"Charli" is rated Korclasse 1

2010-10-31T05:24:00.000-07:00

Our Stud Charli Kampftrieb at the New England Regional Conformation Show and Breed Survey, where he was rated Korclasse 1 and is Recommended for breeding.

What is a Korclasse ?....

To obtain a Korclasse a dog is evaluated by a judge during a breed survey. A breed survey is the ultimate instrument used as the selection method for the German Shepherd Dog Breed.

This certificate follows a special procedure where the breed survey judge evaluates the dog’s temperament in different stimulus situations. The dog must always demonstrate a friendly and self-confident character and in any situation, must show control even when in confrontation with its own natural instincts.

After these tests the dog will be measured, weighed, and anatomically analyzed in the stand position and While moving. Based on each dog’s overall evaluation, it will be awarded the predicate Class I or Class II. Of course, not all dogs will be able to reach the level of these certificates.

The requirements to enter a dog in the breed survey event are not easy to achieve. They must be registered, absolutely healthy, a minimum of 2 years of age, successfully complete an endurance test "AD", receive a conformation rating at a breed show, obtain a Shutzhund performance title, and must have certified hips.
