Hi, I just found this site today. I live in Norway and I'm staying in Spain during the winter. I am probably the person someone mentioned here that had been writing on the Leerburg disc. forum. Yes, I started to train my alano female to make an IPO/Sch title on her because the breeder promised me that I would get a FCI pedigree in short time. I am not allowed to train IPO/Schutzhund with her because you need a licence to train IPO in Norway and the dog needs to be registered in the Norwegian kennel club and I can not register her without the FCI pedigree! It is of course very disappointing and I have lost the motivation to train her because if/when the breed gets registered she will probably be too old. But of course we still do some obedience training and I love the breed! In the meantime I have bought a malinois, but would like to get a IPO-title on my alano, if I ever get the chance :wink: Here is a link with some pictures of my "Puma" front page and page 2 http://www.dogbreedinfo.com/alanoespanol.htm
