GCH CH Made to Win Paradise Club VHMA

Pumbaa is an AKC GRAND Champion!  He is an outstanding addition to our program and is a proven stud with a shining record of Eastern European Conformation titles and wins.  At the end of point tabulation in September 2025, Pumbaa [GCH CH Made to Win Paradise Club] was ranked 47th in the Nation. This is HUGE. I am so proud that he is the sire of so many of my beautiful puppies.

He is a lovable goofball that completely loses his mind over squeaky toys.  His daughter, River, achieved a 4 point win at her first show when she was only 6 months and 2 days old.  River (Blue House Her Name is Rio) is proof that Pumbaa makes beautiful puppies.  He has perfect OFA testing and has received his CHIC #, indicating his successful testing.  He has been recognized for his beautiful build, gait and expression by AKC judges as he worked toward his titles.  He’s won Best of Breed multiple times and he’s placed well in the Toy Group competition more than once.

I recently had a conversation with Pumbaa’s breeder that made me more grateful for him than ever!  His birthdate is April 1st, 2022 and his breeder is from Ukraine.  Here is what she says about the war that started 4  days after the pregnancy was confirmed:

“All four puppies that were seen on the ultrasound survived! On March 18, I managed to escape from Mariupol, and the puppies were born in the city of Dnipro. I came to Poland when the puppies were 11 days old. Together with the babies, I traveled 1500 kilometers. That is why this boy is so special to me.”
We think he’s pretty special, too.

In addition, he has a family history of LONGEVITY.  On his mother’s side, his Grandmother (8.5 years old with a grade A heart) and Great Grandmother (11 years old) are both doing very well!  His father is also alive and well, and we are searching for more information about that line.

His temperament is affectionate and fun-loving.  His lovely soft expression is something we often see in his puppies.  He is eager to please and has earned his Virtual Home Manners Adult title to prove it. GOOD BOY, Pumbaa!
