Hello and welcome on our website, the virtual home of Tender Ebony giants.
Our first newfoundland came into our life during the spring of 2003. It was a wonderful sweet girl that arrived to us from Hungary thanks to our actuall friend Monica who was the owner of Indy’s litter sister, Nera. Back then there were very few good quality newfoundlands in Romania and they were all imported from abroad. Indy changed our life forever since then ! We loved the Newfoundland breed for it’s amazing sweet and gentle temperament, but also for the beautiful looks and size, but Indy made our dream of owning such a dog much more beautiful. At the beginning we were not interested in showing, we just wanted a beautiful newfoundland girl for the family, but as Indy grew up, we could not resist the temptation of taking her to some shows ! We were very happy when at our first show in the spring of 2004, our Indy went Best Junior and BOB winner from all the newfies entered in that show. The judges loved her and her pictures showed up in the national Dog Magazine at the Newfoundland Breed article. So we kept going to more shows and Indy earned more and more good results. In that year she was the Top Winning Newfoundland in Romania. There was no way of going back, we got “infected” with the “showing virus”. When Indy was 2 years old we decided to breed her, but we wanted a good quality black male and in all the shows she was better than all the males entered. But then a wonderful male was imported from Hungary, from the famous Skipper’s Kennel. His callname was Atok, pedigree name : Charming Boy For Skipper’s Of BigFoot Valley and he was the son of the Multi Champion Midnight Lady’s Especially For You. Atok was already a big winner of many international shows abroad. In may 2005, our first litter was born out of Indy and Atok, 7 wonderful puppies, 2 girls and 5 boys. We have kept 1 girl and 2 boys and took all the puppies from that litter to many shows. They all became Junior Champions and 5 of them became Adult Champions in a very short time. It was a very successful litter.

But this was just the beginning…in a short time we imported another female from USA, one from Hungary again and had a very beautiful boy as a guest male. He became the father of our B and D newfoundland litters. Also in 2005, we bought a mioritic boy from De Curtea Veche kennel which was in our hometown. The breeder was our friend and Indy’s first trainer and handler.

The story goes on and on, and I am proud to say that nowadays Tender Ebony is the Best Newfoundland Kennel in Romania, we have produced many beautiful litters of Newfoundlands and several of Mioritics. In this moment we have 14 adult Newfoundlands and 3 adult Mioritics. In the past we had more Mioritics, but we decided to focus more on the Newfoundlands now. Tender Ebony has exported many puppies in countries like : USA, Canada, Austria, Italy, Argentina, Germany, Spain, Finland, Bulgary, Greece, Poland, Czech Republik, India, Ukraine etc. and most of our inquiries come from abroad, because we breed beautiful and healthy dogs from some of the best bloodlines worldwide.
