Litter plans for spring 2025!
I am so happy to share that time has come to plan for the new generation at Sommarvindens Kennel! ***Updated plans: As Dottie got too stressed by 2 days trip to Italy which resulted in her not being “ready” at all (or her flying through her “ready” period while being on the road) we now have updated litter plans. These…

Trip update
Our two days long trip started on Monday morning and took us to our destination on Tuesday evening. We met with beautiful Oman for a walk yesterday and visited him in his garden today. Both visits were very pleasant but did not result in any real ‘date’ as Dottie is not ready yet. This is totally fine with us and…

Updated plans
Plans change… We were supposed to travel to Italy today but as progesterone test showed that it was way too early we are going to wait a bit longer. It will also get warmer so hopefully there will be no snow either. I love snow when staying at home but to drive in it is not my favourite thing to…

Sad news
Today I received heartbreaking news that our dear Milo (Sommarvindens Michelangelo) passed away, 14 years and 10 months old. My thoughts go to his dear family. Milo is greatly missed and will never be forgotten. I hope that he is running free with his mother and his two brothers close to him.

Planning the trip
Dear readers, Now when Dottie decided to start with her heat the first thing we need to plan for is a trip to visit Oman. All our previous saluki litters’ sires were living within one hour drive from our home so it was easy to have a date with them whenever we wanted. This time we need to travel all…

Guess who decided to “turn on the heat” :)
In another words, time has come to share with you all that a journey towards our next saluki litter has officially started and that our trip to Italy, to meet beautiful Oman is planned. We will keep you posted on the development on this page, Instagram and Facebook. Once the mating has happened I will send email to you all…

Soon
Here comes an update for you who are, just like me, (un)patiently waiting for Dottie to get in heat. It can’t be so far away now I think. Dottie is peeing more often during our walks and she is showing interest larger than usual in the boys we meet on our walks. Our dogs are also smelling her under her…

Lo – her nick name should have been Houdini
Lo loves human food. And when someone is in the kitchen cooking dinner no door can stop her from getting there to see what is happening.

A life of a breeder…
A life of a breeder is a long list of searching, planning and waiting…. Searching for the best match for your bitch – I have no clue how many hours I spent searching through data bases, reading pedigrees, staring at pictures, watching videos to see movements, talking with fellow breeders, all in a search for that perfect match that feels…

Happy weekend dear readers!
On Sunday it will be six months since Dottie’s last heat. So now we are really close to it. Or not. It was seven months between her two last heats so she really knows how to keep me on my toes. I just hope that she can wait until we visit Växjö International dog show where I hope that she…
