We have had Salukis since 1976, our first litter (litter A) was born 1992 out of S & N Ch Zera 'Ati El Achet Aton & S Ch Baklava's Jojoba. Two in this litter stayed at home: SCh Abu Baqr's Amesha Spenta & SCh Abu Baqr's Ana Hita. Ana Hita was the first Saluki in Sweden to recieve the Swedish KennelClub's working/breed prize. Litter B was born 1997 and three of these stayed at home, SCh Abu Baqr's Ba Mazeh, JWW-98 SCh Abu Baqr's Bamdad Bejad & SCh Abu Baqr's Babrack, both Ba Maze & Babrack has now sadly left us....

As you can see we are not "big" breeders , we have had a couple of litters during the years, all the dogs are living inside with us and are family members. The Saluki puppies are named with Persian or Arabic names and all names has it's meaning, like Ghazal Ghaliya, it means Lovely lovepoem, Ghaliya also means fragrant. The litters are named from the alphabet and we begun with A so now we are up with the letter H on the next litter. Jill is also breeding from her Chihuahuas.
For Abu Baqr's Ana Hita we have been awarded a prize for breeding of workingdogs. She was the FIRST Saluki to receiving this prize.
