Toffee's puppies 3,5 weeks old

Some of you know already the story of our struggle for Toffee's life. After the whelping everything seemed to be OK, Toffee had milk, started feeding the puppies and seemed to be bit tired but fine. Usually the bitch is "cleanig herself" few day after the whelp. But with Toffee the bleeding started. It was comming from the inside of her uterus. Four days after the whelping we had to ask the vet to come and make ultrasound - we thought there might be… Continue

Farewell to Rachel Page Elliott

Rachel Page Elliott, writer, researcher and world authority on dogs, has passed away in America at 96.

Having long crusaded in educating owners to the importance of recognising rights and wrongs in gait, Rachel had published, in 1973, "Dogsteps," which she also illustated along with Eva Andrade. This superb book on canine anatomy and movement was acknowledged a year later by the Dog Writers Association of America, as the Best Dog Book of the Year, and yet another year later, Rachel was… Continue

A wonderful Sunday for McBirdy.

We had to share the tasks this weekend. We were in front of a dilemma: to take part at the same time in the dog shows of Wieze in Belgium and Neukirchen in Germany. Finally, thanks to our dear friend Philippe Deram, it was decided: Fletcher and Heaton would be in Wieze, Frisbee and Gracelynn with Neukirchen. And it was a master stroke.

Heaton of McBirdy (and Annie Cheron its mistress) continue their training. Heaton is classified… Continue
