As from the very beginning, the continuing development
of our breeding ideas follows the acquisition of knowledge.
The experiences gained by applying this knowledge furthers the
knowledge acquired.
This in turn influences the further development of ideas.
This is a circle without end.
The journey from our beginnings to where we are today has clearly
identifiable steps. Of course many less noteable events also
occurred that had little, if any, impact on the journey. Indeed
there were directions taken that were terminated when they developed
unacceptable results.
From the many 100's of photos that we have of Rottweilers dating
back to the 1960's, it is difficult to select just a few that
are important and/or special to us. Unfortunately we have not
always kept sufficient visual record of all parts of our journey.
This means that we are unable to share some events, even some
important ones. This also means that some photos used may not
do justice to the particular subject, but they are all that
we have.
Nevertheless looking back over more than 30 years shows that
we have undeniably come a long way in developing consistently
better Rottweilers than those that we had in our early days.
We are much more pleased with our breed type, we rarely experience
structural problems, even more rarely experience bite or eye
problems, but the once guaranteed dark, dark eyes are harder
for us to get today and pink mouths occur more than they used
to. Such is life!
We hope that you gain some enjoyment in looking at some of the
important contributors in our history, all special companions
and friends. We have tried to group the photos into "loose"
combinations to demonstrate definable steps that we have taken
to get us to the present. We hope that you find at least some
of the photos interesting.
