The First Litter

 

 

When Wyzzy was about three I started looking for a suitable husband for her and fortunately for me, Amanda McLaren and Karen Costelloe had imported just the dog, in the form of Ch Opium van de Hoge Laer at Corsini.  ‘Carlos’ was a leggy elegant dog with the most beautiful head, who really complimented Wyzzy’s virtues.  In May 1994 Wyzzy had nine puppies in this the ‘Red Wine’ litter and although many were not shown, of those that were my own Bergeau Zinfandel JW won 1CC and 7RCC and was Commended Elite, Bergeau Cabernet France, though very rarely shown, won BIS at the BSDA Championship Show in 1996, Bergeau Merlot of Chatmar and Bergeau Tintas both won RCCs.  Both Bergeau Zinfandel and Bergeau Tintas won BIS and RBIS more than once at BSDA of GB Open Shows and NBSDC Open Shows.  Another of this litter was sent to the USA as an adult and became AKC Ch Bergeau Pinot Grigio, and sired several Champions and Agility dogs for the Montage and Epris kennels over there.

On the strength of these successes I decided to repeat the mating and of the second ‘Repeat’ litter two were exported to the USA, and became AKC Ch Bergeau Reinvoke and AKC & Can Ch Bergeau Arlequin Replica.  Again, both of these dogs have been bred from to produce several further American and Canadian Champions at the Blackfyre, Darboshea and Landmark/Montage kennels, who also excel in their working ability.
