The queen of my heart
Oonah, the queen. The one and only is still keeping us waiting for her heat. For sure it can’t be so far away now. The rest of the pack is often sniffing her under her tail with a great interest and during our walks we can’t get more than a couple of meters before she needs to leave a pee for other dogs to find. From time to time I ask her if she is not interested in getting puppies again soon. She looks at me curiously but never answers. Maybe that is what is scaring her from getting in…

A dream
Apparently I am so longing for this lady to get in heat that I am now dreaming of it…. We were visiting parents of a friend. In the real life, these people have the cleanest house I have ever seen. We were enjoying some coffee in the sun on their veranda when I for some reason wanted to find Oonah. I went inside the house and saw that she was sleeping on their white sofa. She woke up when I entered the room and came to me leaving a huge spot of blood on their expensive sofa. I got so…

Still waiting for that heat
I am not really sure which is worse. Waiting for heat to start, waiting for the first signs of pregnancy or waiting for birth to start. There is only one thing that it sure and that is that there is a lot of waiting in the process of making a litter. Oonah is still not showing any signs of heat being there but she is very interested in leaving the trace after herself almost everywhere on our walks. This makes me hopeful as it usually is the first sign of the approaching heat.

Colour DNA of Lo and Dottie
As you most likely know by now both David and me are very interested in colour genetics of salukis. For this reason we colour test all our salukis. We already knew what Oonah’s colour code is so three weeks ago we ordered a test of her daughters Lo and Dottie and now we got the results. I would like to also mention that we always order colour tests from The Veterinary Genetics Laboratory (VGL). The VGL is a non-profit, self-supporting unit of the School of Veterinary Medicine at the University of California, Davis, US. Dottie’s colour code is: Eg/e – one…

War in Ukraine
We would like to say that our family strongly condemns the war Putin started in Ukraine. War is NEVER OK and we are doing what we can to support the people of Ukraine by donations to the humanitarian organizations active in Ukraine. Let there be peace and love and not killing and occupation of an independent country.
