Hi! I'm a a first time DS owner & we are trying to figure out what all the letters/acronyms mean next to the Sire/Dam some I can find $& some having a hard time which makes me think it could be just a name?? We have an 9.5 week old DS his father' name is HAVOK / Ding Dong PH1...trying to figure out what the 'Ding Dong' refers to

Thanks!!

Do you have a BRN number for the dam and sire? That'll tell you more info. It could be the name or the name of the dam/sire combo, like "Big Roy/Kira", or "TWIXX/Bunker". Or it could just be the registered name and aka name. Like Cher Carr's dogs would be SOME LIKE IT HOT "turbo" or something similar. PH1 followed by a number is the KNPV program. PH1 means they completed the first title and the number is their score. The higher the number the better they did. I believe it's a total of 420-450 points (I'm really shaky on the actual points and rules so don't quote me too hard). So a dog with a a number closer to the maximum points did really well. Now does that translate into anything real world? Not really unless you see the dogs performance - hard to tell how the dog bite, if it's a genetic grip, if he's handler hard/soft, socialable, etc from a raw number. KNPV dogs will have sires/dams with PH1 titles.

Seems on Emerald K9's Facebook page it's just an AKA name as they state "here's our newest boy Havock aka Ding Dong." If that's the sire of your pup, then problem solved!

It may actually be Ding-Dong, aka "Havoc", per the video attached to his introduction announcement on Vandalia's website. Otherwise, one would think they would have titled the video "Havoc":

Aside: Is Emerald K9 and Battle Ridge owned by the same guy? Or did one kennel sell Ding-Dong to the other?

Was previously owned by Battle Ridge and imported via Vandalia I believe.

I bought my dog from Emerald Wolf. He is a product of Vandalia Timo and Land of Oz Zeva.
This is the best dog I have ever had the pleasure of living with. Super stable. Takes correction well and is very social. Potentially, smarter than my other kids. They are 28, 26 and 24, by the way

He also keeps everyone out of my yard. No more pesky religious conversion for me.

Got a fair deal on the best dog I ever owned. They are worth a second look.

P.S. - I'm leaving Murphy in my signature, even though he passed a month ago. Little tiny guy left a pretty big hole. Lucky for me Bronson is so large and active.
