![]() Madame Bennert |
Madame Bennert saved the breed from extinction. She purchased her first Lowchen around the age of twenty from breeder Maximillion de Coninck in 1897. Madame Bennert never bred Lowchen until she entered her retirement years, when she recognized that during World War II, there were no more official breeders registering their dogs in any breed registries that survived the war. Madame Bennert, in her sixties, consulted with the Belgium registry, "Livre de la Societe Royal St. Hubert de Belgique," to find names of all that bred Lowchen, prior and after the first World War. And this is the beginning of the breeds resuscitation. |
