Astro came to the kennel November 23rd, 2014 from his breeder Iva Uriankova and Kennel Royal Rives in the Czech Republic. He is a young boy in many ways. He is so full of energy and has a mind of his own.
"Astro" means "star" in Portugese. He is born July 19th 2014
Astro is a star in the pack here at home and it is with great sadness that I've pulled him out of any breeding plans due to newly diagnosed allergies. He has a suberb mentality, but I will not breed a dog with allergies- he will be left to influence the other dogs and future puppies, being a wonderful role model for the other dogs.
