Locke (born 1996 as Claire von der Holzheimer Linde) comes from a shepherding breeding line.

We are most grateful to her breeder Edwin Becker, shepherd from Steffenberg/Hessen, that he provided the unique opportunity for Locke and Claudia to learn the classical German style work with herding dogs and his huge flock (about 750 ewes and their lambs).

After having sold their own small flock, Locke and Claudia started their sporting "career" - and Locke successfully passed every single known examination there is for a working dog (exept hunting exams): HGH, Sch3, IPO3 FH2 (successful participant in the German FH 2 Tracking Championship), RH 1 Tr/Fl., LawH 1.

Locke enjoys her retirement as beloved pet - and "leader of the pack" of our dogs.
