ESTONIA & AMERICA unite TO WELCOME DACAPO to centennial
Capo is another wonderful example of the dogs Margman Kennel is producing. We are so excited and proud to have him here in Colorado!
2019 BSZS Judge Critique:
Medium-sized, medium strength and substantial male with a very well-shaped, expressive head. He shows high withers, a straight back and a very good long position of the croup. Well angled fore and very well angled hindquarters. Especially forearms, wide standing, well balanced breast conditions. In the case of straight-ahead and slightly chopped behind sequences, fluid, space-creating gears are presented in good balance. At times, I wish them to be even more powerful.
2019 - At only 13 months old, Margman Dacapo was the 13th best long coat (12-18 month class) dog in the world and 3rd best overall LC puppy in Estonia at the end of the year. Capo was the winner in his class at the Baltic Sieger Show and 1st in wins for club Articus! 🥇🏆🥳
Capo is simply magnificent. He is gorgeous and possesses all of the great qualities a German Shepherd should have. He is attentive and loyal, playful and loving, smart and strong. Capo is masculine yet beautiful. His color is dark and rich, deep black and red. Capo prances when he runs and enjoys both working and relaxing. While catching a frisbee is Capo's current game of choice, he will participate in any activity that involves fetch with his favorite human friends.
We expect Capo's puppies to be amazing family companions that will have the ability to excel in a variety of activities and competitive events.
To date, Capo has produced five litters for us here at Centennial German Shepherds and we have been overjoyed. The quality of his puppies with two different females has been uniform and outstanding. Several of his progeny have gone on to successful careers as service and working sport dogs.
DACAPO - “a” normal hips and elbows
LÜW 0, Does not carry curly coat, DM clear, DNA Geprüft
Capo is the product of two VA1 parents; a rare combination but greatly sought after. Additionally, there are several VA1 dogs in Capo’s impressive background.
Capo is stunning to look at but also has super character to match. His masculine head with a dark black mask is striking. He is deep black and red and his structure is superb. Capo is gorgeous standing in the ring but really showcases his beauty with his effortless and fluid gait. He has multiple first-place wins and we expect that to continue as he continues to mature.
Capo is affectionate, intelligent, and playful. He’s always eager to play a game of fetch but settles down well in the house, making him an ideal companion. He greets strangers with a tail wag and a lick on the face. Capo’s demeanor with other dogs is second to none. He has been instrumental in the puppy’s early development and their eagerness to learn manners and confidence from a seasoned dog. Capo is calm and confident; a perfect balance of gentleness and strength.
Bringing a dog of this quality into the United States is a thrill and I can’t thank Margit Kuusman (Margman Kennels) enough for making this possible.

Wesensbeurteilung AD BH (SV) - IGP1, HD/ED “a” normal, LÜW 0, OCD free, Does not carry curly coat, MDR1 clear, DM clear, DNA Geprüft
2021 BSZS Judge Critique:
Mina is over medium-sized and has good bone strength. Very expressive with strong gray pigment, strong head with dark eyes and firm ears. Standing in good height and length proportion. The withers are pronounced, the back firm and straight, the croup is in good position and length. The forehand is very good, the hindquarters tight-angled. The front and the step sequence are straight at the front, narrow at the back and the hindquarters are not final firm. In motion, she shows a fluid gait with an overall good step size and constant elevation.
Mina is a German import and the daughter of the 2021 female long coat World Champion and the best long coat male in the world in 2022. She is very much her father’s daughter and a super representative of the type he is producing.
She is well-balanced; combining her loving nature with independence and curiosity in seeking out new adventures. She is an explorer but settles down easily on the couch for snuggles and naps.
Mina is eager to please and excels at bitework, which she absolutely enjoys. She is also playful but also gentle with the other dogs and in particular, the puppies. Mina has boundless energy, is friendly, and is happiest spending time with us.
Mina’s parents are exceptional; both VA and both IGP3. She comes from one of the best long coat bloodlines in the world and we are looking forward to seeing her puppies in the future.

Grizzly is a magnificent long coat sable and his progeny are inheriting his impressive type and temperament. Not only is he drop dead gorgeous but he is fully titled in Schutzhund and FH (tracking), along with earning VA at the 2021 BSZS. He is a dark sable male (oftentimes mistaken for a black and red), tracing back to Timo, a VA2 sable who was a true trailblazer for the sable dog. Arex, Grizzly’s great-grandfather, was a three-time VA sable (in three different countries) and half-brother to my favorite sable dog of all time, Margman Torsten. Like Esra, Grizzly has multiple VA dogs in his pedigree.

Esra is the gorgeous black and red long coat daughter of Italian stud, VA1 Groovy Di Casa Massarelli. She has attained the highest working title possible (IGP3); not always achieved by a male dog, but definitely a level worth bragging about for a female. Esra is impressive and her pedigree is outstanding. Esra’s father Groovy has produced superior puppies and following in his father’s footsteps, has shown himself to be a top dog in both the show ring and working field. Groovy’s sire Vegas, is a two-time world champion. I was fortunate enough to meet Vegas in person and he did not disappoint. Staying with our commitment to a solid mother line, Mina’s ancestry boasts many VA and VA1 dogs along with advanced working titles.

Ala Degli Achei (Gucci's Dam)
Ala was bred in Italy by the very successful Deli Achei kennel. Both of her parents are VA1. Her mother is a two time VA in two different countries.
It is extremely important to us to focus on both sides of the bloodlines. Many breeders zero in on the male but the female is equally, if not more important to the breeding, as she not only plays half the role in genetics, but raises the puppies from birth until they are weaned at approximately 6 weeks of age. Her role is vital in their early development.
