We really are "gobsmacked" by this boy, purchased from Bev and Jason Brehm of Rogue Suri Alpacas!
Coppola has had a terrific show career, earning 4 championships (both halter and Walking Fleece) at level 4 or higher shows, plus his first RC at the Alpaca Breeders' Invitational, and beating out his "old man" (Nico) for Color Champion at the 2017 California Classic!
Now that he is shorn, I can really get my hands on his fleece---he has incredibly buttery ropey pitch-black locks that are d... |

From the respected PVA program, Fanfare is an AWE Champion and Futurity Blue Ribbon winner. She comes from strong black genetics on both sides. Fanfare is an impressive, elegant female with a ram-rod straight back and her sire's perfect head. Nice locking and density, and each of her offspring have had good to outstanding luster (even the huacaya "love child"!) and nice personalities. She is an excellent mother--textbook birthings, lots of milk, and a good maternal instinct.

We are LOVING this Balboa grandson, sired by RGSA Coppola. His dam, Balboa's Fanfare of PVA, is a champion out of the prestigious PVA program. His sire, RGSA Coppola, is a true black multi-champion and Futurity RC. So, Fredo comes from black genetics on both sides!
He's back from the shows, and the judges loved his style and conformation, awarding him a RC banner and 2 blue ribbons.
Amanda VandenBosch commented that he also got an award as the "best behaved alpaca in the ring". He really is a sweetheart, and adorable with his new haircut...
This is a stylish, "flashy" suri boy--lustrous moderately twisted locks and good density that he shows off as he cavorts through the barnyard and fields. Because of his copper-colored fleece, he is especially eye-catching! PERFECT, straight, balanced conformation and that lovely wedge-shaped "Balboa head" covered in bright copper curls. He is a medium-to dark fawn, but not a "fading fawn" on his blanket.
