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 I am just happy that she gets to know Oman before they do something. So what is my impression of Oman? From the moment I saw him live I knew I made the right choice. All pictures of him don’t…

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 do. And Dottie? She is just being Dottie. đź©·

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 the way to Italy. It is a trip of 1500 kms that will take us two days to complete. We will travel by car but will need to take a ferry from Denmark to Germany and we will also need…

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 who decided to be added to our waiting list.

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 right in the heart. What usually happens is that when I find a boy that I like he is too close relative to my bitch. This is nothing strange as we all have types we love and are looking for.…

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 will get her last CACIB. It would be so nice if she could add International Beauty Champion (C.I.B) to her titles before she becomes a mother.

Beautiful Oman
I received this picture of beautiful Oman – father to be of our planned litter, from his owner Barbara. I find him very beautiful and I am so longing to meet him. And as I know how all of you that are waiting for these puppies must feel, as I have been there myself several times, I would also like to share an update of where Dottie is when it comes to her heat. For now we are still waiting for her to get in heat. She usually gets in heat a week or so after her mother Oonah. And…
