About Sierra Gold Rottweilers

 

Hello. Thanks for visiting the WWW home of Sierra Gold Rottweilers. We live in the Nevada State Capital of Carson City, located about 35 miles south of Reno, a short drive from beautiful Lake Tahoe. Our "high desert" climate is somewhat cold, but mild (snow wise) in winter, and has hot dry summers.

 

 

Sierra Gold Rottweilers - Home Sweet Home

We've been in love with Rottweilers for the past 19 years. We adopted our first Rotti/GSD mix male "Coaley" from an elderly lady who had to place Coaley after her husband passed away. "Cassi" a short stout female, most likely of German origin was picked up wandering around Reno, NV. She "found" Janet while we were on a spur of the moment visit to the Reno Animal Shelter. Coaley was 15+ years old when he passed, and Cassi (featured in the two photos below) was around 13+ years old when she passed Over The Bridge. Please be sure to read our feature dedicated to Cassi - Gallery From The Heart. We were very fortunate to have started in confirmation showing with an exceptional pair of litter mates in 1997, the "Dynamic Duo" "Gandy" and "Demmi," from Mike and Dianna McKinzie, formerly "Sandov's Rottweilers." Over the years we have enjoyed showing our dogs all over the US.

*FLASH* Bannor's sister, "Multi BOB/ Group III /BISS/BOSS/Multi AOM / Am CH "Sierra Gold's Bea" took Best in Specialty Show at 10 months old [possibly a 1st for a Rottweiler puppy] and finished her AKC Championship at 13 months old with her third Major [4,5,5] taking Winners Bitch over 151 entries at the 2003 ARC Nationals in Greeley, CO. :-) For 2003, she was rated in the Top 20 in two systems and the #5 Rottweiler Bitch! WOW!

Bannor and Bea's younger sister CH Nighthawks CallGirl v Sierra Gold, "Trix", and our Ellie/Cahill puppies - CH Sierra Gold's Gustav Maximus, CGC - "Boomer", Sierra Gold's G.I. Jane, "Ginger", and Sierra Gold's Gladiator, "Bubba" - are all making us very proud. Our young girl, Sierra Gold's Heart Breaker and our new import, Ona von Kelemen "Ivy" are continuing the tradition of excellence.

 

We have been active in Therapy Dog work, conformation, training, obedience, agility, herding, and are members of various National and local dog clubs. Janet is an AKC Canine Good Citizen (CGC) tester, a former 4-H leader, and founder of two 4-H Therapy Dog Clubs here in Carson City.
