We are very happy to welcome the Australian bred Field Spaniel male "Longbourn D'Artagnan" to Scandinavia.

In a joint project with Therese Svensson, Kennel "Purpledreams", Sweden and Natalie Draa, Kennel "du Pech de la Ginestelle", France, we brought him for a few months to Scandinavia. Thank you, Natalie, for you kindness and generosity to let us have him here. 

 

During that time he will stay with Therese Svensson. Therese will also show him in different Scandinavian countries. We brought him here mainly for breeding purpose as his pedigree offers different blood lines. D'Artagan has been bred in Australia by Cheryl and Dustin Webster, Kennel "Longbourn". As all breeds the Fields go back to the same dogs, but his pedigree is very diverse from the pedigrees we have here. At least, when I look at the last 10 generations. I am planning to use him for my next litter here at Kennel "Vom Belauer See". 

I am very excited about this adventure in breeding! It's great to work together as breeders. It's the way to bring a breed forward. 

Underneath, you can also find the 5 generation pedigree of D'Artagnan.

Today, a preciouis girl, I have bred and co-owned for a longer time, left this earth:

 

Jolanthe vom Belauer See”  (Sanque’s Dreamchaser x Desperados Charlotta At Belauer See)

 

I am so sorry to hear about her death, and I am sure her owners are very sad about their great loss.

 

Jolanthe or Zelda as her pet name was, followed her mother, which died in October at the age of 13 ½ years way too early. Zelda was only ten years old.

Jolanthe was very successful in all paths of life. She was a great Show dog and has been certainly for many years one of the only two English Springer Spaniels, who held both titles C.I.E. and C.I.B. in Germany. The other one was her half-brother, Ludwig vom Belauer See.  Jolanthe has been successful in Dummy work and Rally Obedience. She even became a movie star and at an advanced age she became a hunting dog and was successful at many hunting trials. Jolanthe was truly an exceptional English Springer Spaniel. Certainly, also due to the fact, that she had a home, where dog sports is a priority.

 

Jolanthe is the mother of the O-litter at my Kennel. I remember the mating trip with her to North Yorkshire to Kennel Calvdale. I am glad, I picked  “Calvdale Keelman”, a male I had always liked very much, for her. Out of this combination I got a beautiful litter. The owners of the puppies from the O-litter were all very happy with them and I was lucky to also breed the grand children of Jolanthe with the X-litter here at my Kennel. Jolanthe will continue to live in her offspring.

 

 

Goodbye, precious girl!

 

The photos show her as a puppy around 7 weeks old, during the mating trip to North Yorkshire and with her puppies. I remember, how difficult it was to take the photo together with her older puppies. She was not really amused, as you can see! (Photos: Ulf F. Baumann)

A few days ago I had a wonderful surprise in the mail. 

 

The Co-owner of our "Prince Arthur vom Belauer See At Nadavin" had finally gotten the Certificates of his Champion title for me. I am quite proud, that a dog I have bred is so successful in the country of origin and has been several years Top Stud Dog in the United Kingdom as well.

I still owe my readers and puppy buyers a story about the last remaining puppy of our "Tennesssee litter". 

Just after Christmas I had the pleasure to bring "Vom Belauer See Tennessee Iris" to her new home in the United States. 

Who knows me a while is aware, that I love to be in the States as I lived myself a while overthere. I always feel at home coming back.

 

This time my travels lead me first to Woodstock, NY. I flew from Frankfurt to JFK, the only suitable option this time to travel with a dog. Iris stayed longer than 6 months with us due to the changes the US government had implemented. Dogs entering the US need to be now at least 6 months of age plus all the rules for health and vaccination. This is not for the benefits of the breeders, who like to import a dog from abroad.

 

It also takes a lot of effort to raise and socialize a young puppy. But in the end it is so nice, when the new owner is very happy. This time I was able to make Lee Hildebrand (Kennel Wawayanda) happy about a new puppy. 

 

Lee picked me up at the airport and drove to Tina Bromberg's house in Woodstock. It is a bit closer to New York than Lee's home. 

 

We had a great evening together and lots of chats and fun. The dogs of Tina met Iris and Iris started to enjoy her new life abroad... 

 

I hope, that Iris will contribute to the breed in the US. I think, she has the potential to do so. To be honest, if Lee wouldn't have taken her for whatever reason, Iris would have stayed. She had so nicely developed the last few months.

After the short stay in Woodstock and handing over Iris to her new happy owner I spent a few days in the Upper Hudson Valley about one hour North of the Big Apple. I had booked a nice Suite and did a bit of Shopping and browsing Antique Stores. 

 

One evening I had the pleasure to meet with my Field Spaniel friends Sarah Stebbins (Kennel Northaven) and Lori Carver (Kennel Seabreeze) for dinner. I know Sally since a number of years and have visited her and her husband at their beautiful home in Connecticut many years ago. It was a pleasure to meet again and chat about Fields and life in the States and Denmark. 

 

One day I drove to Manhattan as I wanted to see the big Christmas tree at Rockefeller Center. 

Well, those few days were over in a blink of an eye and I needed to return back home. After the flight and early arrival at Frankfurt airport I drove home to Denmark. 

Looking forward to coming back again! Maybe delivering another puppy to his new home in the States one day...

I am in many Spaniel Clubs around the world a member. You can see them on the front page of this website. 

This year I decided to run for the first time an ad in the Year Book of the Southern English Springer Spaniel Society of England. I think, this Year Book is also a good tool of communication, what is going on the scene. 

My ad is designed by Deborah Stone, a Field Spaniel breeder friend from England. I think, she is really good with her designs. This is not the one I will publish in the Year Book. I wanted to get out another one before the publication of the Year Book.
