Faridaat Salukis

  Gems of the Canine Crowd!

Since 1990, Faridaat Salukis has existed as a small scale "hobby" kennel producing quality not quantity. Our efforts are focussed on producing distinguished, moderate hounds to preserve the unique qualities and original function of the Saluki. We are of the opinion that preserving something as ancient and specialized as the Saluki is of primary importance so to that end you will not find us breeding exaggerated show ring movement or type.

We strive to produce Salukis that exhibit excellent field performance, moderate & functional conformation, and, at the top of our priorities, excellent health and outgoing, people-loving temperaments. Breeding for loving companions is without a doubt one of the most important factors in our program, because every puppy must first and foremost be a delightful family member! We pride ourselves on our home-raised, Canadian-bred Salukis!

In a few short years we have produced several worthy Conformation Champions, who are now embarking on their coursing careers, and will continue to do so. Our lines contain primarily Canadian lineage (orginating from Old English imports to Canada in the 1970's), a little bit of Dutch, and we have plans to incorporate some Country of Origin (COO) bloodlines in the future.
