Vivo is an impres­sive stud male, he is tall and proud. His fleece has a lux­u­ri­ous touch, it is fine, even and shiny, with a good length. Excel­lent prop­er­ties for a Suri fleece. He has a huge fleece growth, which impress­es every year. His physique is per­fect, as is his head shape and bit.

His lin­eage includes the who-is-who of New Zealand genet­ics. His sire, Suri­co Alinghi, is a sire of great impor­tance in the Suri­co blood­lines, who con­sis­tent­ly passed on fine fleeces to his off­spring. Vivo’s father was bred from two notable par­ents, Kai­here Accoyo Bril­liante and Som­er­set Silken Amy, both of which have had a major impact on Suri­co breed­ing. His moth­er Suri­co Diva has pro­duced some valu­able off­spring over the years. Her moth­er was Dawn, a “seed stock mare” at Suri­co. Her father is Par­si­fal, this com­bi­na­tion con­tains some of the best Suri genet­ics. These par­ents also pro­duced Suri­co Nova, who won the Supreme Cham­pi­on Suri Fleece at the 2013 Inter­na­tion­al Fleece Show in Hamil­ton, New Zealand.
