Tornado Beta

We are proud to announce the „Tornado Beta“ – the first curly coated retriever kennel in Lithuania.

We are Rima and Girėnas Povilionis. We have three retriever bitches at this moment. They are – labrador retriever Gama and two first curly coated retriever representatives in Lithuania – aristocratic curlies Beta and Dessy.

In 2007 we brought the first curly to Lithuania – a black bitch Beta (Laseland Betty Barclay) from Russian kennel in Moscow. Already a labrador bitch Gama with wonderful temperament was living with us. Gama is very loving, resigned, loyal and good-natured bitch. After Beta has come to us everything changed upside-down. The black curly is totally opposite to the gentle mood of labrador. As Beta was a little puppy and as grown up it never stopped to bluster over the yard like a real hurricane. It is a kind dog that appears everywhere. Also it is a dog that is ready to please you because it likes to do so very much.

After we’ve met Beta this breed has become very special for us. So we decided to bring one more curly two years later. Hereby in the beginning of 2009 the second curly – liver bitch Dessy (Curly Cottage Jezebell) from Sweden came to us.

Also we registered the kennel at that time. It wasn’t hard to choose the name for the kennel. Our passionate Beta with its fiery and wild temperament reflects the most beautiful characteristic in this breed.

The kennel Tornado Beta is registered at Federation Cynologique Internationale (FCI), FCI No 131/08, owner Girėnas Povilionis.Beta (Laseland Betty Barclay), 2009 May 30, photo A. Simonavičius.
