EL ALCAZAR SALUKIS | Bred for beauty, health and performance

My litter pack!!!!

My love for Salukis was born one day in the spring of 2005, while watching a TV program called Animal Planet. They were showing Breed all About It, and that day the breed selected was Saluki. I got impress how magnificent they were, when I saw 2 beautiful black three color salukis lying over the duns in the desert. I didn’t move from the TV until the program finished, this was the first time I saw a saluki and I felt in love with them.

Since that day, I started my "journey" to look for a Saluki, knowing it going to be tuff, I was willing to travel to any place, any where to get one, and I did it!!!!

When looking for a Saluki Breeder, I got in touch with Madeline Burdette from Haalah Saluki in Georgia, USA; I have to thanks a lot to Madeline, because in this journey she was my "mentor". She also trusted me, her beautiful boy Haalah Prince Fonce Du Moroc in November 2005, now FCI Int. Mult. Ch.

I also, have to thanks the trust of two excellent breeders who believe in my dreams and made this possible and they are Anja Kraus from Achthamar Salukis in Germany, were I import my beautiful German girl, Achthamar Diva of Marrakech, in November 2006 and Veronica Margelin from Asarafi Kennels in Finland, were I traveled 16 HOURS!!!! to pick up my beauty and sweetie girl, Asarafi Princess Phedra in January 2007. It is very funny to remember, when I arrived at the customs in Finland they asked me, my reasons of my visit to Finland and when I said very natural "to pick up a puppy".... the customs guard punched my passport astonished!!!!!

Combining the classic old English and World Winning Championship Finnish lines to the beautiful old German lines and imported desert breed’s, I will start my breeding foundation.

El Alcazar Salukis is run by Rosanna Colón in San Juan, Puerto Rico. USA
