The best way to describe Aiko is exceptional. She is a large female with extreme prey drives, sound nerves and an open, upbeat personality. Aikos's father is Czar Nikolas z Olde World, BH, TR1, TR2, TR3 H.O.T. Security K9 (Ret.). Niko is an awesome large black and tan dog with a broad head and strong bones. Niko is known to produce very high drives together with strong nerves. As Niko's owner writes, Niko is "good with children and adults, yet watchful of strangers. Calm in a crowd and level headed in stressful situations. Originally a security dog, Niko is now a personal protection dog. Niko is not a sport dog - not equipment oriented (check out his civil agitation pictures and video on the Liberatore Shepherd's website at http://liberatoreshepherds.com) A phenomenal natural tracker, Liberatore is trialing for both Niko's AKC and USA tracking titles. Niko's pedigree includes such notable dogs as Fency Gymor IPO 3; Ben Hozmi ZM, ZVV 3, IPO 2, SchH 3, OP 1; Bob Cega ZM, IPO 3, ZVV 2; Treu v. Schaferstolz SP-PS, ZVV 1; Bojar z Pohranicni straze ZM, ZVV2. Niko's hips are X-rayed and are free of dysplasia and arthritis (at 7yrs of age) with an OFA rating of 'good.'" (Niko's linebreeding: 0-5,5 Fatty Jipor ZLP1, IPO3, ZVV3 (0/0) velmi dobry 5CV5).

Aiko's mother is Egy Aites Bohemia, who is an absolutely beautiful bitch.  As her owner writes, "If her good looks and flawless conformation don't grab your attention all you have to do is take a look at her pedigree. It is truly an unmatched plethora of top dogs. Including such greats as Grim z Pohranicni straze (multi time WUSV), Norbo Ben-Ju (2000 International stud show winner, multi time WUSV, multi time FCI Worlds), Chuna Policia (Titus z Pohranicni straze daughter), Car z Kostolianskej cesty (leading Slovak stud of WUSV participants), Gola od Policie (Gent od Policie littermate), Omar z Blatenskeho zamku, and Gero z Blatenskeho zamku (multi time Czech nationals participant). That is only in her first three generations. Both of Egy's parents, Chayma z PS and Xac z PS are from the Czech Border Patrol kennel, Pohranicni straze. Egy herself is an outstanding young female. She has nice deep, crushing grips, drive that keeps her going all day, an undying love for tracking, a fabulous temperament with both family and strangers, yet, as her pedigree suggests, enough seriousness to make her a formidable opponent. She is truly what we are looking for in a dog. Egy's hips and elbows are X-rayed and are free of dysplasia and can be seen on the Liberatore Shepherd's website http://liberatoreshepherds.com )

Pedigree

Lourda is a good-sized female with strong bones and substance. She is a very happy, upbeat bitch with lots of confidence and is sure in any new or stressful environment.  Lourda has excellent prey drives, as well as a high hunt drive.

Lourda's father is SG-Dante Traho SchH3,FH, KKLl2, who achieved multiple successes in his life including: 2nd place in the 1998 North American Championship (V-288); competed in the World Qualifier (283); 2000 Interstate SchH Club SchH3-V-296, FH-96 (Judge Carla Griffith); 6th place in the 1998 USA SchH3 National Championship (V-286); 3rd lace in the 2001 North American Championship (V-288); and 2001 WUSV World Team Member for USA.  Dante was strongly linebred on working Czech dogs -- and the designation "SP/PS" is consistent throughout his dam's side -- which brings in exactly the type of independent working lines we wanted.  (Additional information about Dante can be found on Debbie Zappia's website,  http://www.proformancek9.com/).

Both Dante and Lourda's dam, Anita Auto Dam, SchH3, are descendents of Cordon An-Sat, ZM, ZVV3, IPO3, who was considered to be the greatest producer of police dogs.  Anita is a descendent of Lord v Gleisdreieck, SchIII FHIII DDR Koer:5436/54, on her sire's side.  Lord was "a top producing male" who was renowned for imparting excellent working drives into his offspring and one of the finest producers of sound hips(producing good-excellent hips around 98.5% success rate). Lord was the Bundessieger winner in 1985, 86 and 87. To add to his credits he earned the East European Champion in 1985 and 87. Lord had a very long successful list of outstanding working progeny. There were 15 BSP competitors within that list." Lord's grandsire was Ingo vom Rudingen, DDR 73841, SchHIII, Kör 5547/33, V, HD-zuerkannt (05-07-1974), who "was an outstanding producer of East German Border Patrol dogs and his name can be found in the pedigrees of many present day working shepherds through his progeny Held v. Ritterberg, Jeff v. Flämings-Sand, Xanto v.d. Gundorfer Höhe, Viktor v.d. Edelquelle & Robby v. Glockeneck. Ingo vastly improved pigmentation and working abilities within the German Shepherd Breed as a whole and produced many fine working shepherds."

Lourda's hips and elbows were pre-tested good at 6 months of age.
