We are Members of the FCI, of the German Retriever Club and of the Chesapeake Bay Retriever Club of Nederlands www.straight-and-gentle.eu This is the website of Dr. Otto Brinkhoff and Barbara Schwoll-Brinkhoff. We live in a house with a nice garden in the outskirts of Aachen amidst  meadows and forests. As our children have spread all over the world with their own families, we are fully focussed on our hobbies and our dogs. We really enjoy the educational and sportive activities as well as travelling all over Europe - mostly accompanied by our dogs.   The core training work with the dogs is preferrably my job, whilst my husband gives us a lot of support regarding travelling to places where seminars, contests and training courses are conducted. He also supports our work by taking pictures and movies. Good Bye in Etzel In 2006, July 8th, we were happy to get our Chessie-Puppy... more in the Diary   OUR FAMILY      ETZEL-HUNTER BETTY SAMTESS
