In 2014 we celebrate 15 years with the wonderful breed that stole our hearts; Chinese Crested Dog.
We put quality before quantity and only a few well planned litters have seen the light of day under our prefix, Sirocco. We are proud to say that hard work, long term planning, determination and lots of love really has payed of!

We have the first powder puff ever to win the Group (and BIS 4) at a show arranged by the Swedish Kennel Club. We also have the first powder puff ever to win Best In Show at a show arranged by the Swedish Toy Dog Association! We are also over the moon that we have bred Group winners and BIS Placers, BIS- Puppy-Junior- Intermediate, Specialty BIS Reserve, champions in several countries inc. FCI INTCH, winner titles, top 20 breed list placings, Crested Of The Year in Japan 2012 & 2013. Dogs that we own have also won Breed Specialty BIS and BIS at STDA.

Thank you to all our lovely puppy buyers who take such great care of their Sirocco babies! We are so proud of you! Also thanks to all who appreciate our dogs and us as breeders, friends and family! We are forever grateful!

Started the year with a bang! Went to two international shows in Sofia, Bulgaria, with Thea (Sirocco Jealousy Breeds Envy) and her dad Charlie (Ch Sirocco Welcome To The Black Parade). Thea was also entered to two national Georgian shows. What they accomplished are amazing!

16th of February, Georgia Nat, Judge Galina Todorova

Thea does not only go BOB with CAC and becomes Georgian Champion, she is also GROUP FIRST and RESERVE BEST IN SHOW! What an amazing way to end the trip! We are over the moon because she is our first home bred and owned Group winner and all breed BIS placer.

16th of February, Sofia INT, Judge Jovica Golubovic

Charlie went BOB with CACIB and CAC over his daughter Thea who got BOS with CACIB and CAC! Both of them got their BULGARIAN CHAMPION TITLES and Thea also qualifyed for her SWEDISH and FINNISH CHAMPION TITLES!

15th of February, Sofia INT, Judge Nikolina Davidovska

Charlie went best male with CAC and CACIB which qualifyed him for his INTERNATIONAL CHAMPION TITLE C.I.B! He is our first home bred and owned C.I.B! Thea went best bitch with CAC and CACIB but was beaten by her dad Charlie in the Best Of Breed competition!

15th of February, Georgia Nat, Judge Georgi Hristozov

Thea went all the way by becoming not only best bitch with CAC but also Best Of Breed!

9th of February, Pello Finland, Judge Nina Karlsdotter

Rossi (Sirocco Greedy Hands Of Man) goes second best male with R-CAC on his first show of the year! Big congratulations to co-owner/handler Niklas Enerstedt!

Yet another year has passed by and we can establish that 2013 has been even more amazing than we could ever have dreamt of! A huge thanks you to all who take such great care of their Sirocco dogs! Also a big thanks to all our friends and the judges who have acknowledged our dogs! Now we’re looking forward to 2014!

7th of December, Stockholm SW-13 INT

With us on the last, and most prestigious, show of the year we had three dogs; the young siblings Thea (Sirocco Jealousy Breeds Envy) and Rossi (Sirocco Greedy Hands Of Man) and the grand old lady Qita (MultiCh BIS BISS BISS-Veteran Nikita), and they all did great! Rossi went exc second in the intermediate class with CQ under judge Robert Dunlop. Qita went best veteran bitch with exc and CQ and later on BOS-Veteran under judge Hans Van Den Berg. Thea won the intermediate class with exc and CQ and ended the day by becoming third best bitch with R-CAC under breed specialist Robert Dunlop (Habiba). Worth to mention is that the final four in the best bitch competition consisted of four of the top five bitches this year in Sweden.

17th of November, Lilleström INT, Judge Jean Lanning

Thea (Sirocco Jealousy Breeds Envy) did great at her first show in Norway. With an entry of over 80 cresteds she won the intermediate class with exc and CQ and ended the day by being placed as third best bitch with R-CAC! The judge gave her a stunning written and open critique.
