BARBETS en BRESSE, France
Only if we understand can we care. Only if we care will we help. Only if we help shall they be saved. -Jane Goodall
GuyGuy, Coccolina and their daughter TiliTili ( Fasila Chanter) in the middle. This will never happen again, but it did once. I am very proud of this picture..once in a lifetime.Not just about 5 generations, but also a family.
My honey bunny Coccolina!
This really makes me angry. Let’s say some of us know the sitution of the Barbet ( Old and Moderne)..and some breeders sell anything to anyone who asks( remember you are saving a breed..!hum…), never mind anything, like background or history. Some people are very misled into thinking they have a gem.. THE best dog in the world…Well..now’s the time to look into this very sad issue. The dogs will be up for adoption at some point.
They won’t be charging the astronomic prices some change for a cross-breed..and these dogs deserve their socutesonice owner, too. Not everyone has a Barbet for shows/ ego trps or financial reasons ( making puppies and selling them socutesonice). Some just want a nice dog from a real good breeder. That is quite obviously becoming too, more difficult since we have more puppy farms and overbreeding..
pfffffffffffffffft. And some wonder why I get so angry?
Coccolina and GuyGuy enjoying the cooler morning air!
I enjoy showing adult dogs of the Vieux Barbet type. Deetha is a daughter of Ulysse di Barbochos Reiau de Prouvenco ( U- litter of pure bred Barbets) and Nancy Sinatra from my 2017 litter. A 5th generation litter which is very rare in the Barbet world… and will become rare-r. Sadly so.
Happy birthday to his siblings around the world!
GuyGuy..13 ++ and Coccolina 14.5..Life is good to us!
