For those who are starting to breed rottweiler, I think it is necessary that you know the story
of one of the most influential breeders in the modern breed worldwide. In the last 30 years,
Xaver Meixner is a legend for those in that the Rottweiler has become part of your lifes
Countless have been the successes in breeding, work and beauty shows. Many of his
specimens have become an important part of schools from other breeders
A new year (2000) and a new century for our rottweiler. I want
start like this story of breeding rottweiler symbol of the last
century. The following is the history of the rottweiler kennel most
important of the last 3 decades, VOM SCHWAIGER WAPPEN,
well known by all lovers of the breed rottweiler. The cattery
name was registered in the early 70's by Xaver Meixner in
Nurnberg. Schwaiger Wappen Why?, because "Schwaiger" is a
small town near Nurnberg and "Wappen" means weapon (coat
of arms).
Lifetime (Gekort Bis Eza). He was also an excellent breeding and he deserves a separate
article. Dingo was a fairly heavy dog, good bone, very good muscled, large size 67cm at the
withers and 56 kg. Dingo and his brothers of the litter "C" above (children of Cuno Vom
Georgshof - HD-Frei SchH III Gek.b. EZA), called
Cuno, Clint and I quote were the first specimens
started giving the reputation of Mexner Kennel,
being Cuno SchH III FH HD-Frei and Clint Gekort
FH SchH III HD-Frei Gekort bis Eza.
The combination "Dingo + Itta" was repeated twice provided the quality (Osko, Orpheus,
Olfa) in 1982 and 1983 (Santo, Simmy, Sandra, Solvey, Sita, Sasha). I'm not afraid to call
the combination Dingo + Itta, as the golden duo of the last century, so that their
descendants showed and continue in the breed after more than 15 generations.

Even in the eighties, the descendants of Dingo + Itta had the qualities we wish to see in
dogs today: - "dogs of large size, strong bone, good angles and psychologically balanced" -.
Many of the descendants of Dingo and Itta had successful Koerung test (Santo, Orpheus,
Nancy to name a few), the dog that got as much recognition of that combination was Santo
(INT.CH WS'86 SchH III FH AD IPO IIIHD + / - Gekort Bis), '86 World Champion and
International consolidate his fame later with his son Benno VD Schwarzen Heide (INT.CH
WS'90 ES'90 BJS'87 Ö-BS'89 SchH III FH AD IPO ZTP HD-Frei III), World Champion,
European Champion, German Champion, Bundessieger, Internacional.Osco and Orpheus
were also excellent and gave rottweiler dogs of good quality. The female Simmy Vom
Schwaiger Wappen was based dog breeding kennel Vom Zimmerplatz and produced the
wonderful Torro and Timm Vom Zimmerplatz. Itta was then cross - litter "X" with Erasmus
Vom Maegeberg (LS'85 Frei SchH III HD-DM-SchH'85). The female Xenia Vom Schwaiger
Wappen played a significant role in breeding Oberhausener Vom Norden, a mother of Bodo,
come and Grief among others. The last two litters of Itta Vom Konigsgarten were with
Hassan (KS'85 AD SchH III HD-Frei Gekort bis).
A grandson of Ives dog, very big, very strong bone, heavy. A dog of 60 pounds or so, a
massive head, dark eyes, a long skull of 18 cm, 68 cm at the withers, 80 cm in length.
Hassan was a great player from the 80's and was used by many breeders to set size, mass
and strength.
The highlight of the combination "Itta + Hassan" was Zeck Vom Schwaiger Wappen
(INT.CHES '89 '90 Ö-BS'89 SchH I AD ZTP HD-Frei), European two-time champion,
Austria, International and Bunni Vom Schwaiger Wappen (IPO SchH I FH I BH ZTP HD-
Frei).
Itta completed their reproductive years in 1987,
having produced wonderful litters of high
quality. Meixner family jealously guard her
trophies and photographs. But the best
memorial to Itta are undoubtedly her
descendants. Nancy did not breed famous or
known dogs, but her daughters called Vicky
Vom Schwaiger and Vinnu Vom Schwaiger
Wappen Vinnu played an important role in the
future of farm Meixner.
On January 7, 1992, Vicky had the litter "R" and was crossed with Doc Von Der
Teufelsbrücke (son of Benno), INT.CH Ö-KS'95 SchH III
FH AD BH HD-Frei Gekort bis. Thus was born Rena Vom
Schwaiger Wappen (SchH III FH AD BH IPO III HD-Frei
Gekort bis EZA), who remained in the kennel and is the
mother of King Kessy and Maya to name a few offspring
From Bessi crossing x Grief (son of an excellent working dog named Ken Vom Sternbogen
(SchHIII FH AD BH IPO III ZTP HD-Frei) whose mother is Xenia Vom Schwaiger Wappen,
born Aki Vom Schwaiger Wappen II, one of the females which is basis at present.From
Dorle Von Der Teufelsbrucke and Orso Vom Kressbach (SchH III FH AD BH IPO III HD-
Frei Gek.b. EZA), was born a beautiful female named Cleo Vom Schwaiger Wappen (SchH
III FH I AD BH IPO III HD-Frei ED-Frei Gek.b. EZA) and his brother Charly Vom Schwaiger
Wappen (SchH III AD BH HD-Frei Gekort bis) who went to Hungary.
In 1995 the Kennel Name "Vom Schwaiger Wappen" takes his daughter Claudia and is
separated into 3 breeders, kennel related,
Vom Schwaiger Wappen (of his daughter Claudia), "Vom Schwaiger Rathaus" (from Xaver)
and "Vom Schwaiger Schloss" of Xaver Meixner and Leni Meixner.
The new Kennel Vom Schwager Rathaus Meixner, repeated three Sometimes the
combination Vaith + Cleo, one between King Vom Schwaiger Wappen and Cleo. An
offspring of this combination is in Russia. And from the kennel Vom Schwaiger Rathaus
already there are already outstanding offspring, as Ben, Etzel, Kliff Vom Schwaiger
Rathaus, Nena, all champions and Ben, Etzel and Kliff with SchH III levels.
Years before Xaver used Harry Vom Hohenhameln, Ferres Vom Hirschenrangen y Noris
VomGruntenblick.
One of the most successful litters was between Noris Vom
Gruntenblick and Rena Vom Schwaiger Wappen, thus born
April 9of 1996, the famous and multi Champion King Vom
Schwaiger Wappen (INT. / DT.VDH-CH Ö-KS'00 FCI -ES
'00 SchH III FH I AD BH IPO III HD-Frei ED-FreiZTP).
Ferres + Aki, born Lauser, Laura and Lexa. The most
successful litter Aki Vom Schwaiger Wappen II was with
Brutus Von Der Hammerschmiede (BS'96 SchH III FH I AD
BH IPO IIIHD-Frei ED-Frei Gekort bis), where the July 9,
1997 was born the World Champion, International ,
Bundessieger, German, Brazil Grand Champion called Onex
Vom Schwaiger Wappen (ADBH SchH / IPO III HD-Frei ED-
Frei ZTP, today in Brazil). His sister Oddesa is an important
part of the new generations of breeding Vom
Kummelsse.Were also born promising dogs cross between
Rick Von Burgthann and Pascha Vom Schloss Obergrombacher.
This is the present and the past of the famous kennel Vom Schwaiger Wappen and its
legacy throughout the world. During long years of work, they raised tens of rottweilers noble
contemporaries global 5 World Champions, 6 klubsieger Germans, 8 champions from
Europe, 10 international champions and many other champions from different countries
where they live dogs of Meixner's. It is also important to remember the historical fact Vom
Schwaiger Wappen dogs because their dogs have influenced many other well known
breeders as Von Burgthann (the first rottweiler of Erwin Busl was Karo Vom Schwaiger
Wappen), Vom Hirschenrangen (owner of Dingo Vom Schwaiger Wappen), Vom Norden
Oberhauser (where Xenia Vom Schwaiger was the basis of females) and many other
German breeders.
The Rottweiler Vom Schwaiger Wappen are in the vast majority of modern genealogy.
Xaver Meixner formed the basis of his Kennel and provided to the rottweilers the prosperity
and love we see today. His work is a classic education and upbringing.The work of the
Meixner family was succeeded by his daughter Claudia in charge of the original Kennel.
Searched in old books and ancient books of German breeding, I tried to find a witness to
the activities of this great breeder, with so much dedication to this breed and with such
brilliant results throughout the world.
Finally, this paper reports part of the history of the largest breeder of contemporary breed,
where a number of lessons have we come from, for example:
1 .- How, from a female and selective breeding work privileging the quality versus quantity,
Meixner succeeded in founding an empire over time.
2 .- Meixner from the beginning and until today, has favored reproductives with excellent
working skills in addition to the virtues phenotypic and clean bloodlines for hip dysplasia. As
in the Germany of that time there was no impediment to use stallions from other countries,
examples of Austria and Denmark were used then.
3 .- The selection method of improving the breed used by Meixner in most of their crosses
was the linebreeding, which after a time it has always been on samples of their own
bloodlines. Outcrossed eventually has to increase hybrid vigor but then returns on a dog of
their breeding, generally
4 .- Meixner, privileged upbringing to maintain the best females of their own kennel or
acquiring other breeding females, based on their own bloodlines. This humility to recognize
that others have achieved success with its pillars, which ennoble and make larger. You
might also be a technique for when you need something else but that comes from our blood
lines (and we know well our own work)
5 .- The clarity Meixner has remained for more than 3 decades in breeding, marking in many
stages the type of rottweiler to be breeding. It only denotes clarity of the goals outlined in its
Plan Breeding.
I think these last 5 points, we must mature and internalize them in our own breeding plans in
order to achieve racial improvement needed on this side of the world. Not merely aesthetic
can be more important than the working qualities, temperament, hip dysplasia control, the
health of our animals, etc. Xaver Meixner is undoubtedly the most recognized and
respected breeder worldwide. Will always be an important part of the history of
contemporary rottweiler.
