Last week, Cinna’s sired puppies with Polish import Asta (owned by Paula Ballak of Biscay Water Dogs) went to their new homes. I believe four went to American families, and three went to Canadian families. Lia, puppy of Cinna and Xela, Cinna, and Stacy of Gingko de Barbet (americanbarbet.com) went north to say au revoir to the pups. What ensued was a couple puppy photo shoots, a barbet backyard party, and lots of puppy kisses.

Last wednesday, July 8th, 2009, Joanne, owner of Finley from Paula, Ronette and Martin Rakovitch with Tucker (Lia’s brother), and Ula of The Friendly Barbet with Madzia, another Paula puppy and Finley’s little sister, and Churmnick, a Polish import, gathered in Paula’s back yard for a barbet backyard party. There were around 16 barbet in all running, jumping, sniffing, and digging in the horseshoe pit.

Here are some photos of the good times.
