Marisol is a lovely TB granddaughter of 4Peruvian Meteor and a daughter of Supreme Color Champion and AOBA National Color Show Champion Kobe of PVA. She has a beautiful head and a pleasing, well-proportioned body. She is sturdy and compact, with an extremely alert presence and spritely walk. Marisol is a gentle animal and easy to handle. She has a curious disposition, always interested in coming up to you to say "hi" and sniff your face. Her mothering instincts are excellent, as well as her milk production. Marisol has the fleece we've been searching for to be our #1 foundation black, suri female. She is drop dead gorgeous. Her locks are tight and well-defined, very fine for a black suri, and she has fantastic luster. When you touch this animal you just can't believe how wonderfully soft and substantial it feels. Recently we had an apprentice "certified sorter" grade her 2008 fleece and it was evaluated with a score of 9 on a scale of 1-10 (with 10 being high) for brightness (luster) which is an extremely nice fleece. The sorter wrote "strong brightness & uniformity in a fine fleece." Bred to PVA's Gambini - a dark rose grey - she produced 'Sandoval of VA' on 5/19/2008. He is true black, and gorgeous in every way. We showed Sandoval in 2009, and he won 2nd place behind GVA Bellafonte at each show. Sandoval has a very soft handle to his high luster fleece. Sandoval has a beautiful male cria on the ground - Bay Black and gorgeous. We have several females bred to him and are very excited to see his next offspring. Marisol was bred to Koyoto of PVA spring 2010, a dark brown champion with DDF Macgyver as sire, and dam, Keana, out of Mahogany Prince. "Good Voodoo", her Dark Brown male cria was born 8/24/11 and is a stunning dark suri. Greasy locks with independent structure; great luster, straight and strong conformation. Just what we like to see. Marisol was bred 9/17/2013 to Finnegan of VA, a beautiful LF male out of Sierra Bonita's Peruvian Zapotta. Marisol delivered a lovely MF male cria on 8/27/2014. Male cria is healthy and beautiful.

Description

Sandoval, first cria from Marisol of PVA X Gambini of PVA is TB and truly lovely. Fleece is bright with luster - soft as silk, nicely structured. Lots of fiber on head, beard, neck and legs. Sandy has a great disposition. Inquisitive, quiet, pleasant to handle. Gets along well with others. Impressive results in the show ring. Judges comment on his silky, soft hand and high luster. We think the soft hand, good density, consistent lock structure and VERY nice luster will be a winning combination on this male. We're already plotting various pairings on and off our farm! First breeding was to our blue-ribbon winning "Velveteen's Bristol-Cream" – a medium brown with white face which produced a very nice, totally solid color Bay Black male cria, "Halahuni." This animal is so nice looking we repeated the breeding. Sandy X Bristol-Cream (TB X MB) produced BB male 9/21/11 we named Halahuni. Halahuni has bred his first females. Sandy X This is Ruthie! (TB X TB) produced TB female 8/22/12 we named Famke. She looks great. Sandy X Magic Rumor (TB X MB) produced TB female 9/8/12 we named Kismet. She too looks great. Sandy X Bristol-Cream (TB X MB) produced DB female 9/17/12 we named Rubicon. White blaze on nose; fabulous girl. Sandy X Merrielle (TB X LF) produced a big, precocious LF male 8/9/13. Sandy X This is Ruthie! (TB X TB) produced a perfect conformation, knock out DRG male 8/23/13. (first DRG for us!!!) Sandy X Balboa's Maruca (TB X LF) produced a very striking MB male 9/18/13. We love you Sandoval! Your babies are the bomb! You can purchase Sandoval of VA for a song. Make us an offer and he's yours. He is a GREAT animal with lovely progeny, a terrific disposition. We encourage you to take a look, meet him, make us an offer, take him home.
