"The difference between the impossible and the possible lies in determination."
                                                                                                               ~ Tommy Lasorda

YNGO was imported from Belgium as a young dog and was acquired by Mike on the day of his first birthday.  He's been a joy to live with and great fun to train.

I have admired Yngo since I first saw him, and most likely would have made the trip up to Canada to breed to him even if I hadn't married his owner.   Yngo embodies everything that I love in a Rottweiler... a sound mind in a robust body, both of which are constantly ready for anything.  In my years of owning and training dogs, I've not found one yet that I enjoy living with more.

Yngo's accomplishments and offspring speak for themselves.  From his relentless desire to work and his unnerving ability to find humor in that work, to his unparalleled love for children, we've found Yngo to be truly special dog.  The ride he's taken us on during the past few years was more than we'd ever expected!

We have found that Yngo has made a unique contribution to the breed in a way we never thought that one dog could.  He has brought some truly fabulous dog people together.  The support and camaraderie that the Yngo puppy owners have shown each other, as well as the close personal friendships that have subsequently developed, will be Yngo's legacy.  

On this page, we would like to introduce you to the Yngo we love.  Not just our show and working dog, but our very best  friend and companion.  For that is where Yngo is most valued.   Both Mike and I have been in dogs long enough to know that we may never have another like Yngo.  To that end, we are determined to make the most of every day we have with him!

*Please Note:
We will be releasing Frozen Semen from Yngo for a maximum of two breedings per year starting in 2009.  We will be exceptionally particular about choosing these breedings and there may be years where we do not approve any at all.  We thank you for your understanding.  Yngo is very special to us and we are proud of the pups that he has produced during his career.  To inquire about using Yngo CLICK HERE.

 



Yngo was the 2003 MRC Specialty Winners Dog and received an Award of Merit there as well.
Click here to see our 2003 MRC show report!

Shortly thereafter, Yngo finished his AKC Championship, with four majors, in just 11 showings!
He also went WD/BOW and BOB at the ARC Region V Specialty in Hamburg, NY, along the way!

Here in Canada, Yngo is a multiple Best of Breed winner, Group Placer and Multi BISS winner!
We are proud to say that Yngo has been completely owner-handled to every one of his wins & titles.

We did not show Yngo for rankings...instead, we brought him out when we knew his puppy owners would be there,
and periodically to Specialties and Sieger Shows, just to show him off and to let him socialize with his "fans". 
The winning he's done has surprised even us.  Although we're certainly not complaining!

This WAS Yngo's Best of Breed Rosette

Peek-a-boo...Yngo waits his turn in the group.

Thank you to Frank and Cheryl Carruthers
for taking these candids in Brockville, ON.

Yngo's favorite "game"...

Thank you to Paul Wright for all of the photos of Yngo on the Schutzhund field!

Yngo & Mike earned the SchI title on their very first try, going High Scoring SchI with scores of 90-80-94 "a".
(This score also qualified them as a Top Ten Schutzhund I team in 2003!!!)

They earned their SchII on their first try as well!!!


Yngo didn't manage the SchIII on the first try, but we are proud to say that he earned it
completely owner-handled, using all positive methods of training!

As you'll notice, we have more photos of Yngo playing than anything else.
Yngo is truly a family member and he believes that his most important job in life is to make us laugh.


And he does that job well!
Just take a look at what really happened as we attempted to get these photos...

Yngo is the water dog supreme and the king of all sticks.
He can be found at the lake more frequently than at shows or trials.

Yngo's zest for life is contageous...He even knows how to make the Canadian winters fun!

Yngo is shown, above, at age 8 while attending the 2007 USRC North Central Regional Sieger Show.
He may look a bit older, but he's still certain he can run with the young boys...and he did!

Yngo didn't win that day (he was V-3 in the Working Class), but he sure was happy to be back in the ring!!!
