We are currently feeding our adult Rottweilers Inukshuk 30/25:
Analytical compounds
Raw protein 30.00%; raw fats and oils 25.00%; raw fiber 3.50%; raw ashes 5.30%; Calcium 1.50%; Phosphorus 1.10%.
To protect the breed standard; all of our puppies go to their forever homes with Limited AKC Registration.
This limited registration can be “revoked” at any time by the breeder of record.
We are more than happy to revoke the limited registration, making it become Full AKC registration once you have met the following:
We must receive and approve written intent of Full AKC Registration within 12 months of age with valid reason behind your request.
Rottweiler cannot be over 25 months old and can never produce / sire a litter within 750 miles of our location.
Pay any breeding right fees to the owner(s) of the Sire and Dam (if applicable).
All health testing has been completed (see Health Testing section below).
You will be responsible for all AKC filing fees
Sorry no exceptions
We raise all our Rottweilers and their off-springs in our home. Therefore we run a closed kennel at all times.
This is to ensure the safety of our family, our pack and the health of your next puppy. This also keeps us within the good graces of our neighbors.
Clients are always welcome within a 24 hour notice so long as we do not have any puppies under the age of 6 weeks and 3 days old.
To become a client you must first fill out a Puppy Application. Next you would have to put down a deposit for the pairing and pick of your choice.
Sorry there are no exceptions, we will not jeopardize the health of any of our Rottweilers for the sale of one puppy.
Thank you for your understanding.
Yes, we follow the working tradition and dock tails.
By entering into any verbal agreement with King Canine and or their agents you agree to the following.
We reserve the right to cancel any verbal contract for any reason at any time before the official written contract has been signed.
If we do invoke this clause, we will issue a refund in full minus any service fees within 30 days of written notice of cancellation to the ORIGINAL funding source.
Written notice may or may not be Electronic Mail (E-Mail). If notice is done through E-Mail the 30 days time limit starts once the former client has confirmed their mailing address.
Any threats of legal action may result in no refund being issued until ordered by the Spokane Superior Court of Spokane County.
Yes it is safe to ship a Rottweiler of any age over 8 weeks old.
The airlines have perfected shipping with their state of the art climate controlled and pressurized cargo area for our animals. Along with their special terminals designed for 24/7 care and the progressive care policies it has never been safer for you to have your Rottweiler shipped.
We ship Rottweiler puppies safely by air using Delta Airlines, Alaska Airlines, and United Airlines within the United States to the following states: Alabama, AL, Alaska, AK, Arizona, AZ, Arkansas, AR, California, CA, Colorado, CO, Connecticut, CT, Delaware, DE, Florida, FL, Georgia, GA, Hawaii, HI, Idaho, ID, Illinois, IL, Indiana, IN, Iowa, IA, Kansas, KS, Kentucky, KY, Louisiana, LA, Maine, ME, Maryland, MD, Massachusetts, MA, Michigan, MI, Minnesota, MN, Mississippi, MS, Missouri, MO, Montana, MT, Nebraska, NE, Nevada, NV, New Hampshire, NH, New Jersey, NJ, New Mexico, NM, New York, NY, North Carolina, NC, North Dakota, ND, Ohio, OH, Oklahoma, OK, Oregon, OR, Pennsylvania, PA, Rhode Island, RI, South Carolina, SC, South Dakota, SD, Tennessee, TN, Texas, TX, Utah, UT, Vermont, VT, Virginia, VA, Washington, WA, West Virginia, WV, Wisconsin, WI, and Wyoming, WY.
Cost of shipping is
Under the age of 12 weeks $500.00 to $750.00
Over the age of 12 weeks $750.00 to $1,000.00
This includes:
Airline Ticket / Ground Transportation
Food for Traveling
Approved Travel Crate
Bedding for Approved Travel Crate
Health Exam and Certificate by licensed Veterinarian
Travel Cost to Veterinarian, Airport and or ground transporter
So, this is a flat fee as we do not charge for our time. The only exception to this price is IF your local airport only accepts Delta Dash due to flight schedules. This normally raised the price about $500.00 / $800.00. It is it always best to have two different airports we can ship to as a just in case.
We follow traditional German naming of our puppies where the first letter of their name is the letter of the litter. This would then be followed by our kennel name (Von Kinghaus).
Names can be up to 36 characters long INCLUDING our Kennel name (Von Kinghaus)
No other names are allowed in the official names. Other names include family name, middle names, and or hyphen names.
Yes, we follow the working tradition and dock tails.
Once you put your $500.00 deposit down we wait for the litter to be born. If they are already born the deposit is still $500.00.
Best practices for you.
If you have questions make a list and give us a call (10 am to 6pm PST) or email us.
Please put all your questions in one email. One line emails over and over are very time-consuming.
Sorry, no visiting the puppies until they are 6 Weeks + 3 Days old and have their shots (As Time Permits).
Please be aware of Puppy Pictures and Updates after the first week is normally every 2 to 3 weeks, as time permits.
Once the puppies are born:

at Locus (DNA marker – ASIP reference: Schmutz S and DL Dreger. A SINE Insertion Causes the Black-and-Tan and Saddle Tan Phenotypes in Domestic Dogs. Journal of Heredity 2011, 102(S1):S11-S18.) This color allele is associated with generating the commonly known phenotypes known as “tan points”, “phantom” and “tri-color” among several breeds. The inheritance and expression can vary depending on the breed.
Associated with the presence of chocolate (also commonly referred to as liver or brown). The bb genotype usually results in a chocolate coat phenotype and liver noses among yellow dogs.
The Canine Health Information Center, also known as CHIC, is a centralized canine health database sponsored by the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals (OFA). CHIC, working with participating parent clubs, provides a resource for breeders and owners of purebred dogs to research and maintain information on the health issues prevalent in specific breeds by establishing a recommended protocol for breed specific health screening and recognizing dogs tested in accordance with that protocol.
Congenital heart diseases in dogs are malformations of the heart or great vessels. The lesions characterizing congenital heart defects are present at birth and may develop more fully during perinatal and growth periods. Many congenital heart defects are thought to be genetically transmitted from parents to offspring; however, the exact modes of inheritance have not been precisely determined for all cardiovascular malformations.
At this time, developmental cardiac diseases like subaortic stenosis and cardiomyopathies are difficult to monitor since there is no clear cut distinction between normal and abnormal. The OFA will modify the congenital cardiac database when a proven diagnostic modality and normal parameters by breed are established. However at this time, the OFA cardiac database should not be considered as a screening tool for these diseases.
Canine Degenerative Myelopathy (DM) is a devastating degenerative disease of the spinal cord that can progress rapidly and cause weakness in the hind limbs and eventually paraplegia among genotypically affected dogs.
The Three Faces of Elbow Dysplasia
Elbow dysplasia is a general term used to identify an inherited polygenic disease in the elbow of dogs. Three specific etiologies make up this disease and they can occur independently or in conjunction with one another. These etiologies include:
1. Pathology involving the medial coronoid of the ulna (FCP)
2. Osteochondritis of the medial humeral condyle in the elbow joint (OCD)
3. Ununited anconeal process (UAP)
Studies have shown the inherited polygenic traits causing these etiologies are independent of one another. Clinical signs involve lameness which may remain subtle for long periods of time. No one can predict at what age lameness will occur in a dog due to a large number of genetic and environmental factors such as degree of severity of changes, rate of weight gain, amount of exercise, etc. Subtle changes in gait may be characterized by excessive inward deviation of the paw which raises the outside of the paw so that it receives less weight and distributes more mechanical weight on the outside (lateral) aspect of the elbow joint away from the lesions located on the inside of the joint. Range of motion in the elbow is also decreased.
Grading Elbows
For elbow evaluations, there are no grades for a radiographically normal elbow. The only grades involved are for abnormal elbows with radiographic changes associated with secondary degenerative joint disease. Like the hip certification, the OFA will not certify a normal elbow until the dog is 2 years of age. The OFA also accepts preliminary elbow radiographs. To date, there are no long term studies for preliminary elbow examinations like there are for hips, however, preliminary screening for elbows along with hips can also provide valuable information to the breeder.
1. Grade I Elbow Dysplasia: Minimal bone change along anconeal process of ulna (less than 2mm).
2. Grade II Elbow Dysplasia: Additional bone proliferation along anconeal process (2-5 mm) and subchondral bone changes (trochlear notch sclerosis).
3. Grade III Elbow Dysplasia: Well developed degenerative joint disease with bone proliferation along anconeal process being greater than than 5 mm.
This allele allows the agouti protein to bind some of the time and cause fawn/red pigment to be made on the body and the melanocyte stimulating hormone to bind on the face instead. Dogs that are black, brown or blue do not show their mask against their similar body color. The mask is inherited as a dominant trait.
The purpose of the OFA Eye Certification Registry (CAER) is to provide breeders with information regarding canine eye diseases so that they may make informed breeding decisions in an effort to produce healthier dogs. CAER certifications will be performed by board certified (ACVO) veterinary ophthalmologists. Regardless of whether owners submit their CAER exam forms to the OFA for “certification,” all CAER exam data is collected for aggregate statistical purposes to provide information on trends in eye disease and breed susceptibility. Clinicians and students of ophthalmology as well as interested breed clubs and individual breeders and owners of specific breeds will find this useful.
Long-haired coat length is inherited as an autosomal recessive trait. Therefore, dogs that are carriers of the long-hair mutation usually appear to be normal (short hair) but will likely pass on the long-hair allele 50% of the time.
The phenotypic evaluation of hips done by the Orthopedic Foundation for Animals falls into seven different categories. Those categories are Normal (Excellent, Good, Fair), Borderline, and Dysplastic (Mild, Moderate, Severe). Once each of the radiologists classifies the hip into one of the 7 phenotypes above, the final hip grade is decided by a consensus of the 3 independent outside evaluations. Examples would be:
1. Two radiologists reported Excellent, one Good—the final grade would be Excellent
2. One radiologist reported Excellent, one Good, one Fair—the final grade would be Good
3. One radiologist reported Fair, two radiologists reported Mild—the final grade would be Mild
The hip grades of Excellent, Good and Fair are within normal limits and are given OFA numbers. This information is accepted by AKC on dogs with permanent identification (tattoo, microchip) and is in the public domain. Radiographs of Borderline, Mild, Moderate and Severely dysplastic hip grades are reviewed by the OFA radiologist and a radiographic report is generated documenting the abnormal radiographic findings.
We feel so strongly about testing for JLPP and want to educated and encourage ALL breeders to test, we have dedicated an entire post on JLPP. This post contains videos so you know what to look for.
Hyperuricosuria, or elevated uric acid level in the urine, is inherited as an autosomal recessive disorder and is characterized by the formation of bladder stones and occasional kidney stones.
