Hello, my name is Carol Beasley, and I am the proud owner of Ikon Rottweilers. I live in Walnut Creek, a small city in the rolling hills of Northern California. Dogs and dog sports are my passion.

 

I have always had a great interest in dog training and would go to the local high school to watch the obedience training classes that were held there. This was the first place that I met the Rottweiler. I had no idea what kind of dog this was, but I knew someday I would own one of these large, powerful dogs. At that time I owned a horse. I asked my parents if I sold the horse could I use the money to buy a dog. Of course they jumped at the chance to stop paying boarding bills and driving me back and forth to the stables. So, in 1980, I bought my first Rottweiler. This puppy became know as Krieer Prinz Bruno, CD.

I purchased Bruno as a "show potential" puppy, but soon realized he was not a "show dog". So we concentrated on obedience and Jr. showmanship. I learned so much from Bruno. He will always have a special place in my heart.
 

Thru the years, I have learned so much about dogs, Rottweilers and dog training from the priceless guidance of so many knowledgeable people. Judy Howard, from Arydith Obedience School, welcomed me in her classes at 14 years old. She helped guide me to high scoring working dog status with Bruno. She would always poke fun at me by saying: "here comes little Carol and her big boy Bruno." I think some of the judges were quite surprised how obedient Bruno was with such a young handler.
Nancy Geyes, from Power Paws Agility, helped me train 2 of my dogs to top 10 rankings in agility.
Words cannot describe how much I have learned from Daviann Mitchell of Nighthawk Rottweilers. She has taught me so much about correct Rottweiler conformation and is always there to answer questions about showing and breeding.
On the Schutzhund field, it is Terry Macias and David Delisseuges who are always there to support and guide me along the way. All of these people have helped me make Ikon Rottweilers what it is today. I cannot thank them enough.

I am actively involved with my dogs and the following clubs in support of dogs and dog activities: United States Rottweiler Club, Associated Rottweiler Fanciers of Northern California (past president and board of director), Western Rottweiler Owners, United States Schutzhund Clubs of America, American Rottweiler Verein, San Jose German Shepherd Dog Club (board of directors).
