Welcome to another edition of Saluki International, our twelth; we
hope you enjoy it as much as we did putting it all together. This issue continues our
policy of providing stimulating and interesting articles and once again features the
use of full-colour reproduction on our cover pages. If you are a new browser to
these pages, we hope the following summary of the contents will whet your
appetite and encourage you to take out a subscription.
This issue has by far been the most difficult to produce; first we had the delightful experience of judgingin Australia and New Zealand, taking some four weeks out. Whislt we were away our cottage was flooded.....
Blowing our own trumped - and if we don't who will - The American Dog Writers Association once again recognised Brian Duggan's investigative skills for his article on "The Sketchbook of Major Moss".
Issue #12 has an exciting mix of subjects and personalities featured and once again proves the kaleidoscopic nature of the world of Salukis.
A somewhat heady mix, certain to stimulate the appetite-and for those still not satiated, there is always the next issue to look forward to.
Very best regards and wishes that all you hope to achieve with your Salukis will be achieved in the coming year.
