About ten years after the Phantom I (pictured above) became part of Rolls history, the Hoytt family began breeding Dobes. While the Phantom can no longer be found at even the most exclusive showrooms, those seeking the ultimate companion Dobes still can enjoy the finest example of the breeder’s art at the House of Hoytt.
Now about the Dobe pictured above: first and foremost, this girl was a companion, preferring to be at her owner’s side whenever possible (about eight days a week and 26 hours a day) and enjoyed travelling in her convertible with the top down. At night, she liked cuddling with her human “other-half” and playing Frisbee until the humans called the game. This Dobe knew when she won, looking after each award moment for her ribbon which she'd carry proudly out of the ring. She also knew that she would receive a special treat by trading the ribbon for a dollar (yep, a dollar bill). She would carry the money to a booth that sold what she was after and would find the person she thought was in charge, giving up her dollar before she began her search! This girl knew how to shop! Teak thought everything could be had for that one dollar and no one told her differently.
To her friends, she was Miss Teak; to her “mom,” baby Teak. But she also had a professional side - for the House of Hoytt this wonderful companion became a true competitor substantiating that our early profiling allowed us to select a pup that could handle all areas of life being considered. She was personable to her friends, tough to the un-welcome and in the performance ring she was the other half of a hard-to-beat team. She received Top 20 status four times, DPCA National #1 as well as top Working Dog (all breeds classified Working) under Delaney System. She was DPCA National Veterans' Class #1. Teak competed in Schutzhund (VPG) trials, AKC trials, UKC trials and international competition. She went on to receive her WAC (Working Aptitude Certification) under the German structured WAE test ( Working Aptitude Evaluation ) and also gained her TDI (Therapy Dog degree). She gained so many awards and degrees I waited until the last to proudly present her formal name. So hang on and here goes...
