Through all the commotion of the past week, everything is a bit faded into the background.
All the puppies from the litter of Jonka & Gigolo, born on 4 March 2012 in kennel Entijo's in Germany already went to their new homes except little Tani.
She stays with Mamma Jonka and aunt Enny.

Entijo's Brown Tani (Tani)
We wish all 11 puppies a lot of happiness and a healthy and beautiful future with their new family.

Many of you are aware of what happened on Sunday, May 6 at the BFRC clubshow ...
Stefaans wrist was still hurting badly and very swollen, so he went again today for a consultation at the doctor.
Unfortunately, new X-rays have shown that his hand is broken ...
Unfortunately we won't be able to do many of our planned activities such as shows, working tests, huntingtraining, etc....

thank you for your support
