D1, D2, S1, HZP 167, VGP1, BTR, VBR, CAC,

Ilka is the daughter of Bonny KS von der Madlage and Pax von der Wenge.  This breeding was so successful in Germany it was repeated four times (E, F, G, and I litters) and produced 2 KS titles, 3 IKP Prize1 and numerous VGP Prize1.  Ilka is excellent in the field with a 4H in pointing in her VGP and took a Best of Breed at a conformation show in Germany. 

Sire: : Rolf KS Birkenwald
D1 S1(J)  HZP183 VGP1 BTR SW1 IKP1 HD0 Fw:V

Rolf is one of the top studs in Germany and has produced many fine pups including 5 KS titles in the 2008 Kleeman. Rolf has a reputation for producing good water dogs with calm termperaments. 

Cati was imported from Germany at 10 weeks of age after many conversations with breeder and friend Bernd Krüger.  She showed an early love of the water and has always been very birdy in the field.  Her search is fast with a medium range that can get roomy in open areas.  Her water search is thorough and once she crosses duck scent it is game on!  Cati is also an excellent blood tracker. 
     Cati's temperament is high powered in the field but she switches off in the house. She is excellent with young kids, pups, and other dogs. She has been easy to train as she is a natural retriever and very cooperative.   Her HZP(w/o hare track) score of 191pts(with a 12 in Duck Search) is indicative of her all around natural ability. She earned a Prize1 in VGP at 2 1/2 and has just completetd the NAKP with a Prize 1 and a perfect score of 136 points with a 4h in water which made her the highest scoring DK.  She has also passed her NAVHDA Utility Test with a Prize 1.
     Cati is a substantial female with excellent conformation as is evidenced by her V rating.  She was the V4 female at the NADKC Annual Meeting in 2009.  Judges  written comments were: "Elegant female with moderate bone, top and bottom lines correct, angulation correct, very nice balance, excellent movement with great presence"
