I
started breeding in the year 1962 and I came
to have in the year 1965 more than sixty mastiffs.
Then, due to professional reasons I had to
reduce this number, but always keeping a selected
group of mastiffs. In the year 1985 I was
able to make my dream come true, which is
improving the breed to the maximum.
In the year 1991, Reina del Espinillo, female
dog of my property, was Champion of Spain,
of Europe and of the World. In the year 2000,
Tonio de Montes del Pardo was World's Champion
in champion's class in the World's show of
Oporto, Champion of Spain and Champion of
the A.E.P.M.E association. It has won the
International Shows of Madrid, Badajoz, Valladolid,
Torrelavega, Monográfica de Rioja,
Santander, Razas Españolas Salamanca
2000 among others. Its main descendants Drake,
Nalón and Sony have won many prizes
in National and International dog shows. Drake
de Montes del Pardo won the first prize of
Tipicidad in the Monográfica Nacional
of October 2000, which means, the most typical
Spanish Mastiff of Spain. Since the year 2000
Montes del Pardo has evolved a lot in quality
and quantity. Its Mastiffs have been the most
awarded both in National and International
dog shows receiving the general acknowledge
of many judges and amateurs.
Our main purpose is to continue improving
the breed, and for this we count nowadays
with more than sixty breeding mastiffs, that
gather not only the genetic line of Reina,
Tonio, Drake, etc. but a selection of the
best mastiffs of Spain, since we try to use
the stud services of the best dogs in the
market. Therefore, we have dogs from Oliveros,
Pizarro, Sultán, Ron, Sambo and Cruel
and we will be up-to-date about using other
coming awarded mastiffs.
Yours
faithfully,
