If everything goes like Annerose and I are hoping, there will be a new family member end of this year: HIGH PROVOCATION von Shinbashi aka Hippie. She is a granddaughter of Keanu (Multi-Champ. Whisperingln' THE DEVILS ADVOCATE) and Ula (Multi-Champ. Family Song's ULA); a niece of Maverick (Multi-Champ. Caipirinha's NEED 4SPEED).
All fingers crossed that for the export everything goes well in South Africa, and that we can welcome her here before Christmas 2017.

Today a litter which is very special fot me celebrates birthday: the N litter is 6 years. The first European litter after Keanu (Multi-Champ.

Two of the four offspring have been very successful in the show ring, and finished championships at young age, Maverick (Multi-Champ. Caipirinha's NEED 4SPEED) was the first own bred Champion in this home. Needy (Caipirinha's NEEDLESS 2SAY) inherits excellently in the kennel von Shinbashi.
The most heartfelt birthday congratulations to Needy in South Africa, Tanner (Caipirinha's NUTBUSH CITY LIMIT) in Canada, Toulouse (Caipirinha's NOTHING 2LOSE) in Germany and Maverick here. For all I wish many, many healthy years and a continuging great life at their owners.

It was about time for a "makeover" of the car. So, I was working on a design during the past weeks, and I found a great friend who printed it and installed it today. I think at the moment this is unique. Here the result
I'm totally thrilled and proud that this could be done with my own photos. Thanks a lot to Hati from Grafik Hati

Nothing but memories: today would be the birthday of Arwa Z. (ARWA Zevar CS, SchH 1), dam of the first Briard litter in this kennel. And she, too - like all the others which have already gone - is forever unforgotten. The candlelight shall show her on the other side of the Rainbow Bridge that she in my thoughts.
April 14, 2017:
She waited for me to come home from my USA trip to help her get on her last journey on the same day: Oh-Lala (Sel. OH-LALA des Monts d'en Crauzille), January 23,1998 - April 14, 2010. Still so very much missed, forever unforgotten ......

It is 4 years ago that Sambo (SAMBO de la Chaume du Bois Dieu) - only a few days after his 12th birthday - went over the Rainbow Bridge.
It still hurts that he only had nearly a year to enjoy his life the way he should have deserved from beginning on. Still I cannot understand that there are people who take an animal just to let it veg out ...... without care, without suitable sleeping place, without love, ...... just feeding and serving water. A candle has been lit for this loveable boy.

Today it is 15 years ago that the G litter de la Maison du Garde-Barrière was born. The thoughts are with these six offspring and their parents. And it is 16 years ago that Sambo (SAMBO de la Chaume du Bois Dieu) was born. Also he is in the thoughts, and a candle has been lit for all of these dogs.
