 Sworddale_Silver-Prince. |
This
breed was first introduced in Italy by Duca degli Abruzzi. Amongst the dogs imported from the North Pole, we find Houdin, a completely white male, very typical, with a good size and a fine coat, then exported to Great Britain. In Italy there were only a few examples of the breed and they were very heterogeneous, so for this reason breeders had to |
|
|
import
from abroad, for example from France where there existed an important
breeding base. These dogs were detained in Valle D’Aosta and Piemonte to ensure they were in good health. Another man who has contributed towards increasing this breed was the Marquis Alfonso Sanges D’Abadie who bred from French Samoyeds in Capri. |
 Novaskaya-Georgia-prince-of. |
In
1950 we find the first dogs in Naples and, in the same period, in
Florence. The Countess Caterina Passarin d’Antreves possessed a great international champion, Kristar of Kobe, imported from England. The first of the breed, called “dell’Aurora Borealis”, by Mrs. Lupi from Rome, was born in 1960. |
 Silver-Tanzara-of-Sworddale. |
In
1971 another breeding called “di casa Presenzano” rose
in Naples; Mrs Isabella del Balzo di Presenzano imported some completely
white dogs from Great Britain. In Milan we find the “di Castelverde” by Mr. Fantoni Mario with American dogs. In the ‘70s, with a great dog-loving insight, Mr. Sergio Eccheli of “Clan’s” imported from England some great champions, then milestones of Italian breeding: three males, Sworddale Silver Prince (PHOTO), Del Monte Aisle Altar Hymn of Fairvilla (PHOTO), Novaskaya Giorgia Prince of Astutus (PHOTO) |
| and
the female Silver Tanzara of Sworddale, who became famous in the exhibition
circuit. This last, coupled with the champions mentioned, gave birth to a series of champions: Clan’s Sergjey, Clan’s Silversky, Clan’s Noboralfio, Clan’s Elis, Clan’s Noborastro. In the same period, Antonio and Palma l’Astorina, back from USA, took with them a female, Nort Starr Dushka, and opened up a breeding called “Battimonda”. |
