Our ambassador to Montenegro Chivas Ayaba has won another Best In Show in his young age at the Montenegro cup: CACIB Cetinje and CAC Lovcen. In September he won 6. Group on the CACIB show in Podgorica. (19. 09. 2009), judged by Esten Enge (NOR).

He was also placed nicely as inner choise in intermediate class at World dog show in Bratislava. On the further Slovakian shows he also achieved grate results:

• SKCHR Club Show – Bratislava, Incheba (judge: Franz Zimmermann/A), excellent, 4th place

• RR World Speciality Show – Bratislava, Incheba (judge: Timoty Finney/IRL), excellent,  2nd place

In his spare time Chivas Ayaba is into humanitarian work – Street Cat Rescue Program and dedicated to pet population control through no-kill methods. Maybe he also joined the group of celebrities like Madonna & Brangelina by adopting a kitten from a 3rd world country…

The newest bright star of our kennel is Bakira Ayaba who recently became Austrian junior champion, successfully passed a behaviour test (Begleithundeprüfung – 1: 90 points) and caught her first wild boar. She also winning BOS award Best female at the Austrian Rhodesian Ridgeback club show. She was also placed nicely in the last six females in intermediate class at World dog show in Bratislava.

Born to track

‘Bakira Ayaba ist nicht nur österreichischer Jugendchampion sondern auch ein super, super Familienhund. Aber bei Bakira gingen auch in keinster Weise die so geschätzten Grundeigenschaften dieser Rasse verloren. Sie ist bei jeder Art von Fährtenarbeit mit viel Freude, großem Finderwillen und innerlicher Ruhe – die ich bei diesem Hund sehr schätze – bei der Sache und meisterte auch die erste Nachsuche auf ein Wildschwein mit Bravour’, sagt unsere Helmut.
