We are delighted to let you know that Bella gave birth to the CaicosRoo’s B litter last night. It was a long night for Sarah and Bella but at the end of it all there were seven beautiful Entlebucher puppies. Mum and pups (and human) are all doing well. Their names are: Boys : Blue Moon, Beaumont, Boerwolf & Bravado
Girls : Bijou, Bayo & Babeli. Little Bijou was the smallest at 333g, but she’s doing ok.

This brings the number of Entlebuchers in the UK to 89.

There are three parts to the breeding tests for an Entlebucher Mountain Dog in the UK. They need to pass their health tests, conformation to breed standard and character tests. On 20th May the Club ran the official Character and Conformation Tests and the results are as follows:

Character Test Passes

Alfie Bangwood (M) (Buddy)
Caicosroos Alba (F)
Glenn Koppa z Mokrovous (M)
Torfheide D’Artagnan (M) (Leo)
Torfheide Della (F)

Conformation Passes

Alfie Bangwood (M) (Buddy)
Glenn Koppa z Mokrovous (M)
Torfheide D’Artagnan (M) (Leo)
Torfheide Della (F)
Torfheide Dixie (F)

Due to being in season both Dixie and Alba have elements of the test to complete when they can be seen in the next few weeks.

Well done to all the dogs. We will shortly add a new Breeding Dogs page to the site with details of all those who have now passed these tests. Health tests are still to be completed before they can join the breeding programme, but these are underway.
