"Nixe"
(pronounced
Nix-sa)



Nixe the Herding Dog
Herding was the sport that we loved best and Nixe proved to
be very good at it.
Nixe and I competed in AKC and AHBA herding events earning
championships in both.
We competed on sheep and ducks. Towards the end of her herding career, we
tried cattle.
Nixe was ready for that challenge telling the cows who was boss.

DC Pepperhaus Nixe was #2 AKC Herding dog - All Breeds in 2001. Nixe is also #1 for 2001 and 2002 in the ARC Top 10 Herding.
On May
19, 2001, Nixe became the
1st Rottweiler AKC Dual Champion
with championships in Conformation and Herding.
(Turns out that she actually finished in February 2001. AKC confusion.)

Nixe the Utility Dog
In 1998, it was my goal that Nixe complete AKC obedience titles through Utility
Dog in one calendar year.
Nixe was just 2 years old. We started out well earning back to back Novice
and Open titles in January 1998 in back to back weekends.
With the rest of 1998 to go, I was pretty confident that we would finish that UD
title in 1998.
Nixe showed me how creative she could be the remainder of that year - not
earning her first UD leg until October and then finishing the 2 remaining legs
in one weekend early in 1999.

Nixe the Agility Dog
Nixe did enjoy agility (AKC). Nixe competed well through Open earning both
OA and OAJ titles. We did manage to earn 1 Excellent Jumpers leg at
the 2000 ARC Nationals.
'99 #1 ARC Top 10 Open Agility

ARC Top 10 Novice Agility

Nixe the Conformation Dog
Nixe was show in the conformation ring by her breeders,
Sandy and Ron Overgaard
of Pepperhaus Rottweilers.
She was the Reserve Winners Bitch Queen before finishing her conformation
championship.
During the time she competed in the ring, the point schedule was such that she
had to beat 26 bitches for a 3 pt win. The good ole days!)
AKC Conformation - Nixe
winning Winner's Bitch along with brother Nitro who won
Best of Winners and Best of Breed that day (4 pt major)!
