Hey PSD, No Fax is not owned by me, but by the Kollenbergs (kennel "von Norden Stamm") on the Gold Coast. I get to see him work on a reasonably regular basis as I sometimes train at the Gold Coast Club and we also have one night a month where all three local clubs get together and train. I haven't had the oppurtunity to work Fax myself yet, but hopefully that day will come. Reg has worked him a few times and was very impressed by his intensity and extreme bite power. Yes, schutzhund is a great place to show exctly what a dog has got, sure some not so great dogs get through, but it is very easy and exciting to spot a really good dog, regardless of what points score they get! My puppy's drives are very good, I am impressed so far, though she is very active, she is not constantly high in drive but will switch very quickly when the oppurtunity presents itself! Her speed, grip, coordination and focus when in drive are excellent. She also has very solid nerves, near nothing phases her and she won't be pushed around either which is really funny to watch in a 10 week old puppy!! I'm looking forward to her coming on as I have worked both her dam and her dams litter sister (who is in our club) a lot and they are both outstanding dogs, very fast, hard hitting and intense. That combination with Fax is why I chose her litter instead of one of the other Fax litters. Evan
