Sire: Admiral's Commandor ARI#
1442564 Beige Admiral's COMMANDOR is truly an amazing alpaca with all the potential to become a LEGENDARY SURI HERDSIRE! He has exceptional conformation with heavy bone and more coverage than he has skin! From birth, Commandor has shown such pressence, as if to say "Look At Me, Here I Am!". Having that "SOFT ROLLING SKIN" feel and that "GREASY" handle to his fleece. HE HAS LUSTER, LUSTER, LUSTER, !!! Exceptional lock structure with uniformity from head to tail to toe. Beige in color and has extreme density through-out this "TOTAL PACKAGE" Suri alpaca.
"COMMANDOR" is the son of PIVAL ACCOYO ADMIRAL by ACCOYO ACE, two awesome Sires. His Dam won 1st place "Produce of Dam" at AOBA Nationals 2005. PENELOPE, a beautiful Peruvian-Alianza Import. She is the other half to this incredible FULL PERUVIAN, 1/2 ACCOYO, 1/2 ALIANZA Herdsire; an "ALA*COYO"
"COMMANDOR" won his first Color Championship at MAPACA 2005 at only 6 & 1/2 months at the biggest alpaca show to date. So far, he has earned a total of Ten-1st places, Eight Color Championships and Two Reserve Championships. Finishing the first show season with becoming Light Color Champion at the 2005 AOBA National. All of this under 19 months of age. He finished in 2006 earning 10 Championships!
Dam: DDF Sophia ARI#
801488 Medium Brown Sophia is that very special alpaca that we all hope to one day have in our own suri herd! She has an exceptional pedigree, exceptional quality, exceptional personality and produces EXCEPTIONAL cria, year after year! Her dam was considered to be one of the finest colored Peruvian female suris to enter the United States. A half-sister to both MacGyver, 3-time Herdsire of the Year at AAA Futurity and Peruvian Gracie (deceased), Sophia has proven her worth on OUR farm and remains one of our premier foundation females.
Sophia's cria have all been 1st place ribbon winners in their classes, including her 2003 Captain Morgan daughter, Satin Doll, who at just a year of age garnered a Color Champion, 2 Reserve Color Champions and four 1st place finishes! Sophia has produced 5 crias out of 5 different sires and they have all been exceptional quality. Her 2007 cria, Sophia's Augustina, was named after her maternal granddam and, given HER quality, she's destined to carry on the award-winning tradition of her dam. Look for her in the showring and prepare to be impressed!
Sophia was the 3rd and final cria birthed by her dam, Peruvian Augustina, who died following the birth (and loss) of her 4th cria. We had no idea WHAT we were doing when we purchased Sophia at 6 months of age, nor did we know what precious commodity we were acquiring. Since then, we have come to appreciate her quality and her uniqueness.
We have not offered any of Sophia's female offspring for sale until now....WP Captain's Pearl Locket LTD is on our sales list - check her out! With 2 daughters of Sophia in our "core herd", we have decided to share this bloodline with the alpaca community. Pearl is sure to produce colored offspring and carries the genotype and phenotype to become a member of anyone's core suri herd.
Description
Argo....in search of the Golden Fleece......FOUND IT!! Argo is a grandson of one of the finest colored suri females ever imported into the United States - Augustina. Her daughter, DDF Sophia, was a consistant producer of show stopping offspring until her death in 2012 - just 3 months after delivering Argo. Her last big hurrah and she certainly delivered!
Argo has wowed the judges in all the big shows he was shown in including AOBA, Futurity, GWAS, and CABA Classic. With six 1sts, two color championships and one reserve championship, he has proven himself. He carries excellent conformation and a dense, lustrous fleece. Unfortunately, we have a lot of herdsires and he hasn't gotten nearly the number of breedings we would have hoped for. He needs to be put to work and make a name for himself.
