The Sengpiel line of Small Munsterlanders began when they imported two German Small
Munsterlanders with the help of a long-time friend, General Andrew O'Meara. General
O'Meara had spent considerable time in Germany and put the Sengpiels in touch with Dale
Richardson, a breeder of Drahthaars in Germany. He found the best SMP male, Fero vom
Lohebeeke, who scored a VGP I, 320 points. And the best Small Munsterlander female,
Catja vom Brunnenweg, who scored a VGP I, 305 points, he could find for Ned. Both dogs
arrived in Kewaskum, Wisconsin in 1986.

Fero was a very regal dog. Fero's height was at the top of the height standard, well boned, and muscled with a strong chest. He was an
outstanding marker of shot birds with a great nose, tracking, pointing and search. He was well rounded. He had a good disposition and
was a handsome male with a white body, brown plates and plumed tail.

Catja was very consistent, had outstanding abilities and she had a gentle and loving disposition. She was Ned's favorite because of
her steady performance that never wavered. Together they complemented each other.

In March 1987 a German breeder, Gregor Schmidt, contacted the Sengpiels offering him an
outstanding young puppy, Jeiko vom Jakobsbrunnen "Fritz". Ned and June's foundation breed
stock was now established. "Fritz" was the first Small Munsterlander Pointer to earn a Prize I in
the NAVHDA Utility Test and ran in the Invitational at ten years of age. Six Small Munsterlanders
have run in the Invitational Tests. They included Fritz and four of his offspring: Aryan v.
O'Meara/Sengpiel (Aryan), Brendan Boy v. O'Meara/Sengpiel (Buddy Boy), Bridgetanne v.
O'Meara/Sengpiel (Jaegerin), and Andreas v. O'Meara/Sengpiel (Hans). Hans went on to
become the first Small Munsterlander Pointer to pass the Invitational Test to become a
Versatile Champion. The Small Munsterlander Club of North America, Inc. named Fritz their first
SMCNA Dog of the Decade.

The breedings of Fero and
Catja produced Anna v.
Sengpiel who was bred to a
Danish import, Koko Hans
Chivas, to produce Alexis of
Green Acres. The mating of
Alexis of Green Acres to
Fritz produced Ajac v.
Ammerel "Barney".
