In the early 80' s Paul Wilkes from Mass./USA contacted me. He wanted to breed his SC-female "Germina z Farmy Zbiroh", but didn' t have had a male for her. So he asked for sending sperms of my "Grant z Kmochova rodiste".
I tried everything, but it was not allowed at this time, to send sperms (cold in a gasliquid) to USA.
So I called him, to ask: shall I come personal with my Grant. So he can mate Germina directly. He want to discuss this first with his wife Nancy, but finally it was the 12th day of heat, he agreed. Directly I booked a flight to NY, where Paul was waiting. Some hours drive to his farm. Grant jumped out of the car, even he was been more than 8 hours prisoner in his box- and it took 4 minutes and he was hanging. What a good job.

Paul Wilkes bought Germina z Farmy Zbiroh ( a gigantic female)from Dr. J. Schoen. One of the dogs , he owned at that time. He was looking for a good home. He was feeling to old. With his Czech heritage, he was all his life in love with SC. So he founded a club for this rare breed in 1982.
Paul Wilkes, from Slovakian heritage was totally in love with these dogs.
All pups of Germina where healthy and found soon a good home. One male, looking like Germina was taken over by his nephew "Phil Ford". Paul hold "Betka", named to Elisabeth.
The first litter of Betka was beautiful. In the meanwhile Elisabeth brought 2 males (z Kmochova rodiste and vom Boehmerwald) to Mass., so breeding was no longer a problem.
At the first Kennelmeeting Elisabeth flew in to be a part of the part.
There she met the nicest people. Nancy and Ed Smith from Mass. bought Anuska. Later they wanted too to breed. They founded the kennel of White Star, Phil Ford's wife was at the kennelmeeting too. Elisabeth visited some weeks before the International Dog Show in Vienna/Austria. Ingrid Mikulasova was helpful, to find a beautiful femalepup, which Elisabeth brought with to Wilkes farm for her. Ali Anta was the first female at the kennel of Sandy Acres and had had great babies.
Nancy Smith bought in 1993 the 1. Slovensky Cuvac Dog club of Amerika 1982 from J. Schorn, and started to be buisy arround this breed.
Phil +and Vicky Ford, Nancy and Ed Smith and Elisabeth met several times (Florida, Washington etc) to show their dogs at ARBA-shows.
Always most successful. And always we met people, they also owned a SC. So the club of SC-lover was fast growing.
Dr. Edward Tulea was one of the importent contacts. Cuvac owner and breeder.
At the moment (April 2012)their are 71 Cuvac in USA and Canada.
