ABOUT   US

 

        The love for dogs has definately been transmitted to me by my family , who have  never stood in the way of my passion for all animals ...in fact...from the dogs to the cats to the horses , and , to top it all , the cow ...it’s one crazy family !

 

        It all started  back in the distant 1986 when we were struck by the beauty and elegance of the Siberian Husky , a love for us all, and so it was that our first dog arrived , a bitch Kala Du Loup Polaire , and it all began .....

 

        In 1989 the affix  DEL WHYMPER DELLE G. JORASSES  was recognized by the FCI , years of toil and fatigue , trying to understand the secrets of the then great breeders , listening to their discussions  and documenting ourselves  about various blood lines , genetic sickness and the different breeding that the “ GURU “ of the cinofilia  talked about.

It was all to learn !!!!

      

        In 1988 my first malamute arrived , Multi CH. MY SWEET WOLFCHORUS SYMPHONIE , known as PUPPY .

 

        I owe so much to that splendid  friend of mine . It was thanks to her that the Grandes Jorasses Kennels got known, she was one of the most titled of those times.

      

        Then the others took off , from the siberian huskies

 Multi CH .ICE AND FIRE OF BAKER LAKE , Multi CH. MISSMAGO’ DEL WHYMPER DELLE G.JORASSES , the brothers Multi CH. OBIONEKENOBY & ONEWAYOUT  DEL WHYMPER DELLE G.JORASSES to Multi CH . SNOWMIST’S I AM CANADIAN  and his son REGGAENIGHTS DEL WHYMPER DELLE G.JORASSES  Danish Champion ....

 

        As for the malamutes ,....

from Multi CH STORMY MONDAY’S MASTER BLASTER JAMMING ,

CH COLD VALLEY’S VINTAGE 97  to Multi CH GHOSTINTHEMACHINE DEL WHYMPER DELLE G.JORASSES  and his brother

Multi CH GIVE A LITTLE BIT  , who lives in Czech Republic  and many more.....

 

        Those have been my “nordic years of life” , years that I still live with along

         

 

with the dogs but with definately less dedication , above all the huskies from whom I have decide to take a “ time out”  for a while .

 

 

        How my first Aussie  arrived , I’m not sure exactly , but they are definately my greatest cinofilial love .

I think it was in 1996 when I saw the first Australian Shepherd imported from USA  to Italy, love at first sight, and I discovered  myself shepherdess in heart  and soul ( though the nordic blood still runs in my vein ).

.

      In 1999 my first aussie  arrived , CH BAYSHORE’S OBAN  imported from USA , and shortly after in 2000 another Bayshore arrived ...CH BAYSHORE’S AMERICAN PIE  and always from USA , thanks to the interest of my friend Richard , Multi CH PROPWASH NORTHERN DANCER -“ Andy”-  ( known  fondly as Ciccio or Barone ) arrived , a very special dog to whom  everything is permitted  due to becoming European Champion in 2003!!

       

      So began from 2000  a long list of amazing aussies, impossible to name all, but you can find them reading and browsing  this site .

 

 They are so many , and I’m very proud of them  all !!!

 

        One of the latest to arrive is “SUPER LILLO” as we call him at home ,

Multi CH SUNNYRAIN’S WHITELIGHTER  World Champion 2006 and European Champion 2007...

...in just 2 years  more than 14 champions titles and several Best In Show!!

 

  

     And so here we are .It’s difficult to account for 20 years  of cinofilia in a few lines and its sad not to be able   to mention  all the faithful friends that have accompanied us in this journey ...but we can introduce you to those who are traveling  by our  side  at this moment!

 

            I thank all the four legged friends  who have made the history of “ Grandes Jorasses”  and those who continue to make it ... and their  owners  who dedicate themselves  to them with great passion , our friends and all the judges that appreciate our dogs during  these show   years .

 

        And now , with the house invaded by aussie ( with the excuse that they are all well behaved and all get on together !) , I bid my farewell and hope you have fun visiting our site .

 

Until soon ,

 

Gabriella and the whole family of Grandes Jorasses
