We are incredibly excited to welcome this beautiful litter from Utz vom Türkenkopf and Espresso Canine Extreme. With Utz's substantial size, bone and wonderfully social temperament paired with Espresso's beautiful type, rich pigmentation and balanced character, we expect these puppies to have the best of both parents.
As they grow, we will be watching for confident, outgoing personalities, beautiful structure, rich red and black coloring and that wonderful willingness to learn and engage with their people.
The German Shepherd puppies from this litter will be $6,000, come with their full AKC registration and will be available to go home on or after October 29th 2026. Please feel free to reach out to us through our contact channels for more information.
The sire to this litter is Utz vom Türkenkopf, a German imported male whose pedigree represents generations of carefully selected German Shepherds known for health, structure, temperament and working ability. Utz's father line begins with Yandex vom Osterberger Land, a proven producer and son of Yoris vom Osterberger Land (VA9 BSZS), who enjoyed an extensive stud career producing hundreds of dogs worldwide, including progeny successful at National and World Championship levels. Behind Yandex are influential dogs such as Cyrus vom Osterberger Land (2X VA BSZS, VA Belgium), Vegas du Haut Mansard and Pakros d'Ulmental. Utz's mother, Hony vom Türkenkopf, brings together old school genetics with successful modern competition bloodlines through Kong Aukstagirio Aidas, a male who earned more than 20 V ratings and competed twice at the BSZS, including V31 BSZS'25. Deeper into this pedigree are some of the most influential names in the breed, including 5X VA Willy vom Kuckucksland, 2X VA Ober von Bad Boll, Peik and Fight vom Holtkämper Hof, ASAP vom Aldamar, Mentos vom Osterberger Land, Nando vom Gollerweiher, Iliano vom Fichtenschlag and Ghandi von Arlett. The deeper you look into Utz's pedigree, the more impressive it becomes, representing generations of proven producers, competitors and the type of reliable genetics we are excited to carry forward.
The mother to this litter is Espresso Canine Extreme, a beautiful female whose pedigree brings together some of today's most successful German Shepherds with bloodlines that have played an important role in our own breeding program. Espresso is sired by Mio vom Team Hühnegrab (IGP3, KKL), who earned VA4 at the 2023 BSZS before becoming 2X VA1 World Champion at the BSZS in 2024 and 2025. Mio is a son of the world famous Usher aus der Brunnenstraße (IGP3, IFH2, ZAP, KKL), a 5X VA Champion including 3X VA1 BSZS, whose influence as a producer continues around the world. Espresso's mother is our own Whisper vom Holtkämper See, a German imported VA rated female who has proven herself to be an exceptional producer of dogs with health, temperament, working ability and success in sport. Whisper is a daughter of 2X VA BSZS Henko vom Holtkämper Hof and granddaughter of our own Fight vom Holtkämper Hof (VA2 USA'17, IPO3, KKL), one of the most influential producing males in our program and sire of ASAP vom Aldamar. With additional dogs such as Ballack von der Brucknerallee, Remo vom Fichtenschlag and Willy vom Kuckucksland throughout the pedigree, Espresso brings generations of proven genetics together in a female we are incredibly excited to incorporate into the future of Canine Extreme.
