December 2011
Unlike what we did in the past years, this year we did not compete to place any
given dog in the yearly rankings. We rather showed different dogs, starting or
finishing their championships and, in the case of the Barbado, showing there are
more colors other than just yellow. Still, the year’s balance is very positive
for our dogs and dogs out of our breeding: 16 new titles in the three breeds,
including several new champions in 4 countries; the #1 Barbado da Terceira in
the Portuguese breeds ranking (Ali-Babá
de Aradik); the #2 dog in Group 6 and #9 in the All-Breed ranking (the
Drever A Striped Star de Aradik); 8 dogs
qualified for Eukanuba Gold Winner 2011®
(3 Barbados da Terceira, 1 Dachshund, 4 Drevers)! And the greatest meeting of
Drevers of any show in the south of Europe ! :)
We haven’t updated our website for quite some time. To finish off the year in
style, we decided to bring it up to date big time. We updated the dogs’ pages
with the results of last months’ shows, created new pages for dogs out of our
breeding that started competing, added information about the
kennel and litters (Dachshund
and Barbado da Terceira), rewrote
the Barbado da Terceira texts, making them
more informative and trying to answer some of the most frequently asked
questions and added photos to the photo gallery. We have also been investing in different social networks. Please
visit us and follow us there as well!
Also on
the 13th, we said goodbye to Farrusco (Adágio, Ch Port), our first
Barbado da Terceira and one of the dogs who has meant the most for us. :(
On the 13th, we confirmed Multi-Ch Sheila's pregancy with
Castiço de Aradik! :)
The puppies should be born on the 3rd week of January. We are still accepting
some reservations.
On the 2nd our
3rd Standard Wire-haired Dachshund litter was born, out of
Ch Pinhão do Casal da Vinha and
Aoshi de Ghabar. :) You can learn more
about it in the litter's page. We still have males available.

please consult the
litter’s page.
2010 ended with
our Becas de Aradik becoming BOB'10 -
Best of Breed in 2010. It was the first time this title was awarded to the
Barbado da Terceira. And for the 3rd year in a row, the top ranking
Barbado da Terceira has been co-campaigned or owned by us. And it has been a
single continuous family line, based on Emanuel Vieira’s amazing male Pastor. In
2008, that honor belonged to his daughter
Duquesa-B, Ch Port, PW08, LW08, MW08
(owned by Dédalo Henrique), a dog which decisively set a turning point on how
the breed was viewed in the Portuguese dog scene (she was also an unprecedented
#3 in the Portuguese breeds ranking). In 2009, it was her son,
Figo, JLW08, PW09, Ch Port, Gib, Es (pend.
conf.) and in 2010 the highest ranking Barbado (even if she missed a few
shows) is his daughter Becas de Aradik,
LPW09, BOB'10, from our own breeding!
