GCH Cotton’s Brazil Tour 2018
Am GCH BellaRose Holly Bluff High Cotton, "Cotton" is visiting Patty Oliveira of Olives Mount Kennel in San Palo, Brazil, for 2018. Sherry Deeds and I are THRILLED we have this opportunity. He will be returning to the US for the 2019 ASSA Nationals at Purina Farms in Gray's Summit, MO. Cotton is presented to our Brazilian and Caribbean friends in South America by the wonderfully talented showman Cleber Oliveira. Patty and Cleber plan to campaign Cotton to the #1 ranking for 2018! None of this would have been possible without the help of our good friend, Cyndy Ermel, Carmel Shetland Sheepdogs, Home of the #1 Sheltie in Canada.
The first step in our adventure was getting Cotton to Brazil. So… I flew Cotton to Detroit where he was picked up by Ivan Fabina. Ivan took Cotton to Cyndy Ermels home in Canada. Cotton was waiting to meet his new co-owner Patty Oliveira
Patty Oliveira flew from her home in Brazil to spend some time at Cermel Shelties. Then she took Cotton back to Brazil with her.
Cotton travels easily and has more Frequent Flyer mile that you can imagine!
When Cotton arrived in Brazil he received tons of Kisses from Patty’s girls.
Cotton settled in with Patty’s other Shelties and felt right at home.
Time for some South American Grooming!
The first order of business was a photo shoot with Patty and Cleber.
