Congratulations to Tartan Acres for their purchase of 1/2 interest in IF Santiago! When you see 12-time Champion Santiago, the first thing you notice is his beautiful head with short muzzle, correct ear set and shape. The eye is then drawn to his balanced frame supported by a set of legs even a runway model would appreciate. His motion and gate is fluid (in fact, we imagine him carrying a container of water on his head and not spilling a drop as he moves about). And, as to his fleece ... • Glowing brightness (like his dad's). • Super soft handle. • Superb coverage with a dense top knot and heavy fleece to the ground. • Remarkable consistency in terms of fineness, crimp frequency and amplitude, staple organization, and (perhaps most important for a black) color. His pedigree includes the genetic powerhouses: A.L. Paca's Revolution, Peruvian Bueno (Alianza) and Accoyo's King, Royal Fawn and Caligula. IF Santiago's offspring are already securing 1st Place and Championship placements in the show ring! Co-owned with Tartan Acres in New York where is is standing currently.
