Nine Entlebuchers, including three puppies from the most recent litter, met up for a walk at Salcey Forest on 30th December. Despite the rain, all those present had a lovely time meeting old and new friends and blowing away the cobwebs.
11 Year old Male Entlebucher in need of a home
We have a male Entlebucher who will be 11 years old in September in need of a new family to cherish him in his senior years. The need to rehome him is due to his family moving abroad to tropical climes which will not be suitable for him, particularly with his age.
He has lived in both city and country settings and has been used to being an only dog (although may welcome company). Due to his age, adjusting could take a little while and will need love and patience. His current owners are happy to maintain his lifetime insurance cover so that any treatment will be covered as he ages.
He has had operations to repair cruciate ligament tears, but is otherwise healthy and is not currently on any regular medication.
If you are interested in discussing this in more detail, please get in touch as soon as possible. chairman@entlebucher.co.uk

Welcome to the world, Cotton and Carling Eiger

Heidi Entlebucher, 3.5 years
old, is looking for a forever home. Heidi was diagnosed with Ectopic Ureter in
early puppyhood and despite operations she has remained urinary
incontinent.
Heidi is a very loving family dog who has been in foster care in a family
environment until we were happy that her condition is fully stable and she is
ready for a home of her own.
Heidi is urinary incontinent. She is happy to wear pants in the house as long
as there are no other dogs present.
She is currently in excellent health although this needs to be monitored
closely.
There is full information and medical history available as well as ongoing
support from the EMDC.
For more information, please email Sarah at rescue@entlebucher.co.uk
15 of the 16 dogs present at today’s meeting and their humans. A wonderful day to celebrate the Club’s 10th anniversary.
Today the Entlebucher Mountain Dog Club of Great Britain is ten years old – Happy Birthday to us – Alfie wrote a first paw account of how it all began and Wilma has republished it here today on Alfie’s Diary
In memory of Queenie – Queen Viktoria Spod Hradze 4.9.2005 – 14.01.2019 – It is with great sadness that we report the crossing of the Rainbow Bridge by Queenie. Mother of 15 of the UKs dogs and grandmother of 21. Our sincere sympathies to her humans and to her housemate Orson.
Today our breed has reached an amazing milestone. With the arrival of Kylo from the Czech Republic we have 100 Entlebucher Mountain Dogs resident in the UK. From the first one to arrive in 2003, to the tenth in 2008 it has taken us a further ten years to reach a hundred and we are absolutely delighted. Our Club will officially be ten years old next year and it is exciting to be able to celebrate with such a strong base to build from.
Welcome little Kylo, we hope you are your family will be very happy together. 
We are delighted to say that Blueberry SwissArt arrived from the Czech Republic yesterday. She is to be known as Cracker. With moves out of the country in the intervening time, she is our 98th dog in the UK.
