And the father:

Cezara promises to become an excellent for show and breeding. She is changing her bite and it looks very good so far.

Cezara is available.

Rarau is a splendid example of what a mioritic shepherd bred for shows should be all about.  He is extremely elegant, has a great posture and he moves like no other. His character is amazing, friendly in general, very gentle with children and without fear.

He is the 2011 club winner (the Alba Iulia dog show 25.09.2011) next to other numerous titles won in the last two years.

Why would I choose to sell such a rewarding dog, especially when for a kennel owner show results are very important? It’s all about the breed and long term thinking. For a while now I’m seeing less and less good males and more with character and anatomical flaws and it’s getting harder for me to find good genetic material outside my line ( sometimes I go in trips of 2-3 days just because I hear about a male somewehere on a mountain or in a city across the country) .

My response for the breed and also for me is to raise in the next years a few excellent males, to have their value confirmed in shows and then let them go. This way I will be able to use their genetic material after 2-3 generations so what’s good for the breed in general is also good for me.  I can’t build enough different blood lines alone so this is my strategy is to enrich the breed and make sure it has a future.

For a clear example of how Rarau looks in a normal day, without any grooming, and how is moves watch the video bellow.

That being said I’m open to offers.

As we promised here a short video with the puppies from Alma and Buzdugan, shot in the same time with the presentation pictures from the previous post. Since then they grew quite a lot. From this litter there are only three females still available, check the previous article to see wich ones.

As you can see from the photos bellow the puppies are very expressive and they grow very quick. Abig part of the litter is already reserved, soon the choices will be made and puppies will be named. In the next few days will post a video with the little mioritics playing in the grass.
