• 270 claws to cut!

    Today I decided that it was time to cut puppies’ claws. They were so long that some of them started to break and I couldn’t allow that to happen. As their claws are so small, just 1 mm or so to cut, some real precision work needed to be done. On top of that, little ones don’t stand still for a second while awake, so cuting claws was not something I looked forward to do. However, with a little help from my husband it all went well.

  • Welcome our first saluki litter!

    Today, 28th May, our small family has increased with 10 beautiful little stars. ❤️✨? We welcome 4 males and 6 females to kennel Sommarvinden’s family. Oonah ❤️ did a great job during these past two days and managed to deliver all 10 puppies by herself. She was brave during the labour and is taking perfect care of all ten babies. ❤️? We have two golden girls, 4 creme girls, 1 dark boy (probably grizzle) and 3 creme boys. All are fringed.
