"Rufi“, b 2006 ( Ch Red
Rabbits Elliot x Ch Rufus Noisy Ms Hurricane ),49.5 cm, Cystin: ok, - Byron´s young grandson is about
to follow the footsteps of his succesful grandpa both in show ( Rufi won 3
titles shown very rare in 2007) and also
at stud, he got the lifetime breeding license . His own highligts are besides
charisma and well balanced proportions his wonderful typey small dark rimmed
eyes of deep hazelnut colour – very rare nowadays - and his perfect ears. Like
many of his 20 fullsiblings they needed no or almost no glueing and from begin
on they were carried perfect. It proves that he passes his ears very reliable ,
many puppies have natural good ear carriage.
His name is more than aptly –
pics only show a little of his presence, you have to see him life ! If he looks
at you with his small dark eyes, you are lost;-) !
He is a superb and
experienced studdog and able to mate
even very difficult bitches – he
convinced all 16 up to now and is sire of 93 puppies (march 2010) .
A summary after 15 litters ( 86
puppies) have grown up a bit and I
visited them several times , let me
state that Rufi stamps his get very strong
:
-
especially nice
temperaments with a special eyecatcher touch on many of them
-
he is able to pass his perfect ears quite
dominant !
-
excellent movement
with well angulated shoulders and hind
-
excellent coat with
red natural colour
-
well balanced heads
with the desired forefaces and small dark rimmed eyes and dark pigments
-
size depends on the
bitch mainly
-
his first tested 13 puppies show normal cystine testresults
Here is
his excellent first breeding license exam result (german) :

At almost 9 weeks of age, fellow
breeders were invited to follow the presentation of the puppies to this
critical public ;-))) .
It was a great sunday afternoon with a
warm welcome, several tasty cakes, and coffee . And – same breeders, different
litters, interesting discussions!
The 3
boys…
...and here comes their sister , who is
not easy to catch in a picture;-) .
They were almost 9 weeks old then.
A
very even litter of same type, with
excellent red jackets( not trimmed yet)
, long heads with pleasing forefaxed
and small dark rimmed Almons eyes, the ears look fort hat age perfect ( the
earliert they´re up, the more problems they give later) and small excellent feet, excellent topline/tailset/carriage and
movements that convinced us!
P litter Akazienhain
7 puppiers were born at Kennel v
Akazienhain august, 2.
You can read all about their weekly
progress in the Welpentagebuch (in german)
At 8 weeks age the little Redheads were
“ quality controlled” by fellow breeders who met and spent a perfect sunny
Sunday afternoon discussing the all-time-favourite
themes of Irish Terrier breeders and enjoying the hospitality ;-).
First the 3 girls….
……and here are the 4 boys
at the age of 8 weeks the 28 september
Also this litter looks very even in
quality, also here we saw excellent toplines and racy built bodies,
tailsets/tails and angulations of best quality. Very typical nice heads and the
desired expression with small dark eyes,
promising ears , neat feet and excellent bones. Bite excellent, all
puppiues relaxed and well socialized – now their new life can start with the
new owners!
…and mum Katie had a little milk still
for her 7 puppies !

Ch Rufus Look At Me!
1999 |
at 10 years july 2008 |
"Byron“, 1998 -
2008(Merrymac Lollapalooza - Rufus Magic Polestar), 50.5 cm , cystinurie
tested: clear, no CF, 13 of his 71 offsring is tested for CU and clear – we
lost him too early because a brain tumour, no cure was possible….
He started his show career with a
BIS puppy and continued with many BoB in strong numbers of competitors. He was
awarded second best male in a hard competition at the Swedish speciality show
among many famous champions, European and world winners with only 10 months of
age and gained the most attractive junior title in Germany " Bundesjugendsieger
99" and became Klub für Terrier Junior-Champion (with 4 CCs).
Byron finished the 2 German Ch titles in 2001.
He had an enormous ring-presence and great personality - this was visible
already with 4 weeks in him, so his name!
His head and expression was typical in the tradition of his line - combined
with his elegant outlines and excellent elastic movement: I consider him
being the best terrier I ever bred.
What I judge the most
important in his offspring are their
small, dark irish Terrier eyes and the typical dhurty expression, well balanced
heads with excellent forefaces, correct bite,
excellent toplines and tail set and carriage and they all can move
really excellent!
Byron finished his showcarrer in
2003 at the World Dog Show in Germany , being judged by Sean Delmar, IR, as the best german bred & owned male
of the entry of 83 .
He has 71 offspring (31/40) .
we`ve storeed frozen semen from Byron
for about 3 litters, to be able to have his genetics still available in the
future. His semen was excellent in quality and reached > 70 % forward
motility after thawing.

"Speedy",
born 1997 (Ch Merrymac Don`t Blame Me - Rufus Magic Polestar) who lives in
Finland, started his successful show career with many BOB in the puppy-class
and continued to be best Irish Terrier No 3 in 1998 and was Top winning Irish
Terrier in Finland 1999, always owner-handled and prepared.
Speedy got merits for his excellent size,
conformation, movement, ears and coat from many judges of different
countries.
He is not only a show dog, but also a successful agility dog and is
track-trained also. You can visit his own homepage (see link). His first
excellent offspring shows that he is able to pass his qualities. One son “F Ch
Jackpot Tarzan” was best male No 2 at the Finnish Club show 2002 (17 males
competed) and also gained the title of
Top winning Irish Terrier of the Year. “He is pictured below, and a sire of
several litters .
Now a
granddaughter of Tarzan and great-granddaughter of Speedy is our new junior
bitch Ruska!
