DARLIN DP - THE STORY

It all began when Carlu Portwig lived in Mauritius for 3 years when he picked up a little puppy in the North on a beach, with a broken leg and covered in mange. He took Peppi to the Vet and she became the companion he desperately needed. He brought her back to South Africa when he returned and started doing research about what possibly could be the ancestry of Peppi. Eventually it was between a Manchester Terrier or a German Pinscher. Peppi was a little too big and brown to be a Manchester Terrier.

Research did not lead me to any breeder in South Africa and after contacting KUSA to confirm no one has ever bread this amazing breed in South Africa.


Importing a new breed into a country can be very daunting but we research breeders across the world and finally Klára Haskova agreed to allow us to import Kyrene CeKa Set Bohemicus from the Czech Republic to South Africa. It was shortly after the COVID pandemic and she only flew in when she was around 8 months old. Kyrene has grown into a beautiful example of this breed and is an Excellent example of a female within breed standard.
