Kennel "The Barking Bunch" is very pleased to announce a new member coming from the USA! Keizer is from the famous Castlemtn's kennel. We have met Chris and Vance Knuth already in 2000 at the Specialty in Wisconsin (USA) and have been in contact ever since. The Castlemtn kennel cooperates close together with the Swiss Star's kennel of Bobbie Hefner. Most will know that we have had great dogs from these lines as well! We are very happy and think that Keizer is a real asset for our kennel! Thank you Chris and Vance who made it possible to have this great dog around us.

Keizer 20 months of age

On this video he is 8 years young:

 


General information on Keizer

Keizer is a dog not bred BY the Barking Bunch but bred FOR the Barking Bunch. There are a few names already familiar with the Dutch breeders: the mother of Keizer (Rosie) is a full sister of our female "Swiss Stars American Girl Krizzy"
Have a look and compare these two magnificent girls:

"Castlemtn's Maid in America" (named Rosie)

"Swiss Stars American Girl Krizzy"

 

And how do they resemble their father and mother (both specialty winners!)


Keizer's father  is CH "Stonehill's Jack Dudley". Dudley, a beautiful champion, was selected as father of Keizer because of his bone and his great coat. Hij has a great and also long coat and we see that back in Keizer's coat! Above that is Dudley a great stud for improvement on longevity, orthopedics and movement: what do you want more .....Kerry Waltersdorf, the owner of Dudley, reaches great results in longevity in her lines and we hope to have these genes in Keizer of course.

Watch the video of Keizer as a veteran in the showring at the international dogshow Bleiswijk (2017)

 


Keizer's family

Our friend  Rob Scheffers (photo above) brought Keizer from the states on the flight, Linda van de Braak brought him from Schiphol airport by train

 

here we met at first: at the railway station in Best


  

 

Here is Keizer 14 months young

 Keizer 22 months

Keizer is a calm Berner Sennen! He is sweet and lays just down and watches what happens around him. But he loves to walk and play and to be cuddled. Keizer is a middle sized dog, with a nice sturdy head and he is a good mover. Above all is his great temperament: always loving and not afraid.  

And on this video is Keizer 6 years young (press the play button to watch!)
Have a look and see him jumping, walking, playing and running around;
a great guy with the best temperament ever!!!! ENJOY!

 

 

And in this video Keizer is almost 8 years young for his first dive in the swimming pool:

Wow, wow, wow !!!
Today we were the first time this year with Pepino at an exhibition (SSV Landesgruppenausstellung Kirchhain / Hessen, feb 2018). There, Pepino not only managed the first place of 11 registered males in the open class (Ex.1), but put a lot on it. Pepino became BOB and even BIS:

Öreghegyi-Mackó Pepino (Castlemtn´s Keizer For The Barking Bunch & Öreghegyi-Mackó Likopin Lutry)

A huge thanks to the judge Mrs. Bürgi, who made the BOB possible and to Mr. Gerhards for the BIS
