2007 Semen import to Australia, owned by Takas.

Zwingli Des Potteries (aka BAJO) was bred by Gilles Galand in Belgium and imported to Italy by Nino Azzolin.

Bajo's pedigree is a step back in time to the early history and FCI breed recognition of the Anatolian �oban Kopegi. His lineage represents historic �oban Kopegi. in Europe, culminating the Turkish imports and vision of Natalka Czartoryska - world recognised 'Hisar' prefix;
and G'ALIGO and B'ASLAN - aboriginal �oban K�pegi, the first imports from Turkey into France during the late 1970s.

Bajo is Italian Champion; a multiple CAC-CACIB winner in Italy and France; Champion Italian-Spanish-International, and European Champion 2004.

In Australia, Bajo's legacy and the breed history of his pedigree are upheld by the high caliber and quality exterior of Bajo's offspring. Notably:
Aus Champion TAKAS CIO CIO SAN - BEST IN SHOW Anatolian Shepherd Dog COV Specialty 2013; Aus Champion TAKAS DRAGON - SAMPIYON PARENT & PROGENY; Aus Champion TAKAS NESSUN OBI - SAMPIYON MOVEMENT; Working Stock Protection Dog TAKAS TOSCA (employed guardian of 350 cashmere goats); and Takas CALAF (prepotent sire perpetuating traditional lion dog physique).

~ TAKAS �oban Kopegi kindly thank Nino Azzolin of ASLAN kennels in Italy, for facilitating the export of Bajo's semen, and permitting Bajo for ongoing breeding in Australia ~
