Tiekerhook- Solid as a Rock

Interviews with GSD Legends continues with Koos Hassing - Breeder from Nederlands - Tiekerhook Kennel. Over the years Koos has been very vocal about saving certain working bloodlines and sometimes criticized for his breeding plans. I had the opportunity to sit with him at his home, then visit his training club and really get a glimpse into the laboratory of this so-called 'mad scientist.' Koos actually had Fero vom Zeuterner Himmelreich in his kennel for some time when his original owner was ill. He also had Nick vom Heiligenbösch for some time in his kennel. So it is safe to say he has seen and worked his fair share of working legends! With an extensive background in Law Enforcement his desire has been to produce a German Shepherd with the hardness and temperament for working alongside officers on the street. I have included a small clip of the hours of footage collected during our time together and I hope you enjoy it.
