A blog about preservationist breeding of Azawakh, one of the world's last remaining canine landraces...

I can still feel him in my hands...
...this beautiful haanshee k'nai (Djerma for "dog, but little" as in puppy). By the time I found him I already had five puppies to bring back (and no idea how I was going to afford to bring THOSE back)...so I was not able to bring him. He was so beautiful. But then which one is not? Each has something special...al hamdullilah. I hope he is still alive today and continues to grow and develop and maybe has already enriched the genetic base of the Sahelian dog population, Insh'Allah.
