Deutsch Kurzhaar - Versatile German Shorthair


Welcome to vom Wüstenjäger Deutsch Kurzhaars!

We are active and committed members of the North American Deutsch Kurzhaar Club (NADKC).
We are committed to the betterment of the DK breed and the German testing system. This is a system that maintains the integrity of the breed through testing and registration requirements. To learn more about the testing and breeding regulations of
the Deutsch Kurzhaar Verband (DKV) & NADKC there is an excellent resource on the Mid-South Regions website.
If you have questions about
our DK's, please feel free to email us.

We attended all events of the Western Region of the NADKC in 2005, Mock Derby, Derby, Mock Solms, & Solms/AZP/HZP. We learned a lot about the tests and the dogs through watching one year prior to obtaining our first pup.
In a visit with Rob Engelking we discussed our desire to obtain a pup in late 2005 and learned of the X litter vom Riverwoods. December 23rd, 2005 we picked up Xantara at the Spokane International Airport.

On August 5th, 2006, we brought home our 2nd DK from Rob and Willy Engelking!
Please check out Alexus vom Riverwoods aka Tiny on "Tiny's Page".
Thank you again for another nice one Rob & Willy!!
