Presa Canario in Poland
It’s not an easy topick to talk
about Polish dogs. But when writing about presas it is necessary to
write about the beginning of presa history in my country.
When the first presa’s came to Poland
little was known about them (or rather nothing was known). And first
presas came to Poland in 1997. Not many people knew how they should look
or behave. The best breeding lines also wasn’t known well. First imports
came to Artur Tomaszczyk from Gliwice – this where imports from
Slovakia. The first litter was born in 12.07.1998 in “Przystań Abelarda”
kennel with belonged to Krzysztof Mrozowski from Serock, parents of this
litter were dogs brought from Slovakia: Yeyo de Maxorata (Don de
Maxorata x Luna) and Bety Hamigo (Sabio x Biasa). In short time came
first imports from Spain and Canary Islands. The first dogs with
Spanish/Canary origin came to kennels: Presa Awangarda belonging to
Paweł Kasprzak, Xanti Land belonging to Agata Olejnik, Merkator
belonging to Barbara Pałka, Dolina Rosy belonging to Wojciech Rosa and
Validus. This dogs were:

and other...
Now breeding of Presa Canario is
developing into good way. Some of our breeders coopeate with breeders
from Spain. Also polish Canario' are more and more famous o foeign rings
also on those of World, European and Specialioty Club Shows. Our dogs
managed to win titles:
-

In Spain few our dogs had succeses on show rings. First
polish dog shown in sain was Ch.Cuco Xanti Land (Ch.Pl. Puntal de Vega Lagunera x Ch.Pl.
Zw.Kl. Yaisa de Casa del Presa). It was in Alicante, December 2000 and Cuco
recived res.CAC in open clas. In 2004 our dogs were shown in Barcelona
on European show. Best of Breed went to Woo Doo Show Xanti Land (Ch.Esp. Tamaran x Ch.Pl. Zw.Kl. Yaisa de Casa
del Presa) from champions class, in females with excellent, 4th was Nega Wojtabreja Klub (Ch.Pl.
Mł.Zw.Eur. Cuco Xanti Land x Tinta Xanti Land). In september 2006 on two
International shows in León i Vigo (obligatory point) was shon Parisienne de Presa Awangarda (Ch.Pl. Zw.Kl.
Zw.Eur. Chuck Norris de Presa Awangarda x Dama de Presa Awangarda) and
every time she was rated 1st, excellent in junior class.
Every yer more pupps are beeing produced. Some from
breedings made in Spain. They are becoming more and moe popular in
Poland and we have few hundred of DC registered at this moment.
Unfortunatelly next to reputable breeders we see more and more breeders
focused on easy money breeding unhealthy dogs, untypical and sometimes
also without pedigrees...
At this moment in Poland breeders focuse on lowering
inbreeding in dogs as almost all ogs from this population are relatives
in some way.
The future of the breed is in heands of lovers and
fanciers of Presas. This are us who create this breed. From us depands
if Presa will be Presa even after many many more generations or we will
change the breed into something different for sake of... ??? We have to
avoid breeding for public. We have to breed for what a presa should be -
a presa, molloser of medium size with extraordinary character and
personality. The one tha can not be forgotten. Time will show what we
will do with this marvelous dog...
