Breeder’s Record (Palmarés)

A breeder’s record of achievements reflects their commitment, ethics, and dedication to the breed. A responsible breeder prioritizes the health and well-being of their dogs while also striving for official recognition at dog shows.

These achievements are essential to demonstrate the genetic, morphological, and functional quality of the dogs they breed.

Each accomplishment helps raise the breed standard and provides future owners with confidence in acquiring a healthy, balanced, and loyal companion.
