HAPPY NEW YEAR

Happy New Year from Brighthope.
May 2017 bring you peace.

A BEAUTIFUL BRIGHTHOPE SUNRISE

WINTER

Brighthope, the morning after. Picardy Park truly is a WINTER WONDERLAND. Now we just have to find the gates to get into it.

GROWING PUPPIES

Once again I comment on how fast the time goes when one is watching a litter of puppies grow. This litter is so even in size and temperaments. I am sure that their new families will be thrilled when they finally get to take their puppy home.

"AUNTIE KIM IS HERE, AUNTIE KIM IS HERE"

LOT'S OF SMELLS TO CHECK OUT

WE MUST KILL THIS STUFFY TOY

WASN'T THAT A PARTY !!

A tired group of baby Blues. They ran and played and cuddled and hugged and when everyone went home they slept and slept and slept. We love "puppy parties".

WHERE'S THE CUTE BUTTON

TWO WEEKS OLD

Puppies enjoying some sunshine and a warm breeze. Just too cute !!

NEW BRIGHTHOPE PUPPIES

Our beautiful Eclat has once again given us a lovely litter of Blues. She is such a good mom. Of course Travers played a part in this as well, he just doesn't know it.
Puppies were born on Wednesday September 14. Of course when you want more of one gender you always seem to get more of the other. But we have 4 males and 1 female and all are doing just fine and they will grow and mature into beautiful Blues. I think we have some very excited families waiting to meet them.

OPEN HOUSE CANCELLED

Unfortunately we will have to cancel the open house on August 27th. Please contact us here at Brighthope about puppies or future litters.
We are always happy to answer your questions about our dogs.

BRIGHTHOPE PUPPIES

We confirmed that puppies are due in September. The ultrasound showed 4 but there could be more. These puppies would be ready for new homes in November.
We are planning an "open house" on Saturday August 27th from 10am - 1pm. Please email us if you are planning on coming.
Here are pictures of the sire and dam of this litter due.

MORE BRIGHTHOPE BABIES

Here is beautiful Calais, from our most recent litter. She is a Lyle/Arine puppy born on November 22 2015.
Her owners sent me a lovely email and described life with Calais. By the sounds of things she is a typical Blue Picardy.

CALAIS AT THE COTTAGE

Looks like Calais is going to enjoy her summer. The water looks lovely. Great picture.

HUGO IS HOME

HAPPY ENDING
Hugo was reunited with his owners last night. He was missing for about 30 hours, that was a long 30 hours for his owners, and likely even longer for a 5 month old puppy.

A PICTURE IS WORTH A THOUSAND WORDS

MISSING PUPPY

Hugo is missing and we need to get him home. He lives in Cambridge Ontario, he was visiting family with his owners in Moffat. He broke his collar and ran. This is a rural area with lots of bush, he has been gone since yesterday afternoon. If you live in the Guelph, Milton, Moffat area of Ontario please keep your eye out for this little fellow. He is likely very frightened as he is in an area not familiar to him.

HUGO, MISSING BLUE PICARDY SPANIEL

BRIGHTHOPE BABIES

As I have mentioned many times we have met lots great people through our 30 years of involvement in purebred dogs. We love placing our puppies into great homes and we also love getting up dates and pictures as they grow and mature. Many times our puppy buyers will come back and get a second and even a third dog from us. When Ramsey needed a playmate her owner contacted Brighthope and requested another Blue. We were more then happy to place another puppy with them.

CIRON

This beautiful picture was taken by the Ratigans at our Brighthope Picardy picnic last fall.

AVAILABLE PUPPY

This little fellow is available to a new home. He is 11 weeks old now so he has grown since this picture.

BRIGHTHOPE  MY EYES ADORED YOU

Yes this is the "Frankie Valli" litter. And yes I know I am "dating" myself.

EXPLORING

The puppies always enjoy their outside time. We went from 10 puppies to 4 puppies in just 5 days. From all accounts we have 6 very happy families with their new Blue puppies. It's a lot quieter here at Brighthope, although 4 puppies can still create quite a ruckus at feeding time.

THE POINTING PUPPY

WHAT'S SO INTERESTING ?

CAN I SEE TOO !!

I don't think that we will get many pictures without the "photo bombing" mini wire in them. Hope is a typical dachshund, they always have to know what's going on.

PUPPIES AND PLAY

Puppies are always on the go here at Brighthope. When the weather keeps them inside there is plenty of things to do.

HAPPY NEW YEAR

Where did 2015 go??? They say as you get older the time goes by much faster.....no comment!
We had a new addition to Brighthope over the holidays, yes this one has 4 legs ( 4 short legs ). After a year of waiting ( even breeders have to be put on waiting lists ) we picked up our Miniature Wire-haired Dachshund on Dec.26th. We have had dachshunds, long-haired and smooth, in the past but have been without one for almost 10 years. Hope has fit in very well with the Blues and we all know how well "the Blues" get along with other dogs.
