Merry Christmas and a Healthy 2025
“Van Hoefflaecken’s Cocó “

25 years of Cocódotjes love

October

1999.10.23 – 2024.10.23 – 25 years of Cocódotjes

In my childhood we – thanks to my  uncle – had Schapendoezen
When I started my own family…..I had a Schapendoes
Since 1974,  during  25 years we only had cats……        

Today in 1999 my present ‘life with Schapendoes’ started.
>> no regrets what so ever!

It started on 1999.10.23 with Cocó
4 years later on her birthday she gave me my unforgettable Archimède Hijo
He made us happy with Ke-sera de Cocó’s Hijo

As she did with now almost 15 year old Ròsa Ke-sera
Then she filled our heart and house with precious I Besos di Ròsa
From her we have Djaya de Besos and Hniña de Besos.
And the 5th litter of the 7th geneartions now 3 weeks old.
My….am I a lucky woman – they were and/or are the joy of my life

Vanmorgen vloog ze nog……………….

but at 08.45 hours she folded her little wings
On our little cloud above they most certainly will be very happy with her arrival
Geboortevrouwtje and her doggie family are more than intensely sad

April up to and including July

So! Here we are again!
Finally done with this puppy time : the V-miracles of our Hniña de Besos.
They have all left our house and are happy at and with their new carefully selected families.
Three of them even with families who already have or had one of our puppies.
It was a lovelyt time – they were wonderful puppies, but it’s also good that it’s done.
Ofcourse not ‘out of sight is out of heart’!!
We wil see them again shortly during our ‘appr. 4 months old’ visits!

the V-miracles of Hniña de Besos

During April, May and June ofcourse there was more.
We for instance on 2024.04.02 celebrated the first birthday of the O-miracles of our
Djaya de Besos.
And on 2024.06.14 the 5th birthday of our 1st Gos Gala’s A-miracles.
Out of 7, 3 are still alive.

We also got news from Germany : about the passing of a puppy of our Hijo’s German N-litter.
Nino passed away on 2024.05.17 >>>> 16 years, 1 month and 1 week old!
We are thankful for the loving family where Nino was allowed to live his life.

To break away from such an intense puppy time, we always want to go away for a while.
Not ‘just away’, that;s not our way, having a goal ia always nice.
So we twice were out for a week and doing so also ‘did’ two shows.
First in Ciudad Real – Spain and after that in Zaragoza – Spain.
In Ciudad Real our 14 ½ year old veteran Ròsa Ke-sera participated on day one > just for fun.
Her daughter I Besos di Ròsa – also a veteran of almost 11 yers old – she also participated , but she
in Champion Class.
On the second day just her daughter Hniña de Besos was there in Champion Class.
All 3 ladies dit an excellent job and went home with the hoped for ( obligatoey ) points.
Ròsa Ke-sera and I Besos di Ròsa also won the titles of Veteran Latin Winner Ciudad Real 2024 resp.
Latin Winner Ciudad Real 2024.
Hniña de Besos won RSCE Winner Ciudad real 2024 > and that shortly after having 8 puppies!

Then there was the show in Zaragoza -Spain > this time only I Besos di Ròsa : in Champion Class.
Due to an unannounced change of judges she was to be judged by …….. Gerard Jipping!
Such a surprise …. to both parties!
During and after the judging we had a nice chat and he had to hear from me ……..that the show was
an International show…….really!
But : he awarded our ‘pride and joy’  her last point still needed for a very special title.
More about that later, we first wish to wait for the final confirmation.
She also won the title Pirineos Aragón Winner 2024.
On the way back she lay on the passenger seat next to me, sound asleep and dreaming.
Was she there alone? Or did the family join her?
Ofcourse they did : see them laying on the bed together.

the complete family on the bed together

Was that all there was, what we did??
Ehhhhhhhhhhh……………..no!
We made a final attempt to also with Ròsa Ke-sera win a 3rd point > to also for her obtain the
new title of International Veteran Champion.
Where were we to do so?
Last minute decision…on the ‘Utrechtse’ ….in Arnhem – NL! Really, de Utrechtse in Arnhem!
And she was successful! This lady in the Ring of Honour even made Best 6 Veteran Group!
Now tell me : isn’t this a – now truthfully – special way of ending her show career?

Ròsa Ke-sera …..last time in the showring…

And then….from being happy …. you tumble down into a pool of sadness….
A mail from the owners of Perro > a brother of our ( already passed away ) Rubí.
They had – justifiably – decided to let him go and were in need of a confirmation of doing the right
thing >> well, I gave it to them! It simply was time for our Perro to move to our little cloud up
above >> and so on 2024.07.05 he took of on his last journey…..
15 years and 3 weeks old – a wonderful age, don’t you think?
Gala’s Aradí Van Hoefflaecken’s Cocó > named after one of our favourite restaurants in Spain.
Perro had a wonderful and very active life with hos owners, their daughter and granddaughter in
Belgium – their granddaughter doesn’t even know of a life without Perro!
We are very happy and thankful for the lovely life he had with them

It was good that we shortly thereafter were to do someting nice : the start of the
‘appr. 4 months old’ visits of the V-miracles of Hniña de Besos.
This month I visisted 2 of them, and everything was fine, started teeth change and were as naughty
as you hope to see them!
The owners also were happy with their new family member, so > what else can one ask for?!
Visiting the other V-miracles will be done the coming weeks – more about that then.

Then my two oldies were to visit the Vet again : yearly check-up. After all had been checked and
found to be in order, they again got all their vaccinations > they are done for another year.
Djaya de Besos her vaccination…..was postponed for a while……
