Happy Halloween
Happy Halloween everyone, today is Halloween and here at Safron Kennels we like to celebrate. Ivy, Piper, Ace and even Moby got into the Halloween spirit this year. This year my husband dressed up as a fireman and of course no fireman costume is complete without a Dalmatian, however since we only have Braque Francais here Ivy had to fill in.

Fall is here, which means a change in the colour of the leaves, cooler weather and our activities are being moved indoors. However we are still keeping active with our Braque Francais in a health clinic, hunting and agility. The fun never stops when you have a Braque Francais type Pyrenees.
The health of our dogs is very important to us here at Safron Kennels and we take as many opportunities to check our dogs health as we can. This past month we took Ivy and Ace to get their eyes and heart checked by specialist veterinarians. Although in the Braque Francais they do not have eye or heart issues that we know of we still like to make sure they are healthy and clear none the less. This was Ivy's update for her eyes and heart and she came back perfect eyes and perfect heart, just like last time. Ivy now has clear hips, eyes and heart we could not ask for anything better health wise out of her.

September marks the end of an active summer and the beginning of a fun filled fall with our Braque Francais. We have had a great end to the summer with Ivy in her fourth agility competition, Piper getting ready for her next hunting test, Ace getting his cast off and starting his foundation agility class. We are very please with how this past summer went and are hoping to continue the fun.
Ivy had great success at her fourth agility trail in September, she had great runs and was able to get a Q in starters jumpers. Not only does this mean that Ivy is half way to moving up to advanced she is over halfway completed her starters gamers title. We are very proud of Ivy and look forward to more agility success in the future.

Well it has been a very busy August here at Safron Kennels with hunting competitions, agility competitions and a new member joining us. Piper did her Natural Abilities test in Ottawa for the second time, Ivy had a successful agility competition and we welcomed our newest member Legacy de L'Arpon du Diable, nickname "Ace" all the way from France. However even with all this activity the dogs still find time play and relax in the yard.

Meet the Newest Member
Meet the newest member who has come to us all the way from France! Legacy de L'Arpon du Diable, nickname "Ace", has finally joined our family on Friday morning. See him just arriving in the early morning:
He had quite the journey from France first he flew from Pairs to Chicago where he had a layover, however at the layover they noticed that he was limping and had to go to the vet. They did an x-ray an found that he has a very small surface fracture on his tibia however he was banged up well and was able to complete the rest of his journey to Toronto. Below you can see that he was very happy to be home snuggling in bed:

We have a new look for our news feed!!!! Welcome to the new look for our news feed at Safron Kennels, you can now follow us, leave comments for us and check out older posts. Following us will make it easier for all our readers to keep up with the latest that is happening at Safron Kennels. You can see below that Ivy and Piper are happy with the changes.
July did not go as planned at Safron Kennels because both Piper and Ivy went into heat at the same time. This meant that we had to cancel all our competition plans and wait for the girls to finish their heats because they cannot run if they are in season. However we have still continued with agility training and hunting training on our own, below you can see that Ivy and Piper don't seem upset that the plans were changed:
