Beautiful Words from the judge

Caravan Xanthia went BEST IN SHOW at the swedish saluki specialty show in Ljungbyhed may 15th. The judge was Carole Tipler, Al Yaman salukis. See the fine words Carole Tipler wrote about here winners;

My winners reflected my hearts desire for moderation, angels and straight movements coming and going and that lovely effortless movement when wiewed from the side!

And she also wrote this:

5 years, beautiful, lovely size, balanced head plains, lovely dark eyes, butterfly nose, good shoulder, nice topline, good moderate angulation, good muscle, good brisket and tuck-up, good topline, croup and tailset, good feet, moves correctly.

We are so proud of our beautiful girl!
