Northrock Barbets

In the spring of 2015 Summer travelled all the way to Canada from the Netherlands and was welcomed here with open arms. We are so grateful to her breeder Anne Plomp and to Miska Aksular for entrusting us with this beautiful ray of sunshine who has brightened our lives.

A pretty Barbet, Summer has obtained both her UKC and CKC Conformation Championships as well as titles in Trick Dog, Rally and Obedience but her achievement of which we are the most proud is her Therapy Dog title. A child certified therapy dog with Therapeutic Paws of Canada, Summer enjoyed the attention she received when visiting with people at our community schools, libraries and hospital.
She has had one litter of two males sired by CH Northrock's Athos Pascal which was born on January 17, 2019 and both of her offspring are doing well.

I fell for this sweet, pretty Barbet puppy from the minute she was born. As the weeks went by it was clear that she would be staying on as our keeper from our Billy and Lexi litter. Sired by Dutch champion, Nuphar's Everything Zen - we are ever so thankful for the science that allowed us to import frozen semen for this special breeding. Our heartfelt appreciation goes out to Billy's owner Olav van Schie and his breeder Anne Plomp for their friendship and co-operation in making this litter a reality.

In the early spring of 2018, Gracie very quickly earned her CKC championship. Not just a pretty face she also has her Canine Good Neighbour and Advanced Trick Dog titles to her credit.

Gracie has such lovely breed type; a beautiful head, correct tail set, nice substance and a wonderful coat are some of her attributes. Her gentle personality has us all smitten with her. We love how she will happily roll over for belly rubs and enjoys crawling up into our laps for a cuddle. She has a fun and friendly personality and I am looking forward to the adventures we will have together.

On December 8, 2019 Gracie's first litter of nine beautiful Barbet puppies was born sired by GCH Polnareff vom Zulimo. On October 26, 2020 Gracie whelped her second litter and we and welcomed ten wonderful puppies by GCH Barbevoix Oscar De Northrock CGN into the world. Gracie's third litter, a sweet singleton sired by CH Northrock's Jedi At Patronum was born on March 18, 2022. As our Northrock family continues to grow we are enjoying supporting the families who brought one of Gracie's puppies home and we share in their delight as their young puppies grow and develop.

Cocoa is a pretty Barbet, she has a lovely thick chestnut brown coat with a gorgeous curl and correct tail set and carriage. She's an easy mover with well balanced proportions and a pleasing typey head. In the spring of 2022 Cocoa attended her first CKC conformation shows and is pointed towards her championship.

She is a super sweet girl who is a loyal companion to her two owners. Her co-owner Cherise Berman had hoped for a puppy that would like to snuggle and Cocoa has fulfilled that dream. She is a consummate cuddler, a willing playmate to her housemate Rex (another Barbet) and always happy to go for long walks or boat rides with her owners.
