EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures Horand von Grafrath, the founding sire of the German Shepherd breed as we know it today. Born in 1899, Horand, also known as Hektor Linksrhein, was a German Shepherd dog who lived in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. He was bred by German cavalry captain Max von Stephanitz, who was determined to create a new breed of working dog. Horand was a significant figure in the development of the German Shepherd breed, as he possessed the desired combination of intelligence, versatility, and physical prowess. His notable traits, including his distinctive black mask, erect ears, and strong build, set the standard for the breed's appearance. The photograph, taken circa 1900, captures Horand in his prime, exuding strength and confidence. His piercing gaze and alert posture convey his intelligence and readiness to work. This image serves as a testament to Horand's importance in the history of the German Shepherd breed, which has since become one of the most popular and versatile breeds in the world. Horand's legacy extends beyond his physical attributes, as he also played a crucial role in establishing the German Shepherd Dog Club of Germany, which set the breed's breeding standards and promoted its use as a working dog. Today, the German Shepherd is recognized for its ability to excel in various roles, including police and military work, search and rescue, and as a loyal companion. This photograph is a valuable historical record of Horand von Grafrath, the founder of a notable German Shepherd strain, and a reminder of the breed's rich history and enduring appeal.
