The beginning of this kennel came to be as the result of the great love for dogs, since childhood, of  Adriana and Patricia Jaramillo, who upon seeing the number of dogs they had, decided to extend their facilities for the growing number of  their canine family.

The Kennel VISHNU DEL CYPRES is located in Colombia, in a town close to Bogota and is part of a beautiful cattle ranch named “Hacienda las Mercedes”, which has been in the Jaramillo family for many generations. Today the kennel consist of approximately 4.000 square meters, distributed in a housing area where we can find 11 comfortable kennels, an administration office, a whelping area, a kitchen and grooming facilities, and approximately 2.000 square meters of a training field.

The first breed with which the Jaramillo sisters (twins) began their dog showing career was Labrador Retrievers in 1989.  “Camilo” and “Oliverio, their first show dog, were the offspring of the great VISHNU DEL CEDRO, “Jacobo”, from which comes a list of Colombian and International champions and the name of the kennel. Among their champions we can mention the magnificent SIMON DEL TOTUMO, who made history in the country with his many BISS nationally and internationally during his short, but incredible career. His offspring TIRSO , multiple Champion,  the famous chocolate bitch AVINE NULANG TIFFANY, winner of several Labrador Specialties  nationally and internationally. Her son, VISHNU VALERIO DEL CYPRES, also multiple BISS is considered one of the best stud dogs in the country. Today the kennel is  proud to have a group of champions all offspring of the great “Valerio”, PHORTOS, ILONA and CAYETANA, with whom the kennel continues to reap success in the many national and international shows.

In l996 the Jaramillo twins discover, fall in love and bring to the country a beautiful Clumber Spaniel male with whom they begin their successful showing career with their second breed. This male is QUAIL HOLLOW’S PINK CHAMPAGNE “ Bruno”. Because of “Bruno” they meet Douglas A. Johnson  considered  the best breeder of Clumber Spaniels in the world.  With his guidance they began breeding and showing this beautiful new breed. Two years later, in l999, they import a female from the United States,      AVALEA CRÈAM DE MENTHE,  “Yara”,  from which they obtain their first litter in the country. In this litter  the great VISHNU QUIJOTE DEL CYPRES. was born. With his many triumphs in the country and abroad  Quijote has managed to make the Kennel world- known.  He has won recognition in Colombia, Peru, Ecuador, Europe, Australia and the United States, where he was the number one Clumber in 2005.
He won the breed two years in a row in Westminster and once in the EUKANUBA  National. In May of 2005 the Jaramillos participated in the biggest Clumber National Specialty  in Pittsburgh where they won the BIS, and perhaps the award that makes them most proud  the “Rae Furness Award “, as breeders of the year.
