A Coccolina legacy: 15 years of selection under one roof.
I make my dogs with the old breed in mind, only. I do not place dogs to use them later. I work with my breeding stock. That is a Coccolina legacy. When it is over, well..it will be over.
Say when…I want to play in the snow!
Something more positive, in a way…. 3 generations of males!

Bird watching…
If you look closely, there are many birds enjoying their meal in the forthytia tree. They are not at all bothered by the dogs who respect them. A bird dog does not chase or pose a threat to birds..

Ageing dogs and their loving people
It is quite obvious that growing old together is the best possible situation. When in 2007, I was contacted by a couple of “older” people..It never even occurred to me that they should/could not have a dog. I since then, found out that there ARE breeders around who refuse to sell people beyond a certain age..I am hallucinating., I thought.
Well, I was not…That is pure discrimination.

It is obvious certain dispositions should be taken so the dog does not end up in a pound or some other horrible issue. When that is arranged up front, then all is settled and you enjoy each other.
Mom and Dad Birthday wishes!
Mamma Cocccolina ( Ermengarda>> 14 years and 10 months) and GuyGuy ( 13.6 ) wish their D- litter from 2008 a very happy birthday! I hope to hear from a few of the others..they are spread out over the world!
