About us
Gladio Nero
affix has been recognized from the F.C.I. in July 2001, therefore the kennel is quite recent.In 80's, in Bologna "the dobermann fashion" exploded and many of my friends had these magnificent dogs with "pompous names"!
I bought my first Dobermann in a pet shop of Bologna, a brown male from Hungary. I named him Beep.
When Beep died I went to Vergiate (close to Milan) to buy a puppy from a professional breeding and I brought home Ulrik dei Nobili Nati; a powerful black male, son of the champion Quinn dei Nobili Nati.
Ulrik never partecipate to any exposition or gatherings, he was the family dog, a friend, the true master of the garden.
In 1996 Ulrik died for kidney failure.
In that period I was working between Genoa and Milan, I suffered for the lack of such a dog, so every now and then I went to visit a dog training court in Genoa.
The chief of the training court told where to find a "true champion".
I went in this famous italian kennel and, to a high price, I bought an 8 months puppy, my "future champion"!
Back at Bologna with the dog, after few weeks, on warning of my coach, I gave the puppy back to the breeding because it was not exactly the kind of Dobermann was looking for. After a long day of discussion and after paing more money, the breeder replaced the puppy with another one.
Unfortunately I had met the wrong breeder because also the second puppy did not have the characteristics and the potentialities to become a champion and I gave it to a friend.
Coach Silvano told me to visit a kennel with puppies in Vergiate so, for the second time in my life, I went to the Nobili Nati Kennel where I bought my first female of Dobermann, PRADA DEI NOBILI NATI (Ch. Dior For Regent Blue X Mizar dei Nobili Nati).With Prada I started to partecipate to dog shows in Italy and other country, two I.D.C., and the training.
October ’98 the first mating with the Multi Champion JIVAGO VAN HET WANTIJ, I have been the FIRST ITALIAN BREEDER to use this dog.
From this mating born ARDITA GLADIO, a beautiful brown female.
Prada dei Nobili Nati is the founder of the GLADIO NERO DOBERMANN KENNEL
