EXCITING NEW VENTURE!!!

INTRODUCING THE GRAND BASSET GRIFFON VENDEEN

TO SOUTH AFRICA!!

For a long time we looked into adding another hound breed to our pack. After research we decided that the best breed to add to our basset hounds would be one of the Basset Griffon Vendeen breeds. At first we were interested in the PBGV - (Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen) - but after getting to know the breed characteristics of the GBGV - (Grand Basset Griffon Vendeen) - which is more laid back and relaxed, we decided that we would really like to acquire some of them and establish the breed in South Africa.  But because the breed were not available in South Africa, we had to take on the process of getting this breed registered with KUSA, before we could bring one into South Africa. 

After the lengthy process of research and getting a breeder that we could work with, the time has finally arrived to introduce this breed to South Africa. 

The first GBGV - of many - will soon arrive in South Africa and we will introduce him into the show-ring in 2016. 
We are very excited to start this new journey with a fantastic breed, and we hope that the breed will go from strength to strength in the future. As you can imagine, we will only plan litters of the GBGV in the next 2 to 3 years, but if you are really interested and prepared to wait that long for one, you are welcome to drop us an email in that regard.
