NURBAY is one of two puppies sired by our FLEX out of Russian dam BAYA and at the beginning he belonged to our dear friend Vladimir Karpushin („Kavkazskoy Natsionalnosti” kennels). NURBAY has been picked to stay at Vladimir’s as a future stud; second pup, his brother and just as gorgeous NURBEK went to live with us and to become one of our most memorable and beloved dogs – as well our most anticipated breeding prospect.  Sadly he became too our greatest heartbreak when we’ve lost him all too soon, suddenly and tragically. Sympathetic to our loss Vladimir generously offered to loan us NURBAY as a stud for one year – and immediately after that we’ve totally fell in love with NURBAY ! Seeing that Vladimir decided not to split an obviously happy family when loan’s term expired and agreed to permanently share with us NURBAY’s ownership. We were most grateful for his thoughtful gesture only a true friend and conscientious breeder can afford. Just as much we were relieved that our breeding program will continue to advance in breeding only the finest lines and further defining our trademark phenotype.
In this aspect NURBAY is truly an epitome of our targeted conformation. He is of moderate size with massive, sculpted head - his level skull and broad, deep muzzle giving that desirable bear-like appearance so distinct for the breed. NURBAY’s entire physique is an embodiment of strength and power - he has exceptionally developed trunk with remarkably deep and broad chest, perfect angulations and stance - all resulting in strikingly efficient and smooth limb action.
NURBAY’s disposition seems to be mirroring his masculine looks -  dominating to the point of aggressiveness he can be a real and serious threat  to any trespasser, yet being very gentle, affectionate and totally devoted to his loved ones. NURBAY with top marks passed all disposition trial tests as well as working dog trials. He proved himself in practice as guard and watchdog at „Kavkazskoy Natsionalnosti” and „MSHA im. TIMIRYAZEVA” kennels - his fearless defence against attempted break-in even brought him fame in Russian media. Being such a great working dog and family companion, NURBAY proved himself as well as a stud faithfully passing all his best traits to his offspring – his puppies just beginning to be seen at shows are bringing home most prestigious wins already.
NURBAY’s astonishing show dog career started in Russia early and is continuing. As a matter of fact he is one of the most beautiful dogs we’ve ever encountered or owned. He has precisely the type we’ve set our heart early on and will certainly cultivate in our breeding program.
