about Christa Lukas
My
name is Christa Lukas (until 2001 my family name was Christa Decker) and since 1969
I am SV-Member. From the beginning on , I have a deep relationship to the
German shepherd dog, because my father was a fan of this breed - but only an
adorer. So by consequence it was quite usual that we always held a shepherd-dog.
Being 17 years old, together with
my just acquired " Julchen " (without geneological table), I decided
to join a shepherd dog association and made my first steps in the local chapter
of Worms. I had an outstanding instructor and training-supervisor – Heinz
Krist -, but “Julchen” caused some major problems, as my beloved dog was not
able to be instructed for the protection-service.
Since I had
found now a wonderful hobby and marvellous leisure activities, I was sure to
never give these up and got a male shepherd-dog for formation. Then I purchased
" Clark of the Hexentuermchen
" , which I led on numerous checks, matches and also competitions. Being
successful, I also collected important points for the dog leader port badge.
So
by SV I received the "Große SV- Hundeführer- Sportabzeichen"; the "WUSV-Sonderleistungssportabzeichen
Stufe 1", and by VDH the "Große Sportabzeichen".
It was in 1977
when I started to interest in the breed of the German shepherd-dog, just after
the final-instruction of my dog " Eike of the Mohrsteiner Rock " (Sch
H3, IPO 3, FH) . By 19.09.1977 , the name of my kennel
"Vom Heiligenhäuschen" was
then authorized and protected by the SV. From the very beginning, I tried to
focus and strengthen the allround performance - not neglecting the important
anatomy aspects. George
Dietrich, whom many sports association members know as being a performance judge,
gave me profound advice while joining the local chapter of Westhofen.. My first
throw (5,1) fell at 24.01.1978 from the mating " Eike of the Mohrsteiner
Fels " ./. " Rolan
d of the Wohrabruecke ", the later VA
dog.
At
first I only was able to breed very few, since in the meantime I got a family
with 3 daughters, that brought stress into my life. Recently, my kennel is
successfully looking back on 40 throws and numerous dogs have been defined for
further breedings. In 2000 I received the
bronze "Züchterabzeichen" ( breeders badge) and in
2004 the one in silver.
At
February 2009 I was honored for 40 Years of Membership, also my friend Heinz
Krist for 50 Years SV-Membership. Heinz Krist and his wife Marianne are to
now very best friends.
I
hope
and wish that I can follow my passion for many, many years together with my
partner Erich Lucas
