The Dutch Gundog Show is traditionally every other year and used to take place at a castle location with lists of “hunting” atmosphere. This year the show was unfortunately held elsewhere and it sadly took out some of its he characteristic spirit of the show. Nevertheless team Flatastic showed in full style and our dogsContinue reading “Gundog Show 2024”

Thursday morning my husband asked me to take care of a “rear” situation. Rumi had some loose stool..as she was smelly to start with she got a nice clean bath with shampoo too which she was deeply offended of course. I normally do not wash my dogs – only in cases like this when theyContinue reading “Shit happens”
