In July of 2012 Sandro placed SG9 in the youth class at the Landesgruppen-Zuchtschau LG 14/ 2012 in the North German state of Baden-Württemberg, Germany. LG - Landesgruppen are regional Shows. There are approximately 1500 German Shepherd Dog clubs in Germany and these are under the jurisdiction of the 15 Landesgruppen clubs. The LG shows are larger than the local shows and the judging and rating requirements are stricter. Landesgruppen Sieger and Siergerin titles are awarded.SG = (Sehr Gut) Very Good. This is the highest rating in the Young Dog and Youth Class, for those dogs that fully conform to the SV breed standards.
In August of 2012 Sandro was ranked SG42 youth male in the world at the Sieger Show (BSZS) in Ulm Germany, the pinnacle of GSD conformation shows.

Judges report BSZS SV 2010 A far relaxed anatomically hochstehender Furbo son, the mother goes to Vegas. Urbo is übermittelgroß, mittelkräftig, full-bodied, very well pigmented with very good expanding jerk. Very strong head, dark eyes, high withers, straight, firm back, good length and situation of the croup. Forwards well, very well angulated rear, balanced Brustverhältnisse, straight front. Front straight, shows Urbo liquid, harmonious gait with vigorous after thrust and good reach.
Young Lisa Dieterich was only 8 years old when Zamp was born, nonetheless it was she who picked him out from the litter, Lisa has often recounted that, "when he was young he was a no good dog, very long and croup was not good also” When asked why she chose Zamp as a puppy, she replied, “I just loved him the most because he was the one who was fat and always wanted to sleep”
In October 2002 at the age of 10mths Zamp was entered into his first show at Heroldsberg near Nurnberg and Zamp gained the grade of very promising taking 1st place in the baby class. During the following year and in readiness for the forthcoming Sieger show, Zamp was vigorously campaigned; he remained unbeaten with a show record of 10 first places. The remainder of his story is recorded in historic archives of the SV when at the Bundessieger held in Ulm SV judge Herr Bernhard Norda awarded him SG1 and title of 2003 Junghund Sieger. Returning to the city of Ulm in 2005 Zamp presented his first progeny group having being at stud for the short period of 18mths (this is due to SV rule of no propagation allowed prior to 2yrs of age) all offspring were only aged between 12-18mths, nonetheless the sheer class and future promise was evident.
In 2006 the Sieger Show was held in Oberhausen where in glorious sunshine Zamp presented progeny for the 2nd time and a more awesome progeny group had not been seen from any sire to date. Paraded around the packed stadium to rapturous applause there were even certain sections of the crowd seen to be giving the group a standing ovation. The show had never witnessed a showing of such affection or widespread approval for any sire and his group of progeny. The next day during a torrential down pouring of rain Herr Sheerer judging the Adult Class moved Zamp up one place from his initial 2nd position into 1st here we had another great moment in Sieger history as with arm outstretched in the air his now 20yr old handler Julia, clad in soaking white tracksuit waved constantly to the cheering crowd whilst somehowmanaging to keep control of Zamp and her feet from slipping as she continued to gait him around the saturated ring.
After his win at the Bundessieger Show, Zamp attended the 2006 World Show held in Dortmund when taking the lead herself this time, Lisa steered him all the way to Best In Show and to the title of World Sieger. Funnily enough, despite all his other major wins and coveted VA titles this win, at an All breed show in Dortmund (albeit the world show), is the only one recognized by the British Kennel Club as his qualifying entry to Crufts 2008 where his attendance lent for more history in the making. Here a trilogy of firsts started to unfold a first for Reinhard, Sigrid & Lisa entering British Shores, a first for a German Sieger being exhibited at Crufts and therefore a first time any British judge had the privilege of judging one. As we all know he came, he saw and he conquered and is so far the only dog to be awarded a Commemorative Achievement Medal from the British Breed Council of Clubs.
What BSZS Judges have said about Zamp
Judges report BSZS 2006:
VA 1 [Ov. 3- Dev. 3+] (c) Werner Dalm
Breeding judge Heinz Scheerer:
The winner is a large, medium-bodied, full-bodied, remarkably type and expressive dog. He has very good body proportions, a strong appealing head with good mask. Distinctive, high withers, straight firm back, very good location and length of the croup. The scapula is of correct length and correct position with unattached upper arm, the hindquarters have very good angulation with wide legs, balanced advantages and lower chest, straight front, slightly toed treadling. The movement is powerful and dynamic launched by the hindquarters and transmitted over the back with the long-reaching forehand. The courses are generally harmonious, flowing and very efficient. In step and trotting he moves at all times sublime, showing a very good presentation and very good structural strength. The dog has a lot of charisma and a very good building harmony. Pigmentation and building harmony showing an improvement to his father and grandfather. Zamp is very much in demand by breeders and was able to meet expectations regarding the offspring with his now second, very impressive progeny group with 55 featured animals. Of these, 1 bitch already rated VA and some animals were placed in the leading group in the GHKL and the lower classes. For a winner, he has met the requirements imposed on him Geno-typically and the further development in his appearance and asked demonstrable proof. Best joint findings. Coming Blutlich about Quantum and Dux, maternal over Esko Danish court is best-established lines. Here I recommend, inter alia, in the pairing pigment full bitches and not those which are on the upper size limit supply. Both bloodlines are dominant for very good anatomical systems. The inbreeding ancestors here in the 5th generation, provide enough space.
Big, strong , very typey , high withers , harmonious topline , very good croup in length and location, very good angulation of the fore and hind legs , balanced chest proportions , correct front .

He has a pointed rear angulation, the hocks should be somewhat firmer. Very good bending of the forehand, balanced chest proportions and a straight front.

The Best Junior in 2005, in 2006 and 2007 already rated VA, emerged in 2008 as the winner, documented still in an impressive way, that an medium-sized dog can also be strong, rich and geprägestark. Its up to the fifth generation of inbreeding free pedigree and the fact that it is free from currently heaped patrilines was repeatedly mentioned. His excellent constitution and vitality, its outstanding presentation and in a special way his new high-quality progeny group with the winner of GHKL females, two other VA ratings, the young dog best youth best and a whole range among the top placed descendants, impressively prove the high breeding value this males. In addition to the anatomical advantages that owns Vegas, it was again, like last year, a far above the average power to be certified at the TSB review. Vegas is the deserved winner of 2009! Outstanding results at the TSB examination (Top 19).

it shows strong gait with plenty of extra space . Safe nature , TSB pronounced
; Loosen . VI . Particularly typey very non-positive and full-bodied stud dog
with excellent building harmony and a lot of charisma.
About Medium-sized, non-positive and full-bodied, strong
appealing male with very good expression. He has high withers, straight firm
back and a very well positioned croup of good length. Correct angulation of
front and rear legs, straight front and balanced chest proportions. Correct
step sequence. He shows far outreaching gait with powerful rear, effective back
transfer and free precedence. The best young dog of the year in 1999 and
breeding winners last year. Again, impresses with his correct anatomical structure, outstanding
presentation and his harmonic movement in each gait. The second progeny group
meets the high expectations from the previous year. Encouragingly, some
descendants, including the highly-placed dogs in the groups from the previous
year, easily were able to meet the increased demands in the working dog
classes. This shows that he passes on his robustness and drive systems.
Furthermore, it should be noted that this year also on the females side an
excellent quality was evident. The winner owes his superior power of heredity
to the fact that only advantages are evident in the offspring, there are no
discernible weaknesses. The advantages,
which he passes on, are: Above-average resilience and drive systems, the
correct building conditions, the passing standard fair size and very good
pigmentation. The winner of last year was after all the clear winner of the
year 2002. I am very confident that he will take a lasting positive influence
on the breed.
Large strong type and
expressive. High withers,
firm back, croup has good
lay and length. Very
harmonious top and lower
line, very good angulations
front and rear, normal
chest, correct front.
Straight stepping, he shows
a ground covering gait with
free front reach and
powerful rear drive. TSB
pronounced; releases.
