Our next litter will be in May 2009 by
Kelly Vom Eagle River, a thrid generation Wachtelhund from Eagle River Wachtelhunds, and
Duke Von Der
Balthasarley who is
co-owned with Kraig Glazier. This will be our
“M” litter.
Eagle River Wachtelhunds had
two litters from Bell
Vom Flint Hills Wachtelhunds
and Duke Von Der
Balthasarley in June 2006,
May 2007 and two litters from Quito vom Morretal in May 2008 and 2009 producing
eighteen pups. Four
litters were bred by Nixe Vom Nahetal and Whischo Vom Steinacker in – 1995,
1996, 1997 and 1998, while I was living in Alaska. The 1995 litter produced
seven Wachtelhund pups. The 1996 litter produced nine Wachtelhund pups, another
eight in ’97, and nine in ’98 for a total of thirty-three Wachtelhund pups. In
keeping with the German Wachtelhund Club mandate, the ’95 litter pups were named
beginning with “E” for Eagle River. Subsequent litters were "F", "G", "H",
"I", "J", "K", and "L".
All but seven
Eagle River Wachtelhunds are currently
living. Five died of natural causes, mostly old age and two from unnatural causes. One owner who
lost a Wachtelhund pup to a car accident purchased a second Wachtelhund
pup from my next litter. Another owner of a Wachtelhund that died of natural
causes purchased a third generation Wachtelhund pup from Nixe Vom Nahetal and
Whischo Vom Steinacker, from Kraig Glazier – Last Chance Wachtelhunds.
Three Wachtelhund litters were bred with semen from one
of our Wachtelhunds, Pulas Vom Pohlitz; one by Chad Richardson – Flint
Hills Wachtelhunds in 2004, and two by Kraig Glazier – Last Chance Wachtelhunds in 2005
and 2006.
This year, we will be breeding
Kelly Vom Eagle River,
a third generation Wachtelhund from our original pair.
