We have now the first homebred champion. Zeta (CS Avrei Zampe d'Orsa) won her last CAC in Helsinki Winner Show and became FI CH and Helsinki Winner -14 at the same time. During the year Zeta is professionally handled by our friend Jenni Heikkinen. Thank you Jenni!

Thank you Kuvauksellista Photography for all your lovely photos!
We have nice year 2014 behind us and hopefully even better 2015 in front of us. We are planning our third litter, see more at Puppies-page.
29.1.2014
We received the results of the new storage disease gene which was discovered by Helsinki and Bern universities. The results are:
And because Fi&EE CH Nunki (the father of our A-litter) and Cico (the father of our B-litter) are also normal, all lagottos bred by us are also normal by parentage:
Come Se Balla Coi Lupi (tested)
Come Se Brilla Al Sole
Cpme Se Bella Birbante (tested)
Come Se Biancheggia Il Mar
Come Se Borbotta Il Caffè (tested)
Come Se Brezza Serale
Now we have MyDogDNA health passes for all of our lagottos and also for the latest litter (B-litter).

Etrusca is mated, we will hopefully have puppies in October. More info in puppy page!
Zeta was in mental description in August at the age of 18 months, see video here. We are extremely happy especially of her playfullness and reactions to gunshots. She was the 4th lagotto in Finland who had the result 1 (scale 1-5) from gunshots in MH.
In April we got an important addition to our family when Nube (Mighty Monegat's Ferdinando Fern) arrived from Switzerland. He is an outcross from the important bloodlines but he also has two great working males (Iork, Buk) as his grandfathers. We are happy to co-operate with his wonderful breeder Anna Monegat from kennel Mighty Monegat's. Now Nube is preliminary X-rayed with great results. Now we practise obedience and truffle searching with him and plan some shows for the future.
During this summer we participated to dog school with Zeta and Nube, went to some shows and we also gathered together in Tammela for kennel meeting. It was a lovely summer with all friends and now we prepare for puppy time.

We got very nice official health results for Pucci, Rossi, Cico and Sera. You can find all results and x-rays from Dogs-page.

A week ago Cico (Lucarelli) found and dug up a truffle genus mushroom on a morning-walk in a forest. We are very happy because this is lagottos' main work.
Morchella (Lucarelli) has found the same species of mushrooms earlier this summer. Well done youngsters!!!

Year 2011 was great in many ways. During last year we got three new Italian youngsters to our team; Molly (Zeb-Susy) and brothers Pucci and Rossi (Nano-Indi). You can find more information about them here. Thanks to their breeders Francesco and Daniele for selling these puppies to Finland! And thanks to Tanja, Jenni, Henni and Olli for taking good care of these little lagottos!
In September 2011 Etrusca "Cara" got her first CAC from Keuruu speciality show and also in September FI CH BH OB1 OB2 Mandaraban Abracadabra "Sera" got 175 points from Finnish mental test. Sera also passed the basic rescue dog tests in September. To became an official rescue dog she has to pass two final tests.
Hopefully this year is as good as the previous one. Right now we are expecting first Come Se-litter. We are also waiting for new team member. Hopefully everything goes like planned!
Happy New Year 2012 to all our friends! See you in all kind of dog events!

f. Mandaraban Regina Serena B/B
m. Mandaraban Re Capitano Totti B/B
