SALUKI (GAZELLE HOUND) BREED NOTES

SALUKI NOTES WEEK ENDING 31 JULY, 1998

I have heard that Roy Goodby has been unwell and has had to spend some time in the hospital. He should be home now and I am sure he would enjoy hearing from everyone. Lynne Ingram has suggested that letters and cards would be preferable to telephone calls as Roy needs to rest.

The RDCC was Mrs M Bryce-Smith’s Kasaque Hyperion of Saruk. BCC, for her third, was Mrs A. Faber’s Kasaque Huntress of Sufeina.

Best puppy was Mr. M. & Mrs. S. Spooner’s Manzemar Manjiri.

Congratulation to Mr & Mrs McCormick-Smith on winning the best brace on the day at Windsor Championship Show. The Salukis were Glenoak Hucithia and Mumtaz Star Song. Unfortunately there was not an overall competition over the three days.
