September 14th

Yesterday was the NCDH Clubshow. Martine stayed at home with All Stars who's sick. A little weird because Leonieke never showed Dazzle before and it's already 7,5 years ago she showed Masai. But the dogs did amazing! We're really proud they all got an "excellent" because the judge wasn't generous with it.

Dazzle (Multi.Ch. Handsome Harley Dalmoor Manor) was 1Exc. VCAC in veteran class dogs and became BOS Veteran. 

Koh I Noor (Multi.Ch. Handsome Friends Adamas Koh I Noor) was 4Exc. in champion class bitches.

Masai (Multi.Ch. First Forest Forever Friends) got 2Exc. in veteran class bitches.

Today is a very special day; our sweet boy Dazzle (Multi.Ch. Handsome Harley Dalmoor Manor) is having his 13th Birthday! It's an old boy, but still very fitt for his age. He's doing so well, joins us every morning on a walk for a hour and most afternoons he also love to walk. 

Dazzle had a lovely Birthday, he enjoyed every minute of it!

We went to the Kynospirit clubshow with Masai (Multi.Ch. First Forest Forever Friends) and Joy (Handsome Friends Brazilian Battle). It's a nice show for exterior and also handling.

We added a lot of news to our Dutch newspage the last few months but neglected the English page a bit. Sorry for that! So here's a big update!

March 21rst

We organised a Handsome Friends Family day. We created a play ground with some agility for the dogs, there was a playground with a lot of games and we booked two workshops body awareness for all the "puppies" and family. Everyone enjoyed the lovely Handsome Friends cake and the nice lunch. At the end of the day all dogs got a great goodie bag. It was so great to see everyone again, we had a lovely time together!

March 30th

At the International show in Luxembourg Koh I Noor (Ch.Handsome Friends Adamas Koh I Noor) won champion class bitches with CACL and became Luxembourgs Champion. She also took CACIB and finished her International Championship! The jugde was Mrs. Manola Pogessi (It) and there were 49 dalmatians inscribed.

April 7th

We went for a weekend to the International show in Goes with All Stars (Handsome Friends Bo Darya-Ye Noor). The first day Mr. Sanders (NL) gave him VG and the second day Mrs. M. O'Gorman (IE) gave him only a G. The reason of these qualifications was he was unsettled in the ring. All Stars had trauma at the age of 10 weeks in the ring of honour at a local show to practice. At ringcraft he's doing really well again so hopefully he will get his confidence back soon in the showring. Both days he got a really nice judge report. For the rest he behaved so well at the show, in the hotel, at the beach and the restaurant. He made a lot of new friends and shared his hotelroom with Italian greyhounds Nova and Duca.

April 30th

All Stars invited his brother Noah (Handsome Friends Bold to the Bone) for a trip to the swimming pool for dogs. Noah looked very cool in his mom's rescue vest. The boys had a lot of fun and did really well. After that Noah and his mommy's visit us for cup of coffee. It was such a great day!

May 11th

We had a very successful day at the International show in Dortmund (D). The judge for the bitches was Dhr. Coppens (NL) and 90 Dalmatians were subscribed.

Masai (Multi.Ch. First Forest Forever Friends) won a very big and strong veteran class with VCAC VDH and VCAC Club and became Europaveteransieger '15! She also beat the veteran male and became Best Of Breed veteran. In the ring of honour she was selected in a big group. 

Koh I Noor (Ch. Handsome Friends Adamas Koh I Noor became 2nd with CAC VDH and RCAC Club which made her German Champion! So she finished three championship titles in only two shows! 

Both girls had a lovely judge report. We're so proud of them!

May 26th

Since a few weeks Joy (Handsome Friends Brazilian Battle) joins us at ringcraft sometimes. He's still very cheerful and jumpy but makes a lot of progress every lesson. 

He and his owners also come along with us a few times a month at our daily walk. The brothers can't stop playing and running together. Also Koh I Noor loves to hang around with her boys. Dazzle and Masai likes the attention a lot and the cookies they bring every time.  It's such a lovely sight the "whole" family all together and pleasure for everyone! 

We've made a nice walk in Hooghalen. Click here for the photos.

May 30th

Our dogs were invited to a swim (rescue) workshop organised by Dogsplash, the swimming pool for dogs. Sadly the weather was too cold for our old boy Dazzle and the girls don't like cold water. So we took our brave boy All Stars. While waiting for his turn he played with some other dogs. In the water he didn't understand immediately the meaning of the exercise so they had to lift him up in the water. After that he did so great and even swam to the boat and retrieved a lifebuoy and wetsuit! We're so proud of him, good boy! Click her for the photos.

June 1rst

January 12th

We went with Joy and All Stars to the DIN-fonds New years walk on the beach in Kijkduin. There were 80 Dalmatians. It was a long drive, but the boys behaved very well together in the car. They ran and played a lot on the beach with all the other Dalmatians but especially with each other. After our walk we drank coffee in a very small and cozy restaurant with lots of other dogs. The brothers did so well, we're very proud of them. Thanks to the owners of Joy for the carpooling!

January 4th

Normally Dazzle is allowed to take one "swimming friend" to the pool, but this time we took all the dogs with us. We all had a lovely time. Dazzle already can swim really well with the stream on. Good old boy! Also Masai, Koh I Noor and All Stars swam great!

January 3rd

December 23rd we visited Noah (Handsome Friends Bold to the Bone). All Stars was allowed to join us. We've had a really nice walk and the brothers played so nice together. Myrthe and Willeke thank you so much for your hospitality. 

Joy (Handsome Friends Brazilian Battle) and All Stars passed their Buddy Basis Plus course so we went for a walk so they finally could play together and not have to stay on the leash. The boys had so much fun! On the way we drank hot chocolate. It was a great afternoon, thanks to Saskia, Alain, Marit and Anna.
