Story
As a puppy Viva was imported to Belgum from Spain. However, her owner discontinued with dog breeding and we bought her and
brought her with us to Norway.
Viva have had great success in dog shows, which you can se by her titles. Her best result, which would be difficult to top,
is her BOB and World Winner Title from the World Dog Show in Dortmund, Germany in 2003.
Afther Viva's arrival in Norwat she was shown at the Norwegian Kennel Club's International Dog Show in Oslo. Judged by
Frank Christiansen she became BOB, of four participants, and she also received her Norwegian Championship, and an excellent
written critique.
Viva has also left her paw-prints in the breeding. She is the mother of Boreas El Perro Diablo, which is used as a stud dog
by a breeder here in Norway. In her second, and so far last litter, she gave Castro El Perro Diablo, which is a very
promising dog. He got his first CAC just 9 months of age, and the first time he was shown, from the Judge Frank Chrsitiansen.
Viva was mated just a couple a months ago, but she did not take. We will try again, but in the meantime she will enter the
show-ring again, and this time also in Sweden and Denmark, trying to become a Champion in these two countries also.
