Pregnancy news

It will be 4 weeks on Friday so we will be having Hallie scanned at the vets, the signs are good as she is very hungry and very tired.
On Sunday she had a photoshoot locally and she didn't join in the fun and games with Martha and Pi, these are all positive signs so I hope to be posting on Friday night the results.

Hallie and Cooper Barbet love

Well we travelled 1200 miles ( 2000Km) in 36 hours and luckily Hallie fell in love with a very nice looking boy :) I will post a few more photos but think I am still recovering. 

Mating plans for Barbet Hallie

Well folks, we are off tomorrow to Germany on a mission to mate Hallie with the rather splendid Cooper. All being well I will be flooding the blog with x rated photos!
Pi is coming with us for her first trip to France, she has never done a road trip so to her the car just means the forest or vets so it will do her good to spend at least 8 hours in the boot.
I am very excited at the prospect of meeting new Barbet owners and after a year of thinking about Cooper, finally meeting him.
I will update as soon as I have more news or if I get a connection it might be worth looking at Novaforesta Barbets on facebook if I can work my phone out..

Charamese Hermione

Hallie is in season, so my pace of life has just gone up another notch and we are busy getting organised.
This will be a 'J' litter, so we should have fun choosing some suitable names.
More news as it happens as we are blood testing today.
 

Netis Jitterbug aka Pi

Pi has started dog training and as expected is a little star.She is going to her first dog show in November in Calais so will be having her rabies shot soon to enable her to travel.  

Happy Birthday Martha my dear

The sweetest girl was 2 years old this week, dear Martha who has to put up with so much now that Pi has joined us.

Martha has the shooting season to look forward to, then she will become a Mother in the Spring if all our plans work out.

A good mating for us in the UK, 0/0 inbreeding over 4 generation and only 2.64% over 5 generations.

Hurry up Hallie, I want puppy time again :)
