SUNSTAG (Reg.) is proud to say that a few of our first hound families are feeling confident enough to embark on the greatest adventure of their Canine connection. They want to be breeders.
We call them our World Wide Families because they live so far from us. Our dear friend, Helen Cullum, ROHAN Irish Wolfhounds, lives in Florida; wonderful Karen Camarena, Criadero Azteca Lobero Irlandes (shown here), lives in Guadalajara, Mexico--well, actually in Arandas about 1 hour from there; and, super friends Trish and Jamey Gibson, Keller Irish Wolfhounds, are closer in San Diego, California about 90 minutes away. They are all just getting started and SUNSTAG will be behind them for as long as they need us. As Helen has her own website, we will just talk a bit about Karen in Mexico and her "beginnings", Chip and Kisses. A new website for Keller Irish Wolfhounds has just open. Please feel free to also contact any of them for more information.

THE SUNSTAG (Reg.) Karen and husband, Alex (a Veterinarian--nice to have one in the family!), have chosen AZTECA as the name for their kennel, I do know that it reflects their Mexican Heritage and National History. Imagine the wonderful Aztec, Toltec and Mayan names for their puppies! Impossible to pronounce, yet exciting to share in the heritage of the Family! Please Meet Karen Camarena and Chip (Briarwood's Mexican
Son, related to paternal grandparents
Dezi and Camille (see them on the
Sunstag Alpha Reference List), down on the farm in
Arandas, Mexico. Chip is currently (2006) the Number One Irish Wolfhound in
Mexico. His many group placements have been very rewarding to Karen and
Alex as they start a new facet of their show breeding kennel as Exhibitors
of a new male, Dale. Chip's
temperament and structure are very correct and judges reward it each time
he is presented. Their bitch, Kisses (Sunstag XXXX), has completed her
Mexican Championship and is ranked number two Irish Wolfhound in Mexico.
Their newest Irish Wolfhound, Dale, will be making his mark shortly, and
we will have photos to share soon. |

Sunstag XXXX (Kisses). She earned her first point at 6 months old
and a finished Champion at 17 months. She is 6 months in this picture. (See parents
Sir and Hope.). Her sister,
Sunstag OOOO (Hugs) can be seen as New Champion, aged 20 months, at
Keller Irish Wolfhounds. |
WHAT A PAIR!!! Can't you just see their "children"? We
are very excited about the eventual combination of this lovely pair. |
