Ines Van Damme, the Ambassador for the archetypal Fila Brasileiro.
Update: Mrs. Van Damme has taken some time off from her duties as the president of Cafib, and is dedicating full-time attention to a new book! We anxiously await for another production from our
Ambassador! Meanwhile, her site has been reorganized and many articles that were published in the
Cafibe Boletin that she edited can now be accessed in full through her website: Los Tres Naranjos,

There are a only handful of individuals that have made consistent and serious contributions of information about the Fila Brasileiro. Amongst these individuals, one woman in particular, Ines Van Damme, stands out as possibly the most thorough and hands-on researcher about the breed, if not the only one. She is a dutch author based in Spain and is currently retired from breeding. Nonetheless, since 1987 when the "FB stepped into her life" she has been continuously investigating, researching, collecting, writing, editing and publishing books and articles.
