Virtus House Kennel (VHK), a cornerstone of K9 Solutions Australia, is thrilled to announce the arrival of our highly anticipated VHK Echo Litter.

This exciting new addition is led by the incredible VHK ERIS, a standout from our renowned Non - Vactro 'E' Litter, who has given birth to nine strong, healthy pups. Both mother and puppies are thriving, and we couldn't be prouder of this significant milestone in our kennel's legacy of excellence.

This achievement marks another step forward in our mission to produce exceptional working-line dogs. Our commitment to upholding the highest standards drives every aspect of our breeding program - from selecting sires and dams with superior genetics to ensuring the well-being of all our dogs. We aim to produce elite working dogs who excel in roles that demand intelligence, courage, and resilience.

Breeding high-quality working-line Dutch Shepherds is a demanding process that requires expertise, careful planning, and unwavering dedication. At VHK, our focus extends beyond producing puppies; we are committed to fostering each dog's health, temperament, and workability, ensuring they receive the best possible start in life.

Raising a litter of nine working dog pups requires incredible effort, meticulous planning, and tireless dedication. From countless sleepless nights to the painstaking care and attention given to each pup, every effort contributes to their healthy growth and development.

The team's unwavering commitment to providing a nurturing environment - ensuring proper nutrition, socialisation, and medical care - has been remarkable. It is a true testament to the passion and dedication of each team member, and we couldn't be prouder of what we've accomplished together.

Rare and highly sought-after genetics, known for producing strong, driven, and well-balanced working dogs, are becoming increasingly hard to find - even in their homeland of the Netherlands. The VHK Echo Litter represents a unique opportunity to continue these exceptional bloodlines and contribute to the future of elite working dogs.

ERIS embodies the perfect blend of drive and balance. Her pedigree is impressive, with her siblings making waves in military and police service. ERIS herself hails from an exceptional lineage, with parents who have consistently proven their worth.

VHK EURO, her dam, is renowned for producing high-drive offspring that excel in working roles, solidifying his place as a producer of champions.

Crusader RAGNAR, her sire, is a powerhouse renowned for siring balanced and versatile dogs. His lineage traces back to the legendary MANNI BRN 19019, a name synonymous with strength and performance.

The sire of the Echo Litter, K9SA DEXTA (Van Kampftrieb HEKTOR), represents a rich heritage of old-school KNPV bloodlines. Formerly known as Van Kampftrieb HEKTOR, DEXTA's pedigree includes some of history's most celebrated working dogs.

His father, Boy Van Kamphuis, a Dutch Shepherd of legendary status, stood out for his immense working drive, fearless attitude, and impeccable nerve.

His mother, Exi Van Kampftrieb, descended from Danko Jochems and Anja Van Dobelaar's elite breeding, combining traits that define the pinnacle of working dog excellence.

As the VHK Echo Litter embarks on its journey, we eagerly anticipate watching these pups grow and develop into the exceptional working dogs they are destined to be. With their world-class lineage and the dedication of the K9 Solutions Australia team behind them, the future looks incredibly bright.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to everyone who has supported us on this journey. A special thank you to Sires on Ice - WA for their invaluable assistance in making this litter possible.
