Horses & a galgo...

When we went into town today to do some shopping there was a small caravan of horses and carriages.

Some of the "horses" were in fact mules...

Behind one of the carriages was a galgo, a nice looking cream/fawn colored one. It seemed very comfortable walking there. It was a nice cool day and they all kept a slow pace.

Finally Tara has got her puppies!

They are born August 6th, 2010.
The sire is Arab Bahari's Caliph Yasir and dam is Int LC Ch Caravan Wathaarah "Tara".
Tara is living in Norway and is co-owned by Nina K W Sandbæk. The puppies are born and will be raised there. They are looking dark compared to their light golden mother, we did expect different colours as the sire is a "black fringed fawn". There are 5 boys and 3 girls from golden/cream to black fringed red, fawn and grizzle. More photos coming soon!

Hot....

Whet it is hot outside like now, the dogs spend most of their days at the cool floor in the house...

What is the best position to really relax....?

In Paloma's opnion this is the best one.
It looks like she has no joints keeping the body and legs together...

Saluki puppies...

Here is Caliph trying his best to flirt with Tara. They were bred the 5th of June, so puppies are expected in the beginning of August.

Knodden and the Sheltie puppies...

The Sheltie puppies are now 6,5 week. Knodden loves to be with them and even if he is so many times bigger he is very careful with them.

They like a lot to be with him...
