Lipton


Lipton is a 6 year old Flat-coated retriever. His full name is Chapelvalley Lipton Boy. In 2006 he became both Belgian Beauty Champion and Belgian Working Champion ( both his parents were too ). He is a tireless working dog and an outstanding swimmer. He displays natural abilities for the retrieval of birds and is of excellent assistance during shooting and hunting. His owner runs the hunting division at our dogclub. Lipton is actively employed 40 days per year. Last week, he very enthusiastically jumped off a 3 meter bank into 10 cm of water and badly sprained his wrist. The cast will have to stay on for 2 weeks and he will have to rest. He lives with a family who has two children and a chocolate Labrador. He is a super pet.
Lipton lives outside Brussels.

Sarko


Sarko is a mixed-breed dog. A mutt in other words. A Heinz 57.
He is 7 years old and Lola’s playmate. He was adopted by Lola’s family just over a year ago around the time of the French presidential elections. Hence his name. It’s the third time he is adopted. He is full of beans but I would actually label him as hyperactive. I am convinced he has finally found happiness.
Sarko and Lola live just outside Brussels.
