   Viggo was bred by Tammy Marshall-Weldon, and was born at her kennel, Swift Run Dobermans, in Bowling Green, KY on 7/2/06. Her website is www.swiftrundobermans.com . His pedigree can be viewd at: http://www.dobermannvereniging.nl/modules/pedigree/pedigree.php?pedid=172352
   Viggo is being trained for the sport of schutzhund. He has excellent drive for food and toys! He loves tracking, is a quick learner in obedience, and has a nice calm focused grip in protection. Now if only I were a better trainer! 
    I hope to take Viggo all the way to a shc3 title, and hopefully we will compete as a team most of his life. His dad is over nine years old and is still competing well at the national level. Viggo has big paws to fill! I think this boy has a bright future ahead of him, and I look forward to our accomplishments together. 
      Check back in the future for updates on his acheivements!
