We are exactly one week away from Groomania, Europe’s biggest grooming competition!

I’m pleased to share that I’ll be hosting a breed specific seminar next week in Belgium ! I feel very honoured that I was invited to share my passion towards PBGVs and also grooming dogs.
Also, I am gonna compete in handstripping class which is something that excites me a lot.

This event will focus on enhancing grooming skills and exploring the latest trends in the industry,
it’s a great opportunity for anyone interested in grooming, whether you’re just starting out or have some experience. We’ll have discussions, demonstrations, and time for questions.

They were originally bred to hunt and today they are taking a huge part of our lives as therapy dogs, assistance dogs, due to their exceptional nose they can smell people under rocks, they can smell drugs, cancer, low blood sugar and list goes one.

Last 3 weeks of Austria and USA were absolutely amazing, it started with the wedding of my best friend Natascha and her very much loved Mak. Our friendship started nearly 10 years ago, we met trough dogs, in fact Natascha became my closest friend and cooperator as well, this beautiful person stands behind "Troublemania" () prefix and Mak behind "ProDog Photography" () . I could not describe how honoured I am to be their maid of honour ♥️ We have been trough some of the happiest life moments but also trough not so happy too, this friendship means a world to me, these two people are truly my chosen family.
The Dog on photos is Evita, very important dog to Natascha but to me too, she is the main connection of our friendship , not only that she is beautiful herself but her kids are too and her grandkid Meghan that lives with me.

👀 POAG & genetic testing 👀

One of the most freqently asked questions is about genetic testing, and I am truly happy when the question comes up because it means people are researching about the breed specifics instead of just falling for the adorable, always smiling look of the PBGV.

Nowadays genetic testing is the phenomenal tool for breeders, it gives possibility to avoid diseases, especially the ones that are fatal for the dog. But not all diseases are the same, some do not cause any harm to the dog like ischtiosis to golden retrievers, but some, like POAG (Primary Open Angle Glaucoma) in PBGV can and it will cause loose of sight, very painful intraocular preassure that often leads to eye removal surgery.
Once you take the swab or blood sample results will come back as:
1. Clear N/N (not carrying copy of the gene), which means dog is healthy and cannot develop the disease nor produce it further
2.CARRIER N/n (carrying one copy of the gene), which means dog is healthy and cannot develop the disease. However, these dogs must be mated to Clear dogs only in order to produce healthy offspring because otherwise some puppies will have both copies of the gene like Affected ones
3.Affected n/n (dog will develop symptoms of disease at some point in life), they are carrying both copies of the gene.
When it comes to breeding, it is important to keep Clear tested dogs just like Carriers too, especially in the breed that has rather small genepool like PBGV. And why is that?
Simply because once you exclude all Carriers, you might exclude POAG as a problem, but for sure you are loosing a very valuable other set of genetic traits and the new problem will most likely come up!
Dogs are living beings just like us, they are not and cannot be genetical perfection, but what it can be done is to test genetically and clinically and follow all the available pedigrees in database so we can have them as healthy as possible.
