Hello all!,

As the mascot contest is getting closer and closer to ending I have decided to see if there is anyone out there looking to start a new breed such as Stabyhouns

I am the mascot embassador for Stabyhouns

Sadly work, COVID-19, and the mascot contest has taken up all my time and I have not been able to update the embassy page.

I have saved up and am planning on doing a twin retirement breeding on Procyon.

I plan on keeping one offspring but wanted to see if there was anyone interested in the other baby.

If not there is no need to do a twinning. I am aware there is still plenty of time but I wanted to get an idea. 

Procyon is doing amazing and his mate is doing fairly well even though she is not getting the same attention as Procyon. :)

pleae let me know if you may be interested and I will keep a list. I may do an auction for the pup or if there is only 1 person they will just get the pup for a low cost.

Thanks everyone and good luck to the rest of the contestants I have been watching and all the entries look amazing!!

I have never heard of these, can you give more info? I would love to hear more :)

The Stabyhoun or Stabij is one of the top five rarest dog breeds in the world. Its is from Friesland and in particular from the Frisian Forest area, a region in the Southest and East of Friesland. The breed has been mentioned in Dutch literature going back to the early 1800s, but has only extended its range from the 1960s outside of Friesland and not until the 2000s did the range officially extend beyond the Netherlands. The Name Stabij translates roughly as "Stand by me" with the last part simply Frisian, meaning dog, which is pronounced "hoon". The dog is considered a Dutch national treasure. There are only a few thousand Stabyhouns in existence today worldwide.

The name Stabyhoun can be translated to the words “stand by me”, and this refers to their multipurpose. In Dutch, we say stabijhoon, whereas “houn” is the Frisian word f or “dog”.  Stabys are independent. Some people call it cockiness, others call it stubbornness or obstinance. But, in fact, it is independence, and that is something that is deliberately bred. The farmers wanted a dog that could work independently. And that property Stabys have retained still today. In case of insufficient and / or inconsistant guidance, a Stabyhoun can develop into a difficult and unstable dog. With proper guidance, you will have in a Staby, an adorable dog and a great friend for life. Stabys are very inquisitive. A nice feature, but at the same time they can also get into trouble. Generally they expect the boss to offer a helping hand. So always pay attention to what a Stabyhoun is up to, because with their inquisitive nature they also can fairly quickly find themselves in a difficult position

I have been looking for a more rare dog breed.. I may be interested.
