Q. & A. with Ewa

  • Why did you start breeding?

    When doing research we found Presa Canarios to be the perfect breed for us. We wanted a good dog and we found him - Kingo "King Size de Presa Awangarda" - little did we know then that he would be one of the most famous dogs in the world. He and our first female Pari "Parisienne de Presa Awangarda" gave us the sparkle of thought to establish our own breeding program.
  • What makes your program special?

    Our dogs are bred with the original purpose of the breed working with cattle as well as protection dogs and family companions. The goal is to have an ultimate, functional dog with stable nerves and a balanced temperament. We want our dogs to be capable to go both on a show ring and on the working field.
  • What are the different breed coat colors in your program?

    Our puppies include black, fawn, and tiger. Colors will vary depending on the parent dogs.
  • Where do your breeding dogs live?

    They live in my home and a kennel on my property.
