Administrator — Mon, 13 Feb 2012 18:24:24 +0000

March 1, 2012 The Barbet standard has been revised within the UKC (United Kennel Club)
We thank the UKC for their dedication and commitment to our breed, and also to the Barbet folk who worked with the UKC to get these changes made. We look forward to many Barbet participating in UKC shows both here in Canada, and the United States.
The UKC is not just about conformation, they offer several excellent opportunities! Hunt programs, dog events, educational services, etc. Be sure to check out their site.
