DRAGO EQIDIUS "BLOODLINE OF WORLD CHAMPIONS!!"

I would first like to start out by saying thank you to Jan for helping our family to facilitate bringing World Renown and Legendary producing stud dog Drago Eqidius into the United States and to Peter for selling our family his beloved dog! This tremendous stud dog's producing track record is second to none and truly one to marvel at. In Jan's words, "Drago is definitely the best breeding dog I've ever bred- it is like diamond of my breeding. Many of my partners wanted to buy Drago."

We are truly blessed to be able to add this top proven producing Legend to our World Renown stud dog lineup. Drago has been part of our stud dog lineup since May of 2013. He is currently one of the most influential producing stud dogs for progeny suitable for top sport competition and serious Dual Purpose service work.

Drago produces such high versatility, intensity, and working willingness in his progeny, it makes them highly suitable for a huge range of working fields. He also produces absolutely PERFECT NERVE BASE, so you are assured a clear minded dog. He is also well known for producing extremely high intelligence level in his offspring.

Grandson of Drago Eqidius won WM champion!!!!!! and team Slovakia occupied 1 place, composed Chris spod Lazov, Witz Eqidius 1/2 brother of Drago, and malinois.

Out of all of the dogs representing countries around the world, Drago's grandson, Chris won!! The Slovakian Team also took 1st place with two out of the three dogs competing containing the bloodline of Drago.

It is truly exciting to see such a tremendous producing stud dog having such a positive improving impact on the working GSD breed. It is really exciting for Team Slovakia, and for the success of Drago's blood.

Drago is SchH3, IPO3, SVV1 titled, A 1 certified joints, 1st select breed class, V rated excellent working conformation, with a pronounced courage, hardness, and willingness to fight.

Drago is a VERY HARD male with EXTREME hunt drive, a HUGE taste for the work in all three phases, rock solid nerve base, enormously developed grip strength, extreme tracking aptitude, and monsterous ball drive. He is a stallion of a male with the most gorgeous working structure you could ask for in a top producing stud dog. He has a truly powerful build with huge boning, a tremendous head type with a very strong lower jaw, a proper stop, lovely almond shaped black brown eyes, proper ear set, correct front and rear angulation, short coupled with great rear impulsion, and rich dark pigmentation. If I had one word to describe Drago is would be "POWERFUL" because he is just exactly that. He is for an experienced handler only. More importantly is what Drago has produced. He is currently ranked as one of the top producing stud dogs to come out of Europe, and we are blessed to have Drago progeny to offer to our clients for many years to come, as Drago will be part of our stud dog's semen preservation program.

Drago's pedigree is absolutely fantastic and contains top foundation producing/working legends seen top to bottom on both sides.

Drago's dam Nike was truly one of the finest producing bitches seen for kennel eqidius. She produced excellent highly titled working progeny seen in multiple countries. Her most notable producing son of all time is our Drago. She also produced top WUSV competitor Cherry and Norman as well.

Drago's sire is Renowed producing stud dog Nash vom Lisdorferland with a linebreeding on the following highly influential producers that are famous for the preservation of the original working German Shepherd Dog:

•5 - 4............................................. in V Fero vom Zeuterner Himmelreich

•4 - 3............................................. in V Troll von der bösen Nachbarschaft

•5 - 4............................................. in V Askia vom Froschgraben

•5 - 4............................................. in V Kid von der Maineiche

•3 - 2............................................. in V Aly vom Vordersteinwald

•4 - 3............................................. in SG Afra vom Haus Feller

•5 - 4............................................. in Flocke vom Entschenkopf

Drago's exceptional genetics and tremendous ability to impart them into his resulting progeny will make him a true cornerstone for the future of Van Den Heuvel K9's preservation program. His genetics will occupy a very large place in the continued current and future successes of our Famous Breeding Station.
