I was born January 06 1970 in Uruguay, my parents already breeding dogs at that time.

In the year 1974 my parents move to live in Argentina and they commit themselves to the breeding of Harlequin Great Danes under the affix Von Norwalfer, breeding the Top winning Harlequin Great Dane of all time and winner of the 1993 World Dog Show Am. Ch. Gr. Ch. Arg.World Ch. Eddie Tato Von Norwalfer, also being the first Great Dane bred in Argentina to complete its American Championship.

When I was 12 years old I started to show my parents' dogs at specialty shows. When I was 14 years old I went to my first all breed show, with dogs of my clients in other breeds. In the beginning of 1989 Harrowill's Kennel is registered within the F.C.A. under the number 7307, where I started to breed Beagles, and later bred the first World Ch. 93 Gr. Ch. Arg. Lat. Int. Harrowill's Alien, as well as several other champions and grand champions in this breed. I also have bred Harlequin Great Danes, Rottweilers, Fox Terrier Smooth and Keeshond. During the year 2003 I did not breed any litters;working only as a professional handler.

In the year 2004 my wife Andrea joins me; she comes from a show dog family herself; as her mother, Marta Actis, has been involved with the Boxer breed for over 30 years. Since that moment Andrea quit her profession as a surgical instrumentist,to fully commit herself with me to show the dogs of our clients, at all breed shows and specialty shows, and in the year 2006 we decided to form BACKBONE KENNEL  

We also wish to mention our daughters Maria Fernanda and Maria Emilia, who, in one way or the other, share our passion with us.

Thank you to visit our place, we hope it is of their pleasure
