Orlea was the first Male Pyrenean Mountain Dog in Australia to be awarded the title of Australian Grand Champion. Orlea was only second to his half sister Aust Grand Champion Barreges Angelique.
Orlea is still the only male Pyrenean Mountain Dog in Australia to have achieved this title. Orlea had numerous Res CC's, CC's, RUIB and BOB's at Royals. Orlea was graded Excellent by French Judge Mr J Menard-Ringuet in November 2005. Orlea was just over 9 years old when he won this accolade along with the Royal Melbourne 2005 BOB.

Orlea was a truly beautiful, soul and he shared his life with not only his family and friends, but, all he met were touched by his gentle loving nature.

A great loss was felt by all when Orlea very suddenly left us. He has left a huge hole in our hearts but the memories are priceless.

Orlea was an outstanding Pyrenean with Great size, substance and a fantastic temperament. To really honour Orlea please see Mr J Menard-Ringuet's critique:

"Superb stallion, Excellent type with complete dentition, An excellent Pyrenean expression, Excellent head and skull, Excellent skeletal structure, Excellent shoulder and feet, Braced back, Excellent chest in the 3 dimensions, Excellent coat, Correct gait, I wish a tail bearing compatible with the breed: held up (Arrundera)".
