For over 40 years, we have been actively involved showing our dogs in conformation and obedience. We cannot recall a time not living with a dog, our dogs live in the house with us and always have.  Our goal in breeding is to maintain the delightful qualities of the Barbet and also to diversify their genetic makeup.  To that end, we have imported our newest stud dog, NBISS AmGCHB CanGCH Bandi Lackie Splendorki from Poland.  He is truly a gift and has already produced one champion and several pointed puppies.  Our daughter is a critical care veterinarian and now proud owner of Flora's offspring, Molly and her offspring, Mac.  We raise litters very infrequently and maintain a long-term relationship with our extended puppy families. We  believe in giving back to the community, to that end, our special girl, Envee, is now a certified therapy dog and participates in "Read To The Dogs" at our local libraries.
