CARIOCA WAS RESCUED BY RMK FROM A PEDDLER NAME MAX, WHO BOUGHT HER FROM THE LEGENDARY BRAZILIAN-ITALIAN DOGMAN MR. ANTONIO SCHAMBRE, UNDER THE CARE OF MR. SCHAMBRE CARIOCA PROVED HERSELF OVER SOME OF THE BEST OF HER TIMES!
ONCE MR.SCHAMBRE SOLD HER TO MAX WHOS FOR LACK OF UNDERSTANDING OF A BULLDOG, NEGLECTED HER FOR OVER A YEAR, UNTIL RMK BOUGHT HER FROM HIM. SHE WAS ANEMIC UNDERWEIGHT AND IN VERY POOR CONDITION. AFTER MONTHS OF INTENSE CARE DEWORMING, VITAMINS, GOOD FOOD AND SOCIALIZATION, SHE RECOVERED 100% FROM HER ROUGH DAYS AT MAX YARD.
UNDER RMK\'S CARE SHE WAS LOOKED THROUGH AND SHE DEMONSTRATED A PHENOMENAL MOUTH AND EXTREME ABILITY. DURING THESE TIMES SHE WAS BRED TO SOME OF THE BEST STUD DOGS OF BRAZIL TO SAY LOCCOS CH. BAD DOG AND LOCCOS AND PATRICK T-BONE ROM.
ONCE RMK STARTED TO IMPORT CHINAMAN DOGS FROM MR.TG, THE PLAN WAS TO BREED HER TO TO THE INCREDIBLE CHINAMAN/SPIKE BLOOD FROM THE LATE NINETIES UNFORTUNATELY 2 BREEDINGS WERE MADE OF A DIRECT SON OF FRISCO AND VALERIE, HOWEVER CARIOCA WHO WAS KNOWN FOR HER GIGANTIC LITTERS OF UP TO 18 PUPPS AT ONCE! DIDNT STICK, MONTHS AFTER THE SECOND MISS, CARIOCA DIED OF A HEART ATTACK AT 9 YEARS OLD. SHE WAS A GREAT COMPANION AND THE BEST MOTHER A PUP COULD ASK FOR. SHE WILL BE FOREVER MISSED AND REMEMBERED IN OUR HEARTS.
THAT IS NOT MUCH LEFT OF HER BLOOD.
SHE WAS BRED TWICE TO GAME STOCK FROM IT SHE PRODUCED SOME FAMOUS WINNERS IN BRAZILIAN HISTORY TO SAY : RMK & FORTES INDIA, RMK & SWATCHS HITTLER AND RMK & SWATCHS GRAVATA BIS
