About us

Welcome on our homepage. First of all I would like to tell you a little about us, so you know whom your dealing with, and to draw you a picture about what's important to us. 
Cor and I were looking for houses as we met the Briard. We were like many of you very charmed about his looks and the way he acted. As we found a nice house, our first Briard was already ordert by a Dutch breeder. Jinx, our eldest Briard female we took home in Feruary '95, and because she was so wonderful in all of her being, it didn't take much time to get addicted. 
We've decided that we wanted another female, and on 31 December '96 we took Medeia home. Both ladies accepted the other one real quick and they are friends ever sins. 
With Medi we did several shows, and we found out that we liked doing it so much that it became our new hobby. There came a time that Medi's breeder asked us if we didn't want to breed with her. And that is how it all got started. We uphold the rules from the Dutch Briardclub, as a good breeder does, and we were carefully looking for the right stud. We found him, and after a short but stormy romance Medi gave birth to 13 beautiful and healthy puppies in September '99.
We, mother Medi and Aunt Jinx chose one lady to stay with us. She, Pichinca (nickname "Chica") is a real lightning, full with energy. It is never  dull around the house, and she drives both adult sophisticated ladies crazy. Around that time we started to wonder if it was maybe better to move to a bigger house with more room for the dogs to play. Although our neighbors have never complained, we had the opinion that it was better to avoid it. 
In mai 2000 we've found a farmhouse just across the Belgium border, and we've moved with our precious cargo (our dogs) from Holland to Belgium. In March we took home a little male puppy, his name is Zhivago, and with him it makes our family complete.
Although it isn't necessary, we will keep breeding within the Dutch Briardclub recommandations.     

Everyone that loves Briards, or wants information is welcome in our home at any given time.
         Just a phonecall  will be enough and the coffee will await you when you arrive.
