Let me introduce myself
Hello, thank you for taking an interest in the Sansorrella website.
I'm Sandra and I've spent what seems a lifetime rearing five lovely enjoyed several years involved in falconry, breeding and flying various birds of prey (falcons, hawks, owls and vultures) and regularly gave talks/demonstrations in schools, clubs etc. Several years ago I got back into breeding and showing Shelties (a breed I had kept before having my family) and have had some success in the show ring and have bred Cruft’s qualifiers. In 1999 I found the Northern Inuit dog and my life has never been the same since! My three greenhouses that used to produce an abundance of colour for my garden remain sadly neglected and my beautifully landscaped garden resembled a lunar landscape when I left it recently to venture into pastures new (literally). After a tremendous upheaval we have now relocated to much more suitable and 'dog friendly' premises in Lincolnshire. The dogs absolutely love it and have much more space - I have more grass cutting to do but the enjoyable walks on the beach make up for the extra work involved. There is also a small greenhouse, so you never know I may start pottering around plants again. I have no shortage of visitors to help with the garden and running the dogs etc. and my new place seems to be a popular retreat for weekend breaks and short holidays for my doggy friends - long may it last!!!!
The aim of the Association is not only to keep a database of the breed including pedigrees and health records, but to bring owners and their dogs together at various shows and events up and down the country and to offer help, advice and education. We are also striving to achieve Kennel Club recognition of the breed and I am currently liaising with the Kennel Club with this objective. There is a link to the Association's website on my Links page and on the Inuit Dog Association page. We are also concerned about the health and future vitality of the breed and are maintaining records concerning the health of the Northern Inuit population with the help of owners and breeders across the country, regardless of which club they belong to.
