As some of you may know, I am getting my sites re-organized. Lots of work due to lots of information, but necessary to do.
A bit like "wiki-leeks", (spelt wrong, I know). I had to prove the info existed and that there is lots more, when you open your eyes and look for it.
The point here is that after 5 years of "sharing" truths and facts with you, I think a majority of people have got the message about what a Barbet/French Water Dog, is and has been historically: an old French
rustic long-coated, not overgroomed-hunting breed, who swims fabulously well and is a wonderful companion and that those who still don't understand, never will. The Barbet is a special breed who deserves special care, tender loving care from people who love the breed. The French breed is still hanging by a thread as it has been since the 1940's when it became almost extinct.BUT it's hanging in there(the U-Barbochos litter being the
purest Barbets in existence)and that we are protecting their existence where they are, meaning the 2 males are reproducing.
It now time to move on. The dogs are starting to speak for themselves.
That's called survival.......

A bit of humour...check out the other photos on the site!
