Fernanda Barlow was born in Brazil. The love for animals is in her blood as throught her childhood she constantly around animals. Her father, mother, sister and a couple of cousins are veterinarians. She grew up going regularly to farms, and later on, for a couple of years she worked in her mother's Animal Hospital.

 

Caramuru Kennel was established in 2006 when Vicki and Sarah Kennedy entrusted one of their puppies (Spit Fire - pictured left) to Fernanda Barlow. That little puppy stole her heart from day one, and driven by this love, she realized that she wanted to take her involvement with the Boston Terrier breed to a higher level. From that time on, she became more and more involved with the Kennedys.

Fernanda was already absolutely in love with the Boston Terrier breed, when in one of the dog shows they went to, her husband Roger met a French Bulldog and was awestruck at how gorgeous and sweet they were. Fernanda couldn't say no to her husband and before she knew, they were studying yet another big eared breed and planning their first special frenchie, which came in the shape of gorgeous Fergie.

Although she doesn't have a pushed-in face, bat ears and has a totally different look of the other dogs, Abbey is Fernanda's childhood dream of having a Bull Terrier and now officially a part of Caramuru kennel. Abbey is a very special girl not only for her exotic appearance, but for her sweetness and charisma .

Caramuru Kennels health tests their Boston Terriers and French Bulldogs for typical breed illnesses and breed flaws. Caramuru males are available for stud with approved bitches. Bitches must also have proof of health clearance. 

They seldom have  puppies, and only plan litters when it is believed that a particular breeding will yield something that they plan on keeping. From each litter born, they select the best picks to keep and all other puppies are placed as pets.

Caramuru puppies are placed in suitable homes and Fernanda remains 100% available to the new owners. Fernanda prides herself on the fact that her dogs live with her in her house and they are members of the family. They are very much loved by Fernanda, her husband and their two daughters.

Focusing on showing and developing champions, as well as quality companions, showing is Fernanda's hobby and her passion.
