Yeah, we're still alive and kicking although the rare updates on our Website don't really show it! Many things have happened in the last months, and not always has "luck" (if you want to call it that way) been by our side and some plans just went wrong. But seeing Tigro Babies photos just make us smile! Click here to see more... it's worth it!

- Coursing & Offspring News -
As we say Gran Pamir blooded dogs are dual purpose afghans... Quality and function for shows & sport! They are again proving to be among the top winning ones over here! In fact, the team for the European Championship was made up of 12 Afghans: 3 were Gran Pamir dogs (co-bred by T.Azzolini), and other 3 were Gran Pamir offspring bred by Way Up Kennel (Kyber kids)... Way to go! The family is very proud :)
Not enough, we have good news from Kyber's kids! Huge congrats to the lovely "Shakka" (Only One Way My Way) who took 2 CC, Cacib, BOB & Group 3 at the back-to-back Spec & Int shows in Benevento! He needs only one more CAC to finish, after few outings in Italy. At the Int coursing held in conjuction the CACL went to Cloudless Rainbow del Gran Pamir & Res Cacil to Vain Jane... Congrats to owners!

... And what about us?! Well, we've been home relaxing, well sort of, let's say we are always too busy... Another VERY long break indeed! We'll see what the future holds :)

Though with no dogs of her own to show, Emanuela managed to successfully pilot a dog at this show once again, this time teaming up with and having the honour to show the lovely and sweet Greyhound "Pablo", bred/owned by Mr Roberto Posa (Ch). Thank You!
We had fun all over the weekend, and always present was the very moody Swedish weather! We spent a great time with friends, from the beginning right to the end when at night the last few of us left at the empty showground went bothering the owners of Sunday's BIS winner in search of a little party LOL - We hope to repeat the nice weekend soon!
... at the Congress and National Specialty in Lovudden/Sweden! Logo for the National features the Afghan in all its beauty and pride: our two charming Ladies "Venus" & "Tuuli", from a photo by Manu!

Once again, we'll be "road eaters" for the next couple of weeks, eating up miles through Europe to attend several nice Summer Shows as visitors. So, come up and say "hi" if you're either around the Afghan ring in Liege (Belgium), Mariefred (Sweden) or Donaueschingen (Germany)! We'll be either photographing or taping, but it'll be nice to catch up with friends :)
Have nice holidays, folks - welcome back to see some hundred pictures soon!

2007.... Another year has gone, and another has come! 2006 has been the quietest year for us (only) when it comes to showing. We were out in Italy only a couple of times, so we don't have that much to report but that "Tuuli" - Zoomin' Fairy del Gran Pamir was # 5 Afghan Bitch, out of two shows.
We'll see what the future holds, though we predict this to be another quiet year, as so far only judging trips and a possible litter are in the plans.
Anyway, it's time to brag about our dogs' offspring, who keep the GP fly high when we're not around. Kyber is so very proud of his successful kids: Vain Jane - # 2 Afghan Bitch (Specialty system) in Italy. Multiple CAC & CACIB and SBOS winner; CAC at Donauschingen '06 under Mr Wheeler; CH Limoncello Sweet Taste - Multi Group, BOB and CACIB winner; My Boy Lollipop - Multi LC-CAC winner in 2006; Only One Way My Way - CAC & CACIB winner; Here There N Everywhere - CAC winner, Spec. placings, now nursing her first litter. Congratulations to ALL dogs and their owners! See more at www.wayup.it.
And it's soon time to celebrate a very special birthday of a special gentleman! Freddie is soon going to have 14 candles on his birthday cake! And he looks better than ever, healthy and playful!
