⭐ VP5 Amari vom Faehnrich

Six dogs. Six outstanding placements. One weekend we will never forget. ✨

We are especially proud to celebrate VA3 Tharik vom Türkenkopf and this incredible accomplishment. To see him earn the prestigious VA rating at the Canadian Sieger Show is a moment we will treasure forever. Tharik continues to prove himself not only through his own achievements, but through the quality of the progeny he is producing.

And what an incredible feeling to watch the next generations of Vom Faehnrich step into the ring and shine. From our working-age dogs to our promising youngsters, seeing them recognized at this level makes all of the years of dedication, planning, training, conditioning, and belief in our breeding program worthwhile.

A sincere THANK YOU to the hosting club and organizing team for the tremendous amount of work that went into making this event possible.

We would also like to extend our appreciation to the SV judges:

🇩🇪 SV Judge Torsten Kopp
🇩🇪 SV Judge Andreas Weigel

Thank you for your time, expertise, and dedication to our breed. It was an honor to present our dogs under you.

To our handlers, helpers, friends, family, owners, and everyone who stepped up to help us inside and outside of the ring — THANK YOU. ❤️

Dog sport truly takes a village. Every person who held a leash, helped with conditioning, supported us ringside, worked a dog, encouraged us, traveled with us, or simply believed in what we are doing played a part in this weekend.

Most importantly, we thank God for continuing to guide us, bless us, and allow us to live this incredible journey. 🙏🏻

We came to Canada with dogs representing multiple generations of our breeding program, and we are coming home incredibly proud.

🏆🇨🇦 A LEGACY PROVEN — CHAMPION VA3 THARIK VOM TÜRKENKOPF 🇨🇦🏆

Some achievements are bigger than a placement.
Some moments define a legacy.

We are beyond proud to announce VA3 Tharik vom Türkenkopf and his incredible accomplishments at the 2026 Canadian Sieger Show.

✨ VA3 CANADIAN SIEGER SHOW 2026
🔥 TOP PERFORMANCE
🏆 TOP PROGENY GROUP

Tharik has proven himself time and time again in the show ring and through his performance — but perhaps the greatest measure of a sire is what he leaves behind.

His progeny spoke for him.
Tharik proudly presented an outstanding progeny group spanning from the Working Class all the way to the Puppy Classes — multiple generations standing together as a testament to the quality, consistency, character, structure, and working ability he continues to produce.

A great dog can achieve in the ring. A great sire leaves his mark through what he produces. ❤️🐾

This weekend was about so much more than one incredible placement. Tharik once again proved the quality, consistency, and versatility he is producing through his offspring.
Seeing the influence of Tharik represented throughout the Sieger Show was something truly special.

Seeing his progeny standing proudly in the ring, from accomplished working dogs to the promising young puppies of the future, was an unforgettable moment.

Champions win.
Great sires reproduce greatness.
Legends leave a legacy.

Tharik continues to prove that his greatest accomplishments aren’t only the titles before his name — they are the quality he passes forward to the next generation. ❤️

We are incredibly grateful to his breeder, every progeny’s breeders, owners, handlers, trainers, and supporters who believed in Tharik and has helped develop and showcase his progeny. This accomplishment belongs to everyone who has played a part in his journey and in the success of his offspring.

ANNOUNCEMENT “Ulrich Vom Faehnrich”has a wonderful new home!!!

🐾 HELLO! 🐾 We are looking to “rehome” this handsome boy! Due to no fault of his own. His previous owner is very ill needing hospitalization and multiple surgeries. She is no longer able to provide a correct environment or care for a ( just turned 3 ) young male German Shepherd.

*Preference as an only dog since he has been the only prince in his home for the first 3 years of life.

He is from titled, health tested, temperament proven West German Showline parents. He is neutered.

If you are an approved home, we would love to know he is getting all the love you have and lots of floppy frisbee retrieving ( his favorite obsession! )

Serious inquiries only; contact Kathy for information: 815 212-9377
