Sire: MBISS Am Can Ch Mariza Brother Karamazov "Mitzka"  (BOS All-Breed 2002, multiple Group winner, multiple group placer, 2004 PSBC BISS, 2002 PSBC BISS, 2002 BCOC BISS, 2001 BCOC BOS, 2000 BCOA AOM)

Dam:  Brusnichka Nevskaia "Bruska"(Russian Import)

When we were planning this breeding, we wanted to blend the generations of Russian-bred field-titled Borzoi with the unmistakable ring elegance possessed by Mitzka.  We were hoping to get such fine details as good pigment, small high-set ears, and tight feet.  Both parents had great tail carriage, too. After doing some extensive pedigree research, we found that some important producers appear more than once on both the Russian and the American sides of the puppies' pedigree way far back.  These producers are: Eng Fin Ch Keeper's Michaelangelo, Int Ch Polongai Porchai Krasnoje Selo (Holland), Gotz v Silberhof (Germany), as well the littermates Xantoff Wergei and Xakor Wergei (Germany). We feel that the two puppies resulting from this breeding inherited all the best qualities from their parents and this outcross worked well for us. The two resulting puppies with this colorful pedegree have confident personalities, and are full of energy!  Please meet them:

 

Am Can Ch Zabava Winter Palace, C.G.C. "Roosik"

Roosik stayed at Zabava.  His accomplishments included Best Senior Dog in Futurity at the 2000 National Specialty (pictured with judge K.C. Artley), a Group win from the classes (judge Mary Ellen Compagnon), and 1st in Open at the 2001 Borzoi Club of Northern California fall specialty (judge Jon Cole).  Roosik was a multiple BOB winner in very limited showing.  Roosik was also obedience-trained through CDX.  At the 2004 Centennial National Specialty Show, Roosik was awarded an Award of Merit (180 champions entered, 600 total entries)!!!  Roosik produced two beautiful litters.(See B Litter and S Litter).  He had what Russian breeders of the old times called brilliance, or what we call now pizzaz, and he passed it to every single one of his children.  Roosik passed away at nearly 12 years of age, for a 35" giant male, a very respectable age.  Frozen semen available to approved bitches.

SBOS Am Can Ch Zabava Winter Berry, J.C. ROMX-C "Two-Tochka"

Tutta's accomplishments included 1st in her Futurity Class at the 2000 National specialty, 2nd in Open at the Borzoi Club of Northern California (the day after the National), and a superb litter whelped in July of 2002 (See M Litter), for which she earned the Pedigree #1 Producer Award in 2004 and gained her ROM-C title.  Tutta had about 40 ASFA points, too.  From her first litter of seven, born on 07/11/2002, all finished in the United States, four are Canadian champions, and one finished in Japan (see M Litter).  Her second litter was also beautiful, it was whelped in April 2006 (see T Litter), so far, three have finished their AKC titles, bringing their dam her ROMX-C title, and two more are in the rings.  Tutta was SBOS from the 10+ Veteran Bitch Class.  Tutta left us at 12.5 years of age, and our place will never be the same without her.
