5th of April

Our breeding trip to Italy 

Argenta’s Zaffron came into heat and the time was good to do the breeding we have been thinking about for such a long time.
We drove down to Turin in Italy for the meeting between “Zina” and her fiance
Ch Capitano Mio Capitano d’Utrillo.It was a long trip over 5000 km but it was worth every km.
We brought our Clura with us so that Zina had some one to talk to during the long trip.

Cuneo
Boel, Zina and Clura in the city Cuneo

Saluzo
Saluzzo is the small town close to were Capitano and his family are living.

It is close to the alps between Italy and France


It is also close to the Mediterranean so we took a trip down to the sun.


The water was fun

Capitano
Here is the reason for our trip to meet spring and love.
Italian Ch Capitano Mio Capitano d’Utrillo now over 9 years old.
Capitano carries all the old famouse European bloodlines and it is very nice that we hopefully will have them back into our pedigrees again.

So when Zina and Cpitano had done what we wanted them to do.
We went back north and home again. To do so we had to drive thru and over the alps via the San Bernadino pass.

We now cross our fingers for a great litter out of Capitano and Zaffron.
Puppies are due to the beginning of June, keep looking at the puppy info.
