Ciro is powerhouse of a Rottweiler with an incredible pedigree to match. When people say you have a once in a lifetime dog, Ciro is the kind of dog they are talking about. He has never quitting drives, hard grips, and fast entries on suit or sleeve.  Based on research he is the first Rottweiler to be titled to a French Ring 1 in NARA, and the first Rottweiler to be titled to a MR1 in USMRA. He is also the only Rottweiler in the United States to hold both titles. We got him as an adult and we were training for his SchH1 when he tore a ligament in his back leg in 2010 which caused us to switch sports to ringsport where he wouldn't be required to jump. As his leg injury has shown progress we have considered bringing him back to SchH in 2014 depending on how he does but he certainly does not act his age. One judge who saw him at 7 years old commented that there should be no issue competing him for 3-4 more years with how good he looks. We were blessed that he lived another 6 years past his retirement for dog sports, still as active (and no grey muzzle!). 

Ciro passed away on December 5, 2018 from Lymphoma at 12+ years old.
