30-12-2007Just such a short
time after the death of Terra and Isodora we have again
sad news. With pain in our hart we had to say goodbye to
our Dolce and Bazza. Although we could not miss Dolce yet,
our decision to put her to sleep was not a difficult one.
The last day's of her live, Dolce was very ill. At the age
of almost ten years Dolce died of cancer. Di Ala D'Oro kennel
have to thank Dolce for many things. Her excellent performance
at National en International show and field trails made
our kennel where it is today, at the top. At home Dolce
gave us a lot of love and happiness. We miss her so much,
it is quiet in our house.
The very bad news about Bazza came to us by our shocked
and broken-hearted friends Rob en Michelle. Their sweet
Bazza had an accident during their daily walk. She run into
a twig, witch causes internal bleedings and although Rob
and Michelle directly understood that they had to hurry,
her injuries were so badly that she died on her way to the
vet. The sorrow about Bazza's much to early death is enormous.
02-12-2007New
pictures on the webpage, yesterday we took lovely pictures
from Silvestro and Miuccia Prada in Drenthe. And pictures

01-12-2007Miuccia
Prada "Motje" who just last week received the
CACIB at the Amsterdam Winner, showed her son Silvestro
today what the real work is at our hunt in Drenthe. Together
with our friend Wim van Rossum we have our private hunt
in the North part of Holland (Drenthe). Today it was lovely,
splendid weather lots of sun no rain. "Motje already
showed us in Italy and Poland that she is talented in the
field. Silvestro seems to have taken over this talent from
his mother, grandmother and great grand mother. His performance
was so good today that although it is still a young dog
Jaap will bring him to Drenthe next time.

mother, grandmother and great grandmother of many National,
International and European (youth) Champions reached the
