Corsini
Incognito at Bergeau aged 2 years |
I cannot
write this profile without mention of my wonderful ‘Zorro’ (Corsini Incognito
at Bergeau). I did not mean to buy him
at all, but absolutely fell in love with him at 7 weeks old when visiting
Mandy McLaren. He had a traumatic
time, since he broke his neck at 14 weeks of age and was wrapped up in a
fibreglass cast until he was nearly 6 months old. Nevertheless, he went on to be Top male and
Top Tervueren puppy, and joint top BSD puppy of 1996, also winning BPIS at
the BSDA Championship Show in 1996. Although
very lightly shown, he has also won 2RCC.
He was a very interesting dog, since when he was about 7 years old we realised
that he reacted to all sorts of food colourings and additives which affected
his behaviour very dramatically.
Sadly, this rather blighted his showing years, as he was very
difficult to manage. However, in his
later years he was much more peaceful and an extraordinarily affectionate
dog, but because of these problems was never bred from. He lived a long and bouncy life and in the
end died quite suddenly. |

In the mid 1990s, I briefly went into partnership with Cath Bond of the Chatmar kennel, and we imported together two dogs under the joint Chatauberge affix. |

Hexen House Ayarah for
Chatauberge |
The first was Hexen House Ayarah for
Chatauberge (Ch Cartoon du Perigord
Vert x Ch Jarah de la Prairie de la Sommerau) who won 1CC and 1RCC before
having just two puppies by the wonderful Ch Lance van de Hoge Laer at
Corsini, one of whom returned to Sweden to the Hexen House kennel and then
two very successful litters for the Chatmar kennel.The second was Laser de la
Cabanne du Berger for Chatauberge (World
Ch Sherpa van de Hoge Laer x Ch Djenna de la Cabanne du Berger) who was
the sire a litter for the Chatmar kennel and the Halennia kennel, including
Ch Halennia Arpeggio. Laser was also to Bergeau Zinfandel JW to produce the
Bergeau Light litter. |
