Me and my husband are living in a charming old house just outside Stockholm. Our dogs share our lives and are living as a part                                  of the family, sharing the sofas and beds! We have had sighthounds for 30 years now.

My hole life I have been interested in all kind of animals. As a teenager it was horses but later it went on to dogs. Our neighbour                                  had a Poodle and I spent lot of time there and almost lived there when she got puppies.

When I was at home with our son I became daycare to a Irish Wolfhound, Furlongs Dillon, born 1978, who we later bought.                                  With him I was introduced with dogshows as he already was a champion. Dillon past away at a age of seven.                                                              Our next Irish Wolfhound was born 1985, Clansmans Ikaros. With him I was competing in obediance, dogshows, tracking and trained him to           a securitygard-dog as I at that time worked as a securitygard. Ikaros was one of a kind and we had the fortune to share his life for                            ten years and he left a huge void in my hart when he past away in 1995.                                                                                                                                   At sparetime I was helping a rescue-center for dogs and German Shephard Olhedens Cayenne, born 1984 came to us. She lived with                           us until she past away at a age of eight.

At that time I held classes in obediance, tracking and dogactivating. Today I'm a boardmember of the Swedish Sighthoundclub and president of Stockholm Lure Coursing section.                                                                                                                                          

About 1984 I saw a picture of a Sloughi – it was the most beautiful sight. I read all I could about the breed as we didn't have any in Sweden at that time. I had to wait for twelve years before my dream came through and I fetched home Tillieville Zalute, born 1996. It was a long wait but since then I have enjoyed every second of sharing my life with these beautiful and intelligent beings...
