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 Çoban Kopegi. His lineage represents historic Çoban Kopegi. in Europe, culminating the Turkish imports and vision of Natalka Czartoryska - world recognised 'Hisar' prefix;
and G'ALIGO and B'ASLAN - aboriginal Çoban Köpegi, 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 Çoban 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 ~
