I grew up in a family of Italian origin surrounded by wonderful parents and two sisters who know the true meaning of the word - FAMILY!

  In our childhood, my younger sister and I had a great passion for animals which led us to practice equestrian sports for many years.  I had to distance myself from the horses when I was a teenager to continue my schooling.  I also fractured some of my vertebrae in an automobile accident.  Since that time I have turned more to dogs and started my breeding of Chow Chows.

   I have always had my feet on the ground but my dream was to have 15 beautiful Chow Chows in my garden.  Today I live with my husband Antonio and our beautiful son Lorenzo. We have 10 beautiful Chow Chows in our home.

  I have learned a lot about Chow Chows.  I have met many people - breeders, industry professionals and many new friends!   I have experienced some disappointments as well.

  On my journey I met Vancie Drew of Mei-Ling Chows from whom I acquired my  first cream chow - Brazilian/Pan-American Ch. Mei Lings Winter Storm known as "Tommy".  Vancie has become my mentor.   It was from Vancie that I learned a lot about breeding, bloodlines, colors, trimming, grooming and artificial insemination.   Thank you so very much Vancie!

After 10 years working with this breed I still learn more each day.  Chow Chows are fascinating dogs -  beautiful, faithful and loyal.

  Today I am a student of Veterinary Medicine.   I hope to contribute to the genetic improvement of the Chow Chow breed in Brazil.  I love beauty but the quest for improvement of health makes me even more fascinated by Chow Chows.

  I hope your visit to my site will display the love I have for Chow Chows.

  Welcome! Enjoy my site!
