Hello,
and welcome to Tanzbär Rottweilers. My husband and I have been
involved in the breed since 1998, when we purchased our first bitch,
Stentfen's Eva Brawn v Adolfe CGC, TDI, TT, from a wonderful breeder
in Alachua, Florida. Eva, or "Poohbear" as she's
affectionately known has propelled us into the hobby of purebred
dogs, and we've been along for the ride ever since!
We
chose the Rottweiler as our breed, because we feel that the
Rottweiler exemplifies the term "all around
dog". Rottweilers may not be top dog in every venue
they try, but their overall ability to turn on and off when asked,
and their versatility and stability of temperament when well bred,
properly socialized and trained is quite impressive.
My
interests lie in training, conformation showing (AKC and Sieger
venues) and occasional breeding. My husband's interest lies in
pampering our dogs. We are members in good standing with The American
Rottweiler Club. I am a member of DVG America, and serve as Secretary
for the Moccasin Gap Working Dog Club, a DVG affiliate. In addition,
I teach a very progressive puppy program through Capital Canine, LLC,
also located in Tallahassee.
We
strongly believe that stable temperament is affected by both nature
and nurture. Our breeding stock is carefully evaluated and health
tested. When we do breed, our pups are well socialized via the use of
the Biosensor Program, daily handling, and interspecies introduction.
They are reared in our home, and subjected to mild stresses that help
to ensure our pups are more than ready to join their new families in
the adventures that lie ahead for them!
We
feel that it is our responsibility to educate people in the
importance of proper research prior to buying a new canine companion.
Adding a dog to your life should not be a spur of the moment
decision. Many people put more research into buying a car or toaster
oven than they do a living companion. The Rottweiler, by nature is a
working breed dog. They are known for their strong temperament, and
often boisterous behavior. The Rottweiler is not a breed suitable for
every home.
Since
we only breed occasionally, we can refer you to other Ethical
Breeders and offer research advice, and are more than happy to do so
to assist you in finding the best possible canine companion, whether
it's a Rottweiler, or another breed suitable for your experience
level and lifestyle.
Thank
you for visiting Tanzbar Rottweilers, enjoy your stay, and enjoy our
dogs... we do!
