Jana....to Afalkou
Afalkou is no longer with me; he died tragically last year, mash'Allah. But he lives on in his three sons out of Illi Tin Hinan Batna (bred by Brigitte Jacob Hamitouche, Reunion Island), al hamdullilah: Choum and Mahdjoub whom I retained for breeding, and Tadaksahak who was just exported to France to Corine Lundqvist. I ran acoss this photo of Afalkou and was struck at the resemblance to Jana. When I thought about his ancestry I realized there was no reason for my surprise. He carries five lines to Jana. Al hamdullilah.
