Von Forell Xylon BH is a dog that is easy to be around.

That might sound like a simple thing to say about a high-drive working dog, but it is actually the most important thing you can say. He is self-assured in the truest sense – not reactive, not sharp, not on edge. He processes the world around him clearly and without conflict. That quality, mental stability, is what everything else is built on.

His drives are intense. High prey drive that is focused, committed, and clear. There is no leaking, no anxiety underneath the surface. He simply is what he is – in training, in competition, and in daily life.

Xylon has achieved his BH and was awarded Judge’s Choice across the entire trial day, recognised amongst all dogs and competitors entered. For us, that recognition reflected more than performance alone. It reflected the clarity, composure, and overall quality he consistently brings to his work.

He is Von Forell bred. That matters not because of the name but because of what the name represents – decades of selecting for exactly this type of dog. Clear. Safe. Stable. A dog that a competent handler can do great work with and a family can trust completely.
