Kenzo's Fathers: I Am A Newfoundland

Sparked by Min Inches, we embarked on a small genealogy project of our own to find Kenzo's roots. Together with the registry of the Danish Kennel Club and working-dog.eu, this is what we found out of on Kenzo's father's side.

Kenzo's father was "Odin", or by his official name, "Chaccomo vom Bohrertal", and we were so happy to have meet him once. Odin was a Danish champion and he only had one litter. Following the direct line from father to father, we found our "Adam": Markus, a 100% Newfoundland!

The thing is, if you have a Hovawart and would like to try this with your own dog, you probably end up with Markus as well, as Castor Meyer-Busch is the first "real" Hovawart most of us descend from. Before Castor you will find different mixes of Newfoundland, German Shepherd dogs and the so-called type dogs - the "Hofewart" - the breeders found on farms, resembling their ideal of a Hovawart.

I hope, if one of the people with vast Hovawart databases read this, they could provide me with photo's of some of the ancestors of which I have none.

Coming up, what about Kenzo's mother's line?
