CH. Tapferen's Honkytonk Odyssey
CH Apache Hill's Peyote Odyssey CDX Bronze Producer  X  Tulakes Nemesis die Tappfere
Honkytonk was a beautiful bitch.  She is shown taking Best of Opposite over many top ten bitches at the age of 16 months at a Regional Specialty in Bethel, WA under reknown breeder judge Joan Klem.  In very limited showing she was ranked in top ten.

Honkytonk produced my very successful "D" litter bred to BIS, BISS, Select, CH Degrasso's Jacob v Waxel CD, RTD.  We finished three champions, a CDX, and a PT on this litter.  This litter had many Best of Breed and Specialty placers, including a Group 1 in Stephensville, TX by CH Tapferen's Diego vom Lexus.  Honkytonk was a Producer of Merit for 1998.  I lost my little Honkytonk to cancer in March of 1998. 

Jake won many Best in Shows in addition to multiple Best in Specialty Shows.  He was the second most winning Rottweiler in the breed to date.  This is especially notable in that Jake was retired from the showing at the age of 5 after only two years of being specialed. Jake is now a Gold Producer.  Jake was loved by my good friend Linda Orr.  She lost Jake in early 2003 also to cancer. 

We comfort each other in our loss of these beautiful dogs that did so much to promote the Rottweiler breed in a positive light..
