Myrna Shiboleth (Shaar Hagai, Israel) is recognised as the Worlds most foremost authority in the world on Canaan Dogs, so when she came over to judge Canaan Dogs at Darlington Championship Show on 16th December 2011, of course I had to enter Rene (Babrees French Resistance). Myrna attacted an excellent entry of 22 dogs, which [...]

Boy have we had a bad weekend. Last Thursday Frenchie took ill with being sick.  We carefully watched her during the day and she did seem a bit quieter than usual. Anyway, come Friday morning she had extremely bad sickness and diarrhoea, so we rushed her down to the vets for a checkup. Our vet, [...]

We have a visitor at the moment, Chefa, or Chefa de Solemel as is her official name.  She is the sweetest of bitches and has come to wed her husband, Cane.  I took these photographs of her this morning while out for our early morning stroll.  As you can probably see, we had a very [...]

It is with a very heavy heart that I have to write that our dearest Benji (Babrees Benjamin D’Israeli) was put to sleep today to save further suffering. Benji was such a true gentleman. We didn’t show him much because as an adult he hated showing, but those time we did he usually did very [...]

Canaan Dogs are full of character, and our Frenchie is no exception. Our Canaan Dogs are in kennels (when they are not running free in our paddocks), and we open their hatches to let them out at about 8am. Now the weather is improving and the sun is shining first thing in the mornings, Frenchie [...]

Well I thought it about time that I gave our website a bit of a facelift – I hope you like it! Pages have moved around, so if you have bookmarked something in the past, please redo your bookmark. The colour scheme I chosed seemed to be appropriate for a dog that originates from the [...]

Today was a very sad day for us. We had to make the hard decision to call Nigel, our vet, out to send Tessa over the Rainbow Bridge to save her from any further suffering. Tessa has now been laid to rest in our orchard, near her grandmother, Evie. This decision never gets any easier, [...]
