We imported Colt from Germany in late June 2010.  His dam, Aska vom Forstkamp, produced an excellent first litter.  All 9 puppies ran in a VJP with an average score of 69 points.  All 9 puppies also ran in HZPs with an average score of 185.  Four pups from that litter ran in the 2009 Schorlemer with two placing in the top three (earning 1st-196 points and 3rd place-192 points).  Another finished in the top ten (with a score of 188 points) and the fourth earned a very respectable 180 points.  Eight of the nine puppies were x-rayed with A hips.

Colt's sire is Coach vom Ziegelweiher.  Coach's scores (VJP-73, HZP-193, VGP-325, Prize II) and breed show ratings (v/v/v) speak for themselves.  He also has a very strong pedigree for hip scores.  Although he is a young dog, Coach is already one of the most widely used stud dogs in Germany.  We felt very priveleged to be given a puppy from a breeding of this caliber.  We feel that Colt could be a great addition to our kennel, as well as the langhaar genepool in North America.

Colt is a very happy-go-lucky fellow.  He is bold and yet very affectionate.  Colt has always shown strong pointing instincts, an insane love of the water, a great field search, and a strong desire to please.  Colt also inherited his mother and father's excellent type and conformation earning him the "Best Male" award at the 2011 DL-GNA Breed Show.  He has great bone, super-dark pigment, a beautiful head, and an excellent coat.  Colt has been hunted on grouse, woodcock, rabbits, and waterfowl in Wisconsin as well as pheasants and sharptailed grouse in South Dakota.  He now lives in southeastern Wisconsin with our friend Jason.
