Snow falls from the heavens pure...

The Ice Queen in the first snow on Saturday

Ramon 11.10.2000 - 15.9.2014

Ramon, the saluki who knew the meaning of life and all the mysteries of the Universe, but thought it was a good joke not to tell. 

Ramon was all the good things in life, he would light up the darkest days. 

His beauty, passion, fidelity and joie de vivre were unforgettable. 

Ramon was a precious gift every day of his life.

We shall miss him dearly.

Kesäkissa

The feline is enjoying the summer. 

Don't believe everything you see on the web...

The Saluki archives could be a great resource of knowledge for all saluki lovers, they obviously have put in a large amount of work.  It was very nice to see how quickly they put up a litter announcement - and it's free of charge! However, the true worth of a database is in the validity of the information.

Unfortunately the camera of my phone had a hard time keeping up with the oldies.

Yasir is perfect 10!

Yasir turned 10 on the 16th of April 2014!

The Little Joys in Life

Today we took Ramon to the vet's, because he had lost some weight and his old sport injury was bothering him. The vet did a thorough check and blood tests. Ramon is totally healthy: his heart and lungs sounds good and all his blood values were excellent! Well done Ramon!

 The chillin' at home edition

You know how nice it is to have a house full of clean dogs with shining coats and silky fringes. Here are the boys pictured after their bath on Saturday:

Puppies planned!

A litter is planned for our lovely Kasaque Nacomis in the spring 2014.

We hope for puppies in the middle of April.

The sire of the litter to be is our elegant gentleman El Hamrah Taraf-Tahir.

The Pedigree of the future litter.

Jada is the embodiment of moderation. A very sound bitch, whose only been lightly show due to her owner/handler's other commitments. She has been healthy all through her 6 years. She has a strong temperament, but behaves well with people and dogs alike. She is beautifully bred and carries the lovely athletic Kasaque lines, which have always produced excellent offspring with the elegant El Hamrah lines.

Ramon is an elegant charmer and the easiest dog to live with. In his youth a dazzling show star, now a healthy and still lively veteran going on 14. Many know his beautifull light gait and sweet expression, but only a few have seen him at home when he puts on the funny hat and makes us smile.

We are expecting sound and moderate puppies with a dash of special elegance. The puppies will hopefully grow up to be salukis who are a joy to share everyday life with and who have potential for all kinds of canine activities.
