Talk about conicidences... the 5th of September is the birthday of many special dogs... Both our H LITTER and the Le Sphinx K LITTER (basically Lennox and his littermates) celebrate!

Passed a lovely week-end with the Celtic Reenactment Association AES TORKOI at the Celtic Festival " I FOUCHI DI TARANIS " (1-3/7/2011). Well, it surely was quite a difference compared to my usual dog show week-end... the campfire, tents, weapons, costumes... and though this was my first time, the group made me feel completely at ease, including me in the whole aspect of the celtic daily life... THANK YOU!! A few pictures will follow, just to give you an idea of what being a celt meant Andre and Ale Ale by the campfire: Ale and Elisa Elisa and Stefano lunchtime!
