Our names are Linda & Steve Remak. We have a daughter Daniela. Before having Salukis we both had dogs (Linda had a poodle for 15 years and Steve a mops for 13 years). We both liked sighthounds very much, but we could "afford" to keep them after moving into a house with garden.
 
     The name of our kennel is Arshan, which in translation means "strong and courageous" and thus called the place where healing mineral fountain springs out from the earth.
 
     Our first Saluki is a sable colored female Erela Naomi HADI el BASHER - "Naomi". Naomi comes from excellent Belgian kennel HADI el BASHER. Naomi was our first Saluki, which we owe the fact that we discovered the magic world of Salukis fully and completely, and we both fell in love with them. Naomi is a very intelligent dog, capable of self-opening doors and windows or switching the lights on. Sometimes we even feel that when we are speaking with each other, she can understand us. She is friendly to dogs, people, she is extremely obedient. Naomi is very careful and very sociable also in relation to children, and because of that reason she visited children in the kindergarten, which our Daniela is visiting, and why it was hard for all children say her „Goodbye“. She is an excellent hunter, very skillful, and many times we found in our living room a caught sparrow or mouse. She performs her thankfully and very easy and for this feature she is also popular among young handlers, who borrowed her a few times for junior handling and they were placed among the first places. Naomi in her exhibition career also reached the following achievements: Champion of Slovakia and Hungary, the Winner for Beauty and performance in two consecutive years 2008 and 2009, as well Coursing winner of year 2009. Naomi also won a title The most beautiful champion among 50 champion dogs exhibition in Hungary.
 
     Our second Saluki is a black and silver female Azizi Extera - "Teri". Teri comes from the successful Finnish kennel AZIZ - Saluki Breeder of the Year, a title that has been given to AZIZ in a large Finnish competition for more consecutive years. Teri has exceptionally cuddly nature and is looking very happy in our arms. She likes to accompany us at home and when we sit down, she sits down immediately to us and intently looking at us, to notice her and caress her. Terinka is just wherever we are, she is our Sweetie. Teri is currently still a young lady and is now at an age when she is very wild and haggard. She loves running, jumping, and some of her pieces are really stunt performance, which will make us close our eyes. She is a very good house-guardian, very quickly observes "guests" at our house and she starts barking to the moment while someone remain at our house. Teri is also the cleenest and most polite saluki we have heard about so far. From the age of 4-th months in this regard she makes a great joy, never surprised us abandoning her "brand" and our home was destroyed nota t all, nor any of our belongings, as the Salukis often do. Teri is in her 20th months Champion of Hungary, Bohemian Junior Champion, she was nominated for Crufts 2 times, 5 times she won as the most beautiful representative of the breed, she also won The Best in group and The second Best in group titles, etc.. Teri in 2009 received her coursing license and we hope that in 2010 she will make full use of it and she will enjoy running together with Naomi.
