Un échange par email avec une personne qui cherchait un Barbet.
Au moins, elle a fait de vraies recherches et son compte rendu est affligeant pour cette belle race qui a été détruite par les "éleveurs".
CQFD.

Re Bonjour ,
Comme vous me l’avez dit ,on a trop
mélangé des races différentes pour redonner vie au Barbet et de ce fait on n’a pas réussi à en stabiliser le standard dans les élevages
Parfois le pelage est trop frisé serré parfois pas assez
La frisure n’est pas toujours uniforme sur tout le corps
La tête ressemble trop à celle d’un caniche parfois et ça c’est le pire ….
Quel gâchis !
Je me trompe peut-être….
Alors je vais me tourner vers un caniche moyen noir
Ce n’est pas mal non plus
Je connais un très bon élevage qui n’est pas en France d’ailleurs

J’ai cette chance de savoir vers qui me tourner pour avoir un chien de qualité
Mais j’ai l’intuition que le Barbet avait quelque chose en plus ….
Une vraie personnalité bien à lui ….
Bien à vous

For those who visit this page and know there are 2 Barbets. The old TYPE or Vieux (griffon) Barbet and the refabricated Hermans Poodle TYPE.
Have a look. You will not see this one at shows.
Look at tail set, gait/ movement and of course the coat TYPE which identifies a breed.

Enjoy.
Ps. She is pointing. It is a gundog...😆😊

Very nice fluffy Hermans TYPE barbets coming soon!

Le barbet est le chien de famille et de compagnie idéal. Autant il est enjoué à l'extérieur, autant il aime se lover au pied de la famille à l'intérieur. Chien rapporteur, il a besoin d'une bonne marche tous les jours mais sans pour autant détruire vos souliers si un jour de grande pluie vous confine un peu.

La liste d'attente est ouverte pour la prochaine portée d'Hadèle et Jules, deux Barbets pure race, pur Douxbarbu!

Factually, the word for barbet is Poodle/Caniche in French.

An archetypic water dog of France, the Barbet is a rustic breed of medium size and balanced proportions who appears in artwork as early as the 16th century.

Why do you love the breed?

A heck of a great deal.
Has also a pedigree.

Poppy is a sweetie- she has beautiful brown fur like her Dad with a white patch on her chest. Dad is a UKC registered Portuguese water dog and Mom is an AKC registered Barbet with her championship. Both of these breeds are very loyal and people focused. We think they're better than doodles with hypo...

Facts and no fiction.Enough is enough!

The information here is factual drawn from archives and testimonies. It can all be proven and sources cross-checked.

It is destined to show that Jean Claude Hermans developed a myth with his non-factual writings and that in the end, he was removed from the Club he created in 1981 to promote the breed he hoped would bear his name ( as E Boulet and Mr Korthals)

The Barbet he created /re-incarnated as he says himself, source of many tribulations and fights over the last 40 years finally lost its club at the French SCC in October 2017. No one wanted to deal with the issue, so it is now under the Club du Caniche, where it best fits and a direct descendant of the Poodle, and not its ancestor.

In the end.. a bit of reading: http://www.barbetkoi.se/files/6c4d52ddb3532e17882a6961d5a0e677-424.html

...Perte du sens des réalités, intolérance à la contradiction, actions à l'emporte-pièce, obsession de sa propre image et abus de pouvoir... Ce seraient quelque uns des symptômes d'une maladie mentale liée à l'exercice du pouvoir, le syndromed'hubris. In French.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hubris in English.

If anyone has any information to add that is of course, factual, they are very welcome to add to the stones laid.

The Vieux Barbet is a dog breed threatened with extinction.

The Barbet Moderne is a new breed and is rare, granted but by no means threatened with anything...but refusal to accept any factual information presented. Internet myths ...

Picture is an F1 cross and not a true image of the breed.

Thank you!

WHAT IS A BARBET???

The term Barbet was originally the name for the bearded variety, the proto-griffon of the bird-dogs, of which the braque and épagneul are the shorthaired and longcoated varieties. In the time that the Barbet, which never has been a very abundant in France (idem like the other bird dogs) during the 17/18th century (in certain periods bird dog searchers were ordered to look for them and destroy them because bird shooting was for the king, not for ordinairy people), the name of the breed was remembered in some classes and used as some nickname for company dogs, no matter if they had beards or not, and the naturalists picked it up and used it for the new fashion breed, the poodle. Later on people copied information from all kinds of sources, wrote about dog breeds they never saw in their life, and confused information and later on this was even more copied and mixed and confusion became more the rule than the exception. That's where it all about. The French water dog, as typified in the modern standard, is a modern invention. The real Barbet (not in particular a French breed), of which the standard was established for the first time by accident in France, in 1886, is a remnant of an old hunting breed.
