Craffenheim Lagertha, daughter of Hasko vom Hause Anin and Craffenheim Iris (dam of KUSA Champion Craffenheim Remy-Martin), is every bit the noble, powerful and instinctively intelligent Rottweiler her pedigree promises. Like her half-brother Remy, Lagertha carries a majestic expression, strong drive and effortless willingness to work—hallmarks of her exceptional German working heritage.

Her pedigree is rich with influence from legendary dogs such as Balak vom Hause Anin and Chris vom Schwaiger Rathaus, and you feel it the moment she switches into work mode. Lagertha is biddable, focused and an obedience natural, yet her high prey drive and sharp instincts remind us of her strong working roots.

As a mother, Lagertha is wonderfully fussy, attentive and meticulous, caring for her puppies with a depth of instinct that can only come from a powerful maternal line. She is one of those rare females who seems born to nurture, protect and raise exceptional progeny.

In type, Lagertha is distinctly feminine—a perfect example of old-school German Rottweiler beauty. She carries the timeless look, expression and movement that make the traditional ADRK female so treasured. Outdoors, she is in her element: she loves rain, snow, long farm walks and “hunting” small creatures (though she is never permitted to catch them). Her closest admirers, amusingly, are the farm horses, with whom she shares a gentle bond.

Lagertha is a reminder of the Rottweiler females of decades past—balanced, capable, intelligent, maternal and elegant.

Her legacy is already clear: every puppy she produces carries her grace, her strength and her extraordinary character.
