Description

This handsome true black macho has a great substance of bone supporting a sturdy eye-pleasing frame. His well-organized locks shimmer with luster. Best of all, he has a sweet mellow personality and an intelligent mind. Because of his luster, Rio is one of those true blacks with a blue cast. He has well-locked fleece with nice fineness, density, and a good handle. Rio has grown into a good-sized male with a solid, well-balanced frame. A calm but confident nature makes him an easy keeper. GVA Rio Grande has Psylent Knight (top 10% EPDs) as his sire, who threw many color champions in his pedigree. GVA Rio Grande has DDF Peruvian Macgyver, Sierra Bonita's MacGyver's Mojo, Pperuvian Bruxo, and GVA Coaldust, Top (10% EPDs) in all the right places in four categories.
