After months of waiting and planning this handsome young dog traveled from the Pyrenees Region of France to Canada in October 2012.
Gabizos was a very exciting addition to the Chaparral Bergers des Pyrénées pack and has been siring many extraordinary litters since his arrival!

With his outstanding conformation qualities, sound movement, beautiful expression, excellent character and strong constitution he has been making a positive contribution
to our breeding program in Canada as well as in the U.S.A.   As a stud dog he offers medium size, good length of body, excellent coat texture, overall moderate
 coat length, excellent pigment, excellent movement, excellent expression, almond eye shape,  good natural ears,
solid well-attached double dewclaws, high prey and play drive and stable indefatigable character.
  In Canada and the United States he has consistantly placed in the Herding Group ring with top honours under Canadian, U.S. and FCI judges.

GABIZOS first traveled to the U.S.A. in February 2014 and attended the Westminster Dog Show where he earned his first points towards his American Championship as
 "Best of Winners" placing.    His second venture to the U.S. again earned him consecutive "Best of Winners" to complete his title as AKC Champion. 
He then went on to win "BEST OF BREED" & "GROUP 3RD" at the well-attended 2014 U.S. Regional Specialty Show that same weekend.

In 2015 we attended the infamous Morris and Essex Dog Show in New Jersey which is only held every five years. 
With a record entry of Pyrenean Shepherds Gabizos earned top honours with a BEST of BREED win.

In 2015, at the largest dog show in the U.S.A.,  the AKC Eukanuba Dog Show, Gabizos again received top honours placing Best of Opposite Sex.

Ring of Honor - 5th place "EXCELLENT" at French Nationals 2004, Argeles-Gazost, France

  Teddy was bred by Andres and Agnes Audibert at L'Oustaou de Padel kennel in France and we remain grateful for such an outstanding dog.

Teddy is brindle in colour, 43.5 cm (17") and very light on his feet and agile. 
He is a 'lover', he loves everyone and thinks everyone should love him as well! 
He is a loyal and obedient companion and is my shadow everywhere I go. 
His favorite place is in anyone's lap (under your skin if he could!). 
He is extremely biddable, is trained for the obedience ring but has been our star in the conformation ring for years
with numberous group placements.  His conformation is excellent and he is a very typey dog.

He is extremely sound with excellent movement all-round. Combining this with his very outgoing personality he easily
obtained his Canadian Championship with style and grace. Sensible & lively with lots of drive, working with Pierre is a
pleasure either in the conformation ring or the herding arena. He takes his job as herder and guardian seriously and with lots of zest!
Pierre has also placed "High in Trial" and "Reserve High in Trial" at many herding competitions.
Pierre has the personality and the build to do anything I put his mind to!

which ingratiated him to all who met him.
Very obedient and well-mannered, his passing is dearly felt.  A terrific companion & competitor.
