  • A Barbet Is a Barbet Is a Barbet

    A Barbet Is a Barbet Is a Barbet

    A Barbet is a Barbet is a Barbet FCI/SCC standard: 105 (21.02.2006) The Barbet is qualified by the Société Central Canine as a rare French breed due to the fact that there are less than 50 births per year in France. It has never been a widespread breed. However there are many Barbet -type dogs in France. It is a major contributor to the French canine patrimony due to the amount of breeds that contain Barbet blood in their veins. The Barbet is known as the specialist in retrieving fowl in thick reed and swimming in extreme temperatures. It is the canis aviarius aquaticus par excellence. It has natural retrieving instinct. The Barbet was named in France for the first time by Jacques du Fouilloux in the 16th century. It is qualified as a very “undistinguished” and rustic dog. The Barbet is THE French Water Dog and part of the bigger family of water dogs, of the SCC ( Société Central Canine) 8th group, which includes the Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch water dogs and several water Spaniels. However, it is not a Spaniel. France is the only country where the water dog has an official name: “BARBET’. The water dogs that exist in other countries do not bear that particular name for their breed. The 8th group does not include the Hungarian water dog, or Puli, considered a shepherd. A second name for the Barbet was: Griffon d’arrêt à Poil Laineux (wooly-haired pointer) or Griffon Boulet, now extinct, which ressembled the Barbet. It only existed in brown.

    The French Water Dog – Barbet – a Breed That Is Rarely Seen in the Dog World

    [Article published on www.barbetkoi.se, January 23, 2015] Every now and then questions arrives about my experiences with Barbet Koi. Interested in issues related to, buying a puppy or which breeder to choose etc. All Questions are very important and show not only in an interest but also in healthy responsibility that should be encouraged. There are no stupid questions and all questions seek an answer even those that can not be an- swered. All questions I can’t answer but trying with my best ability to explain why it can’t be answered. /Eva Olsson Question from a reader: Barbet – something for us? Hi Eva! What a nice site and wonderful pictures of you fine Koi! Thought to take this op- portunity to ask a little bit more about the breed. We are a big family with child- ren who have long wanted a dog. Only now is it possible for us to receive a dog in the best way. We are choosing between a Softi and a Barbet. I stumbled across an ad on Barbets and immediately fell for their appearance and description! But there will always be questions when reading around various sites. What is your opinion of the suitability of a Barbet in a family with children? Existing grooming, exercise needs, etc? What I’ve read so it is a good-natured dog who learn well if one’s handle is politely but firmly, need of exercise, but how very often / per day / in what form? Very grateful for answers and other input you can provide! /Kajsa Barbet The French Water Dog – Barbet – a breed that is rarely seen in the dog world.
  • AKC Education Webinar Series: FSS/Miscellaneous Questions and Answers

    AKC Education Webinar Series: FSS/Miscellaneous Questions and Answers

    AKC Education Webinar Series: FSS/Miscellaneous Questions and Answers 1. Can an FSS Parent Club offer an ATT Test? If the Parent Club is licensed to hold any event, it may offer an ATT Test. 2. For a domestically evolving breed that started with an independent registry for 20 years, then accepted into UKC for an additional 20 years, can these two be combined to qualify for the 40 years required to be considered into FSS, or must the 40 be done within the same registry body? The history of a breed having a registry for a minimum of 40 years can be merged as described, staff will review to determine if it would meet the parameters required. 3. Does AKC have reciprocity with UKC? AKC has open registration with individual breeds with that are registered by UKC. A breed requesting to be enrolled in the AKC FSS based upon UKC recognition would have reciprocity, if it meets the number of years being in existence, until the breed becomes AKC recognized. At which time the individual breeds may request to keep the studbook open for UKC registered dogs. 4. Is it a good practice to submit all of the required data to AKC in one PDF electronically to FSS as a final submission, once all criteria is met for the ease of processing?
