Prada is such a sweety pie. How can you look into those big black pools for eyes and not be wrapped around her little finger? Her eyes are so soulful and gentle just like she is, except for when she is chasing birds, rabbits, cows and horses! She loves to chase and run, and run. She is very energetic, extremely fit and fast, for such a stocky girl. But she loves to laze around in the sun, even when its 38 degrees!

Prada just loves to be near you and is always at our feet whether we are on the lounge watching tv or at the dining room table eating. She is never pushy, but very polite and if she wants a pat, she very gently paws you with one of her front feet until you give in and rub her belly. She is the quiet achiever, never in your face, but sitting, waiting calmly and patiently.

She loves the show ring, has a lovely head and a beautiful topline. She is a gorgeous dark brindle, following in her mums footsteps and keeping the winning Anmenta brindle tradition going. There aren’t a lot of brindles around, especially in the show ring but Prada does her utmost to persuade everyone that brindle is the original and best! Many people have commented that they don’t like the brindles, but once they meet Prada in the flesh, they soon change their minds. How can you resist such a face?

Unfortunately Prada has been overshadowed in the ring by her fawn sister, but has still notched up some good results. It is very difficult for a good brindle to make it’s mark when you are constantly competing against the most popular colour, fawn and a lot of judges don’t get to see brindles. One of our aims here at Anmenta, is to produce top quality brindles that can go into the showring and be seen by judges. The only way to educate, is to get more brindles out there and competing. We are hoping that Prada’s progeny will do that. Once you’ve had black, you’ll never go back!!

Whilst motherhood is not Prada’s favourite occupation, she has blessed us with some lovely puppies. Including two champions in New Zealand from her second litter. She’s not too keen on the puppies when they are first born, she finds the whole birthing thing quite messy and distasteful, living up to her designer name. Once they are on solid foods, then she likes them a whole lot more and mothers them. Retired from the showring now and desexed, she just likes to hang around with sister Phoebe (they do everything together) and generally be a big sook! Prada is a very special girl and we love her to pieces.
