A major update will soon arrive here



December: Cahina will be mated soon ** New **

We are anxiously waiting for Cahina to start her heat. When the time is right we will go to France for the mating with Derar du Doggenhagen, a white Aïdi male born April 24, 2008 from Udfel d'Araval and Ouzro de la Baume Cromagnon. Derar has, in spite of his low age; already several show titles such as World Winner 2009 in Bratislava and Champion of Slovakia. His parents are probably the most merited Aïdis in the world. Udfel (the mother) has 10 champion titles; CIB and nine national champion titles plus a large amount of winner titles. Ouzro (the father) is a champion Internationally (CIB) and in France, Belgium, Luxemburg and Morocco.

December 13: Cahina was shown to a breed specialist from Morocco. ** New **

The Stockholm show had engaged a breed specialist from Morocco to judge Aïdi and the African sighthounds (Azawakh, Sloughi and Saluki). Abderrahi El Baroudi gave Cahina a lot of praise, as well as BOB and CACIB. The short critique was: "Excellent type. Nice dog, typical, could be stronger, excellent pigmentation, excellent head and proportions, excellent chest, excellent topline and underline, excellent tail." Afterwards he explained that with "could be stronger" he ment that she could be more "like a bear", but that she is still a young bitch and that will come with age. It was good to hear that she is a very typical and good bitch, and very appropriate for breeding.
