Mindy was our pick from the F-litter and she has blessed us
with some really nice wins. When she was 18 months, she won the saluki specialty
in Vårgårda, Sweden under Garry Newton (Solaris), USA. At the age of two, she won a
sighthoundspecialty under the saluki and sighthound specialist Birgitha Runmarker
(Azadi) from
Sweden.
In 2005 Mindy won BOB at the prestigious saluki- and
afghanspecialty in France, Falapa under under specialty judge Anette Haferl (Tin
Hinan),
Switzerland. She was also Best in Show under the four judges Haferl, Norman H.
Corbett from Spain, David Allan from Spain and Sandy Frey, USA. One month later she won BOB and BIG-2 at the international VHD
Europasieger show in Germany under Martha Heine from Germany. Mindy has
continued to win allbreed Best in Shows and sighthound specialty-BIS. Her latest
big win was when she was placed fifth in Best in Show at the big Stockholm
international show in December 2008, with 6000 entries under Hans Lethinen,
Magnus Hagstedt and Karl-Erik Johansson!
In 2010 Mindy did great. She won two allbreed Best in Show and one specialty BIS
in Sweden from veteran class and ended the year as Mostwinning Salukibitch of
The Year.
Private, Mindy is wildest of them all,
especially when it comes to hunting. She is also very sweet and cuddly and
both Nicklas and I have a softspot for her. She can really twist us around her
little finger (or should I say paw). |
