"A real standout in a class of 8.  Extremely handsome male that posed an outstanding picture of character and attititude when either posed or in motion.  A lot of maturity for such a young dog.  Very richly pigmented an excellent shoulder, firm back, sound temperament, scissor bite, excellent head.  Powerful ground covering gait yet easy balanced mover."

-Lew Bunch

GSDC of America---1983---Maturity Victor & Select #2

"Medium size, beautiful extremely exciting side mover, sound coming and going.  Rich dark pigment good bone, good topline, handsome expression and a fluid mover with extension and underdrive.  Decision between him and the now Grand Victor Ch. Sukee's Mannix was extremely close."

-Helen Miller Fisher

GSDC of America---1984---Select #2

"Medium size dark black and tan, excellent secondary sex characteristics, good back, very fluid with good suspension, very deep in body.  It was very close decision was based on the fact that Ch. Cobert's Trollstigen took less steps covering more ground with more desire to go on this day."

-Fran Ford

"I've judged him before, and in today's competition, one of the best. On a loose lead, nothing changes, and at a slow or medium trot, he is hard to beat. Not extreme, but with excellent balance and a flawless topline, he covers the ground with ease and efficiency. Medium sized and deep bodied, he is not everyone's favorite style, but it's quality that counts and he has it."

-Alan Sandell

GSDC of America---September 28th, 1985---Select #4

"A beautifully pigmented, medium-sized black and tan male. He has a masculine, well shaped head with good expression, a well formed neck with a high wither and a good topline. His croup is well formed and his tail well set into the croup. He makes a beautiful picture standing and is very nice coming at you. He has a fluid ground covering gait but does not seem to have the same desire to perform as the dogs that preceded him: Ch. Ossipee Caesar v Clover Acres, Charisma's Stonewall Jackson, Chieftain's Kharu."
