I would officially like to welcome Kara von Hoch Raiffeisen to my kennel, who came to me as a surprise, she was not planned, however always meant to be here, to be a part of my family. I acquired Kara at 2.5 years old, she did not have much training, and she spent most of her life living in an outdoor kennel. With my pack of unaltered females, retired senior females, and young pushy puppies I was most definitely worried about integrating Kara, and making this a successful home environment. None of what we have achieved so far, in the two short months that she has been home, would have been possible without her impeccable character and temperament. Impeccable, is an understatement for Kara; she is neutral, not reactive to dogs or people, she is smart, observant, affectionate, willing and has settled down on the family couch like an old timer.

​

I am lightly beginning to train her, I would like for her to be shown and trialed, her genetics are very much capable of top level sport, law enforcement work, but most importantly, companionship. The goal is to earn a show rating, a character test, and an entry level obedience & traffic test for this year.

Kara, comes from an SV-WUSV Performance Breeding, this means both of her parents were fully health tested and titled prior to breeding. Kara herself is fully health tested, dentition is documented and certified on her pink papers via SV (Germany), and I completed the optional LTV/LUW, lumbosacral transitional vertebrae test on her privately via the Bern Tellhalm, and she was evaluated with Type 0, or normal lower spine, as well as her SV DNA is officially On File. 

Imported from Germany, Kara is a stable and secure dog with a clear head. Kara is neutral around strangers and does not seek affection from new people, rather she is extremely handler oriented.
