83rd National Cafib Exposition - March 14, 2010


Extreme heat and sudden
thunderstorms didn't hold back an event that brought together dedicated Fila Brasileiro owners, enthusiasts, judges and most importantly, a large number of homogeneous dogs who represented the "Paulo Santos Cruz" Standard in full effect.

The event was well put together and counted with the presence of international breeders. Some of whom even brought dogs from Latin America, as well as those who traveled considerable distances from all parts of Brazil. There were many judges from the official Cafib roster. The event also brought the "father of Cafib", Chico Peltier, who flew in from Rio de Janeiro to participate in the show which can be considered one of the best of recent times.

Tracking Wild Boar in the Czech Republic

In the very begining of the year, we received an email from one of our readers which said:

"I receive some very nice pictures. You can see young male called Demon tracking shoted porky. True working dogs are not very often in Czech republic. So I am very happy that I can send you this pictures.
Demon is son of Xingu2 do Itanhandu (Vulcao2 do Ibituruna x Holy do Alto Quatis) and famous czech female Angelika Salve Floresta (Dragon de Los Tres Naranjos x Henna de Los Tres Naranjos).
My best regards
Jerry *"
Demon, sitting next to his prize boar, a natural born young hunting & tracking dog dog from the Ze Skalniho Kaje Kennel [Rock Landscape], made his owners proud by successfully tracking down his second wild boar on the forth day of the New Year. Similar to the Dogo Argentino, the Fila Brasileiro also has the appropriate body structure for boar hunting.
