Authorities Search For Woman Swept Away
In Flood
4 Adults, 1 Toddler Rescued Near
North Star Mall
POSTED: 7:36 am CDT August 17, 2007
UPDATED: 12:50 pm CDT August 17, 2007
SAN ANTONIO -- Authorities continued to search for a
missing woman who was feared drowned after she was swept away in floodwaters
near North Star Mall early Friday.
Police said that the woman was driving a Hummer when she drove into a creek
at Thames and York at midnight.
Four adults and a 20-month-old toddler who were riding in the vehicle were
rescued from the top of the vehicle, but the 21-year-old woman was swept away by
the rushing water.
Crews searched a square-mile area downstream from the mall early Friday, but
the search had to be suspended due to heavy rain and darkness.
Crews resumed their search around 8 a.m. and focused around the Olmos Basin
near Highway 281 and Basse Road.
The San Antonio Fire Department, San Antonio Police, cadaver dogs and park
police are following the main drainage canal that flows through the basin to
Olmos Dam.
Authorities said they will keep Highway 281 and Basse Road near the Quarry
Market closed until they find the missing woman.
Search Team Finds Missing Woman's
Body!
Luna's SUV Overtaken By Floodwaters
POSTED: 9:22 am CDT August 18, 2007
UPDATED: 9:33 am CDT August 18, 2007
SAN ANTONIO -- After being missing for almost 17 hours,
a body of a young
woman is found by search team Friday in a flooded area near
the quarry.
More than 10 agencies were involved in the search, officials said.
Because of Thursday night's rains, the floodwaters in some drainage areas
were up to
20 feet deep and overflowing their banks, but the search ended almost
two miles
downstream from the site of the accident, officials said.
"We discovered the body that has been washed away. It was that of a young
female
with blonde hair and blue jeans," San Antonio Area fire Chief Ron
Rodriguez said.
Police said it was around midnight on Thursday when Evelyn Luna, 22, was swept
away by rushing flood waters. She was driving a blue Hummer as it went nose first
into a drainage culvert at
Thames and Langston near the North Star Mall.
Four others inside the SUV, including a 1-year-old, made it to safety, officials
said.
Police said that when Luna opened the driver-side door, she was overtaken by
rushing floodwaters. Hours of searching by air, boats and K-9s produced no sign of the Luna.
Search
crews worked throughout the morning and afternoon until 6:25 p.m. Friday.
"(It was) one of our ground crews from the Technical Rescue that discovered
the body on the bank," Rodriguez said.
That
team was Amy and her German Shepherd "Vachelo von Fenwald".
Luna's body was discovered near the drainage culvert at 281 and Basse --
almost
two miles away from where the SUV was first submerged.

Senta Saves The Day!

"Senta
has become so much a part of our family that
she unhesitatingly placed herself in Harm's Way to
Protect the Family that she Loves so much!"
Our
neighborhood - specifically our block - was being targeted by two young
men who
were primarily interested in vandalizing cars parked on the street and in
driveways.
It was around 3:00 a.m. that the attempted burglary / breaking and entry took
place.
My husband's car was one of the "lucky" ones. Rather
than merely gaining entry to the
vehicle and taking what they wanted, the perpetrators utilized the garage door
opener
that was in the car, walked into the garage (and past my car) and began to
enter our house.
Clearly their intent was Not Friendly! They had just finished
vandalizing our car in the
driveway, now saw another vehicle inside the garage, yet were not
dissuaded about
entering the premises of our home.
Being
in a "dead sleep", I was jolted awake when I heard Senta (who
sleeps on the floor next
to my side of the bed) emit a low, threatening growl, and then she
"took off" like a Streak of
Lightening. Within seconds, I heard the door from the garage to the
house slam shut. The
burglar had cleary been in my house! I reached the laundry room at
about the same time
as Koda (he must have come in from the back yard via the "doggie
door"). Koda immediately
joined Senta who was furiously barking, and Senta remained at Guard..
(If you're
wondering where my husband was when all of this was going on, he was asleep.
It was
not until the dogs started barking in tandem that I heard him say,
" What's going on?")
The
moral of our story is that as much as I love my husband of almost 35 years,
"when
the chips are down, dogs come through for you". There is no
substitute for the unconditional
love, unwavering devotion, and unsurpassable courage of a well bred German
Shepherd Dog!
Thanks Cindy for this marvelous dog!

From Rescue to Romance....

to Release back in the Wild.
On April 28, 2004
as Jackie & I were driving down the country road
returning from our chicken shopping trip for the dogs, we spotted on the
side of the road 2 very tiny baby raccoons approaching the street. I
immediately turned around. By the time we returned, the lady in the
car
behind us had stopped, gotten out of her car and was trying to guide the
babies back from the road with her foot. She was clearly afraid of these
wild
little creatures. We stopped, Jackie jumped out, ran up to the raccoons
and
scooped them up into her arms. The look on the ladies face was of
shock
and amazement. After searching the area we realized that the mother
was
nowhere to be found. So naturally, we took the babies home. It was
estimated that the raccoons were approximately only 7-10 days old. And
so it began, round the clock feedings and caring for these 2 little
darlings
affectionately named Ruba & Rico.

From the very moment they arrived Zeus the German Shepherd took an
interest in these poor little orphans. He was always there during the
feedings
and before long they were cuddling with him as if he was their mother.
The release
actually took 4 months of acclimating them to the outside and
teaching them how to find food and fend for themselves. Fully vaccinated
to
help them be protected from the diseases they could catch in the wild,
the entire process took nearly a year and a half. Food is still left
outside for
them everyday. They still come back and visit often.

Our hats go off
to Jackie, Jamie, and Jessie for raising the babies,
their parents who opened their hearts and their home.
And to Zeus for being the kind of dog that makes us all Proud!
How
Many Dogs Does It Take to Change A Light Bulb?"

Golden
Retriever:
The sun is shining, the day is young, we've got our whole lives ahead of us, and
you're inside worrying about a stupid burned out bulb?

Border
Collie:
Just one. And then I'll replace any wiring that's not up to code.

Dachshund:
You know I can't reach that stupid lamp!

Rottweiler:
Make me.

Boxer:
Who cares? I can still play with my squeaky toys in the dark.

Lab:
Oh, me, me!!!!! Pleeeeeeeeeze let me change the light bulb! Can I? Can I? Huh?
Huh? Huh? Can I? Pleeeeeeeeeze, please, please, please!

German
Shepherd:
I'll change it as soon as I've led these people from the dark, check to make
sure I haven't missed any, and make just one more perimeter patrol to see that
no one has tried to take advantage of the situation.

Jack
Russell Terrier:
I'll just pop it in while I'm bouncing off the walls and furniture.

Old
English Sheep Dog:
Light bulb? I'm sorry, but I don't see a light bulb!

Cocker
Spaniel: Why change it? I can still pee on the carpet
in the dark.

Chihuahua:
Yo quiero Taco Bulb.

Pointer:
I see it, there it is, there it is, right there.....

Greyhound:
It isn't moving. Who cares?

Australian
Shepherd: First, I'll put all the light bulbs in a little
circle...

Poodle:
I'll just blow in the Border Collie's ear and he'll do it. By the time he
finishes rewiring the house, my nails will be dry.
Dear Dogs and Cats
The dishes with the paw
print are yours, and contain your food!!
The other dishes are mine and
contain my food.
Please note, placing a paw print in
the middle of my plate and food
does not stake a claim for it becoming your food and dish,
nor do I find that aesthetically pleasing in the
slightest.
The stairway was not designed
by NASCAR and is NOT
a racetrack. Beating me to the bottom is not the object.
Also, tripping me doesn’t help
because I fall faster than you can run.
Unfortunately, I cannot buy
anything bigger than a king size bed.
I am very sorry about this. Do not
think I will continue sleeping on
the couch to ensure your comfort.
Dogs and cats can actually curl up
in a ball when they sleep. It is not necessary to
sleep perpendicular to each
other stretched out to the fullest extent
possible.
I also know that sticking tails
straight out and having tongues hanging
out to other end to maximize space is nothing but sarcasm.
For the last time, there is
not a secret exit from the
bathroom.
If by some miracle I beat you there
and manage to get the door shut,
it is not necessary to claw, whine, or meow, try
to turn the knob, or get your
paw under the edge and then try to
pull the door open.
I must exit through the same door I entered.
Also, I have been using the bathroom for years.
Canine and feline attendance is not mandatory.
The proper order is kiss me,
then, and only then
go smell the other dog or cat’s butt.
I cannot stress this enough!
To pacify you, my dear pets, I
have posted
the following message on our front door:
Rules for Non-Pet Owners
Who Visit
And Like to Complain About Our Pets:
They live here. You don’t.
If you don’t want their hair on your clothes stay off the furniture.
That’s why they call it “Fur” niture”
I like my pets a lot better than most people.
To you, it’s an animal. To me, he/she is an adopted son/daughter
who is short, hairy, walks on all fours and doesn’t speak clearly.Dogs and cats are better than kids.
They eat less, don’t ask for money, don't whine all the time,
they are easier to train, usually come when called, never drive your car,
don’t ever hang out with any drug-using friends, don’t smoke or drink,
don’t worry about having to get a second job, buy the latest fashions not off the rack,
don’t wear your clothes, and don’t need a gazillion dollars for college!!!And, last but not least...
if they do happen to go out and get pregnant,
you can always sell the children!

A Breeder's Dilemma...

One Dog
Is No Trouble And Two Are So Funny
The Third One Is Easy, The Fourth One's A Honey
The Fifth Is Delightful, The Sixth One's A Breeze
You Find You Can Live With A Dozen With Ease
So How 'Bout Another? Would You Really Dare?
They're Really Quite Easy, But Oh Lord, The Hair!
With Dogs On The Sofa And Dogs On The Bed
And Dogs In The Kitchen, Its No Bother You Said
They're Really No Trouble, Their Manners Are Great
What's Just One More Dog And One More Crate?
The Housekeeping Suffers But What Do You Care?
Who Minds A Few Nose prints And A Little More Hair?
So Let's Keep A Puppy, You Can Always Find Room
And A Little More Time For The Dust Cloth And Broom
There's Hardly A Limit To The Dogs You Can Add
The Thought Of Giving Them Up Sure Makes You Feel Sad
Each One Is Special, So Useful, So Funny
The Food Bill Grows Larger, You Owe The Vet Money
Your Folks Never Visit, Few Friends Come To Stay
Except Other Dog Folks Who Live The Same Way
Your Lawn Looks Atrocious And the Shrubs the Same Too
Your Weekends Are Busy, Your Off With Your Crew
There's Dog Food And Vitamins, Training And Shots
And Entries And Travel And Motels Which Cost Lots
Is It Worth It You Wonder? Are You Caught In A Trap?
Then That Favorite Comes Up And Climbs In Your Lap
His Look Says You're Special And You Know That You Will
Keep All The Critters In Spite Of The Bill
Some Just For Showing And Some Just To Breed
And Some Just For Loving, They All Fill A Need
Winter's A Hassle But The Dogs Love It True
They Must Have Their Walks Tho' You're Numb & Blue
The Dogs And The Dog Shows, The Travel, The Thrills
The Work And The Worry, The Pressure, The Bills
The Whole Thing Seems Worth It, The Dogs Are Your Life
They're Charming And Funny And Offset The Strife
Your Lifestyle Has Changed, Things Won't Be The Same
Yes Dogs Are Addictive And So's The Dog Game!

"Betcha Can't
Own Just One!"

You've Come A Long Way ....

All the German Shepherds who are currently bred, represent over 30 generations of dogs registered in a book of origins. Here is the example of a line dating back to 1899 and representing 31 generations of selection. |
| The very first German Shepherd registered in the book of origins of the SV was called Horand V Grafrath. This dog was the model to write the standard of the breed. He was issued of Karstor (son of Pollux – about whom experts wrote that he’d be better in a zoo than in a field herding the stock - and of Schäfermädchen von Hanau) and of Lene Sparwasser (Grieffe Spawasser x Lotte Sparwasser). On his file established by the SV, one could read that he was born on January 1, 1895. We could have chosen other examples than the ones below, especially from Odin V Tannenmeise via Jeck Von Noricum, but our idea was simple: to show, thanks to pictures, over a century of carefully monitored selection, representing 30 generations of breeding an selection, i.e. over 2,100,000 dogs registered in the German Zuchtbuch. |
| We began with a young dog whose performance was particularly noticed at the 2002 Championship, V13 Doug Von Noort (31st generation F31), whose line can be traced back directly to the first German Shepherd in the SV Zuchtbuch, Horand V Grafath. |
F31 Doug
Von Noort, the best son of Mack V Aducht, classed V13 at the 2002
Championship while he was still young. Indeed, he was born on march 3, 2000
at Edzard Müller. |
Son of F30,
Mack Von Aducht, SZ N° SZ 1995026, born on April 21, 1997 at Mr Messler’s
and considered as one of the best sons of Rikkor V Bad Boll, although he was
issued of one of the very first litters of the double champion. He was
Auslese three years in a row, VA3 in 2000, VA3 in 2001 and VA4 in 2002, in
front of another son of Rikkor, Kevin V Murtal, VA5. |
Son of F29, Rikkor V Bad Boll, VA1 in 1998 and 1999. He is a son of Ulk V
Arlett, born in 1994. In previous years, he had made it to SG1 in 1996, and
VA7 in 1997. Rikkor, SZ n°1919865, not only dominated the show rings, he
also produced excellent progeny groups. |
Son
of F28, Ulk Von Arlett, SZ N°1769704, was born on January 28, 1990. He was
awarded the VA1 in 1995. He was the most used stud in the past 10 years.
This son of Yago was one of the greatest dogs of the decade. |
Son of F27, Yago Vom Wildsteiger Land, VA 1 SZ N°1702119, was the direct
descendent of Uran, through Eiko, born in 1987. |
Son
of F26, Eiko V Kirschental, born on December 26, 1983 at the Fuller’s
family, SZ N°1607402. SchH3/FH Kkl 1 HD-normal. Here is summary of his list
of achievements: BSZS 1985 (JHKLR) SG 1, BSZS 1986 (GHKLR) VA 3, BSZS 1988 (GHKLR)
VA 1 Sieger, BSZS 1989 (GHKLR) VA 3. |
Son of F25, VA 1
Uran Vom Wildsteiger Land, SZ N°1526684, born on March 12, 1981 at Martin
Gobbl’s. He became a legend in the world of the German Shepherd, and left an
imperishable mark in the selection of the breed. |
Son of
F24, IRK v ARMINIUS, SchH3 FH IP3, SZ N°1437161, born on September 1978.
|
A son
of F23, PIROL v ARMINIUS, SchH3, SZ N°1381397, un born in 1976at the Hermann
Martin’s, a former president of the SV. |
Son of
F22, Cliff v Haus Beck, SchH2 , SZ N°1224789. |
Son of
F21, QUANTO vd WIENERAU, SchH2 V-A, SZ N°1381397. One of the four tenors of
contemporary breeding, along with Mutz, Canto and Marco. Born in 1967,
Quanto’s line is unavoidable nowadays, with some of the most representative
lines among his descendents, such as that of Lasso Di Val Sole (Odin V
Tannenmeise), Reza Von Haus Beck, Reza Von Der Wienerau, Dick Vadeloga (Sieger
in 1973). |
Son of F20, Condor v Zollgrenzschutz-Haus, born on October 20, 1962, SZ N°
1038960. |
Son of
F19, Condor V Schnapp, SZ N° SZ 959488. |
Son
of F18, Condor V Hohenstamm, Sieger 1958, SZ N°892021, he was considered an
excellent stud in Germany. He left many descendents, among whom was the
Sieger 1962, Mutz a.d.Kuckstrass. |
| Son of F17, Arko V Delog, SZ N° SZ 820237, an excellent, which however didn’t have the same qualities as other sons of Rolf, such as VA Hardt vom Stubeschacht, VA Brando vom Tappenort, VA Regina von Colonia Agrippina ou VA Bursche vom Pfingsthugel). |
Son of F16, Rolf V Onasbrucker Land, VA 1950/51, SZ N°640721, born on
January 1947 at Herr Dettmer’s. He became the most significant stud after
WWII. He left many major lines, especially that of his son’s, Alf V
Waldort-Emst, which can be traced up to 4 generations with Canto Von Der
Wienerau. |
Son of F15, Lex Preußenblut, SchH III Kkl 1, SZ N°589285, (a determining dog
for German breeding, which became the most influent stud between 1944 and
1946, but left for the United States for 10,000 dollars, a considerable
amount at the time.) |
Son of F14, V Trutz a.d.Schwanenstadt, SchH III MH1, SZ N°518353, which was
the most influent stud of V Preussenblut kennel. |
Son of F13, Ingo V Piastendamm, born on 1934, SZ N°483163, a dog in which
one can clearly see the influences of the bitch Vicki Von Bern, a great
daughter of Klodo x Utz, which was unavoidable at that time. |
Son of F12, V
Gockel v. Bern, SchH Kkl 1, born In 1932), SZ N°439350. |
| Son of F11 V Wiegand v. Blaisenberg, SZ N° ??? |
| Son of F10 VA Baron v.d. Deutschen Werken, SZ N°382838. |
Son
of F9 VA Utz v. Haus Schutting, SchH 3, SZ N°331999, Sieger 1929, was very
different from those “leggy” dogs thanks to his excellent bone structure,
which he transmitted to his descendents. Like many major dogs, like his
father and his grandfather on his father’s side, he left his ntaive country
for the United States. Just like his father, he became a prominent stud over
there, and was very important to help fight against the excessive size of
the dogs. Unfortunately, his fame caused the breeders to over-use him, thus
causing the multiplication of some defaults. |
Son of
F8, Ch Klodo V Boxberg, SZ N°135239 (born on August 20, 1921). He was
exported to the USA a short while after winning the German Championship.
Quite curiously, his small size penalized him in the USA, where he missed
the title of Grand Victor simply because he was a few centimetres to short.
Still, he left over 600 descendents in Germany, but his American career was
not as glorious. |
Son of F7, Ch Erich V Grafenwerth, SZ N°71141, born on July 28, 1918, world
champion in 1920. He was exported to the USA the year after. Before being
sold to the American breeder Hamilton, he produced the most influent and
symbolical dog of the late 20’s, Klodo. However, Erich showed a weakness in
his behaviour during a test of character at the SV Championship. Besides
Klodo, he left many great descendents in several kennels. |
| Son of F6, Alex v Westfalenheim, SchH3 Kkl 1. this dog was known to produce many white descendents. He was the most representative descendent of his father. |
Son of F5, Hettel Uckermark, SZ N°3897, born on July 1907 at Mrs Poppe
(Wiesbaden). This herding dog became one of the pillars of the German
breeding. He became Sieger in 1909. This picture of Hettel is the only one
we have of him (there’s no sign of any other picture of him, herding or in a

greatly influent dogs, such as Hettel V Uckermark or Herta V Kriminalpolizei.
He was considered as a model in the 1900’s. He won the Sieger in 1906 in
Austria, and was even used by Stephanitz himself with many bitches of the
Van Grafrath kennel. He left almost 1,000 descendents in the SV book of
origins. |
