Shkoda, 3  years old.

Shkoda's outline is the quintessence of borzoi, standing and running.
Shkoda's sire Vega Shelk Shafran---Zadar is imported from Russia from hunting bloodlines;
you could not find a saner, smarter, gamer dog.
Like Sailor, Zadar has presence. His two progeny who have run OFC both have AK's,
and his daughter Rijana is accomplishing great things in her obedience and agility career.
He is the sire of dual show and lure coursing champions.
Zadar's children are proof and testament to his wonderful character and athletic ability.
They are also Sailor's grandchildren though their mother Valeska We All Shine On, lovely Vikhra.
We very much look forward to continuing to combine Sailor and Zadar,
two wonderful producing males, in this breeding of their descendents.
Zadar will be featured in the upcoming issue of the new printed magazine,
in both Russian and ENGLISH languages, Borzoi In The Native Land, issue 2/2011.
