May 2016
What a difference a year makes.
After last year’s scandalous treatment I was reserved and set up for at the Game Fair, I decided that I would never
ever have anything to do with those people…Since then, I have had more time, for other more important “things” than dragging my dogs around dogs shows, and driving all over creation to do working tests, for the promotion of a dying breed in its home country. My name is generally cited as not being a member of the club anymore, and I must admit, I am rather proud of it. I don’t need them as they never did anything for the breed..and what I have accomplished has been without them.
My honey…Barbet
Haley’s babies
The stupid things you hear sometimes…
The Barbet needs to have hair over the eyes, so he cannot see…in order to protect him from the reeds in water ( I guess they jump out at him?!) and also to protect him from thorns…I never knew there were thorns in water. Working on my learning curve…
As you see..they don’t need to have their eyes covered to protect them, but their body.Perhaps some overalls ought to do it…for a rustic dog…?The things you hear sometimes, do make you wonder.
Baltic champion, too!
A day to learn about first aid for dogs.
Froguette is not hurt, we were just training to see what I remembered to do, in case of emergency.Tail injury and below a paw bandaged up.Now, will I be able to do it in a real emergency? I strongly recommend everyone to do the training. You really never know when it may be a question of life or death. Day training was really really interesting and Something I had always wanted to do. So, DONE!
