HALL OF FAME

The dogs you see below have played an important role in my life either in the show ring, as a stud dog or in the whelping box. They have all been very special in their own right.


	MULTI BISS BIS AUST GRAND CH BERIZZA HUGO BOSS DOB: 16.11.1998 BISS Ch Berizza Despite ThWhite x Ch Berizza Groovy Kinda Luv Without a doubt Hugo is the biggest and most versatile winner Australia has seen for some time. He has been a tremendous ambassador for this reasonably rare breed and proven that IG's CAN and WILL win at all levels of competitions when they have what it takes! He didn't do it just once but several times and the show world took notice. Apart from being a great performer he is also a great producer, with several Champions already to his name and more to come in the future, since he isn't retired from breeding yet. The old cliché "like a fine wine" couldn't be further from the truth in his case.
	CH BERIZZA FEW ARE CHOSEN DOB: 15.11.2002 Gr Ch Berizza Hugo Boss x Gr Ch Berizza Phantom Kisses Chase is a 3rd repeat of the above combination and an absolute dream dog to show. His attitude is second to none & he loves every moment of it. A typical Hugo son! Starting with two BABY IN GROUPS, he was sidelined due to a serious injury at 4.5 mths of age. However, he bounced back and went on from there, taking his time to mature and recover. He has been a prominent figure in the winners circles and apart from several Sweeps placings, he has excelled at Specialties. Chase gained his title at 13 mths of age and best of all he has already sired TWO All Breed BIS winners, one of them being the youngest Grand Champion in the breed!!
	AUST CH KAFIRIS TOUCH O BLU 31.05.1989 - 03.04.2003 My first Italian, the real human type!!.Bubbles gained her title by 13 mths of age and was hardly shown since. She is behind some of our "coloured " offspring but was never extensively used for breeding.
	DUAL BISS AUST CH WONDOAN WRAVISHING 02.01.1990 - September 2007 Making breed history by taking consecutive Specialty BIS in 1993 under Mr R Mattheuwsen (Netherlands) and in 1994 under Mrs E Doyle (NZ) and amassing over 1000 points in her illustrious career. She was Runner/Up Best In Show All breeds twice and is now looking over us from Rainbow Bridge after a long and happy life. She left us at 17 yrs and 8 mths of age.
