He is very strong - his favorite toy is flipping a concrete block over and over. He has managed to escape from most kennels and he knows how to open crate doors. He has the characteristic DDR wedge-shaped head and large bone. He is energetic and has very nice structure. His dam and granddam are V-rated black dogs. His grandsire Tino vom Felsenschloss is also V-rated and has done well in the German regionals. Julius is linebred on the famous Lord vom Gleisdreieck, one of the best working dogs to come out of the former East Germany.
