Aiming for Excellence
A small-time breeder with big-time goals. Quality, ethically bred Rottweilers raised in the Barossa Valley of South Australia — prefix established 1994, in the breed since 1987.
Welcome to Schwartzhund
The Schwartzhund prefix was established in 1994, but the love came first — Rottweilers have been part of this home since 1987. Every litter planned here starts with the same question: does this pairing improve the breed?
That means health-tested parents, honest pedigrees, dogs shown and worked in ANKC conformation and training, and puppies raised underfoot in the house rather than in a run. Over 40 years of learning in the canine world sits behind every decision.

Ten Years On
The Sound of Music litter (2012) and the INXS Songs litter (2022) — a decade apart, one consistent line.
