Zorro, Ayarah and Laser

 

 

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.
