Marcasite Poodles First Annual Meet


This weekend we marked the 1st birthdays of our last litter by meeting up with the puppies and their owners and going for a family walk at Saunton Sands in North Devon. We also invited any other local poodles and their families to join us for the afternoon part of the walk.

We had a fantastic time! The weather was thankfully very good and it was really nice seeing all of the dogs and watching them interact. They generally behaved very well for a group of unneutered dogs and were a credit to their owners.

Below are a few of my favourite photos from the day. For the latter part of the walk there were around 25 poodles on the beach!
























Happy 1st Birthday to Otto, Ozzie, Lenny, Sawa, Archie, Winston and Peggy.

We are very much looking forward to making this an annual event and are looking at potentially organising a walk out of county next year, for a bit of variety.  So keep your eyes peeled for details of the next poodle walk.
Anyone interested in a future Marcasite puppy will also be very welcome to join us, as well as anyone who is just interested in the breed and all things poodle.

Filmwork Feedback



Following our time on set shooting the advert for hotels.com, I have had some lovely emails from both the production company and other dog handlers who were there.
I am so proud and I just wanted to share some of the feedback that we were given, alongside some of the official images that have now been released:

'Edna was a real credit to you. Such a natural! And such a lovely natured girl!'





'Thank you for finding such lovely dogs and excellent handlers. We would specifically like to call out Edna, Zeus and Cookie for being so well behaved. We have never seen a dog as good at posing as Edna! Fantastic!'




'She really was the star of the show. So well behaved and listened to everything you asked of her.'



'Edna was simply amazing!'

All is Revealed!


Hotels.com have just released their advert and it is absolutely brilliant (see above) this does not cover all of the work that Edna did on the day of her shoot but I believe that there will be further edits coming, so watch this space!

Edna also features as the cover girl for several major newspapers and magazines, to view these click on the links below:

The Daily Mirror
The Lady Magazine
The Sun
Inspiralist

Each of these links explain what pet owners can expect to happen with pet passports post Brexit, so they are well worth a read.

I do not have to say how elated I am having now seen the video and articles, but I will regardless 😀
I am incredibly proud to share my life with Edna, Peggy and of course little Stan. All three of them work hard for me always and are such happy eager to please dogs. I could not ask for more from any of them. I am one very lucky poodle owner!

I so enjoyed my time on set with Edna and would love to do more filmwork in future. Heres hoping that this is the start of things to come!
