  About us    
 

Welcome to our homepage
In our home we have 2 Afghanbitches and one old Whippet. We live in the very south of Sweden. Madelene is borned into the Afghanbreed, raised up with dogshows and obediencecompetitions. As a young girl she competed in Junior Handling. She has had the honour to judge the Swedish Championship in Junior Handling 2004, and is still judging Junior Handling from time to time. Percy has always had dogs in his family, Great Dains and his own Affe. Now we have a little one, Viktor, and he likes dogs, but we think that his best dogs are Madde's brothers chihuahua "Gucci" and Viktor's grandma's chihuahua "My".

Madde is the one that goes to dogshows and CO-own several of the dogs with Elisabet Levén and Sven Westerblad. We show the dogs when we think they are ready and they only shows a couple of year each. Most of the time they are gorgeous homedogs.

My 7 best Junior Handlers in the older group.


My winner in the older group. Her America Coccer was also #2 Top Dog of all breeds.


My winner in the younger group.

Judging

I had the honour to judge Junior Handling on Iceland. I had the most beautiful and lovely days together with Auja and her family. On Friday I judged the Junior Handler, there were 37 enteries. They were devided into 2 classes, 10-13 and 14-17 y.o. It was really good to have these groups, in the first group I could write some critics and in the secons group I really had the chans to do some handling tests on them. My winner in the first group was a really easy handler who did everything right, and she was there to show her dog and to have a fun evening. My winner in the second group was also a very great handler, and very easy on her hand with her American Coccer. On Saturday and Sunday they had there INT KC show, they only have 3 during the year. It´s impressive to see how wellpresented the dogs are, both in handling and condition, due to the very few shows.
On Monday I had a handling-course. I´m so happy to see all the handlers training their dogs together and helping each other. That will make you to one of the best teams in the world I will think.

I want to congratulate Auja for Chelseas Championship (Ch Punapaulan Yasmine).

I also want to send all my best for the Junior Handling team going to Denmark to compete in Nordic Winnershow and also good luck to Thorpe (?) at Crufts.

Thank you all for a lovely weekend, you could be very proud of your Junior Handlers.

Highlights 2007

Ch Xciting Xtravagant Creation


Figge has been shown to KC-shows and 2 Sighthoundshows, no Afghanhound Specialties.
When you compete on the Top Dog Of All Breeds-list you need to rest some weekends.

On the Top Dog Of All Breeds-list (KC-list, Agria Cup) Figge achieved # 9 (of all breeds), # 2 (Sighthound) and the highest placed Afghanhound (# 1).

And on the top of this he was also # 1 Afghanhound male on the Afghan Of The Year-list.

During the year he also achieved one SBIS (Sighthound Specialty) and one All Breed BIS (Finland).

Thanks to Elisabet and Sven for Figges success!

  Jawahar history    
  Please follow this link for Jawahars breeding through the years 1963-1983

 


 
 

Agneta got her first afghan in 1958, her name was Sanhjara out of Tanjores Domino and by a son of Xenos v d OM.

Sanhjaras life was too short, she died one year of age to a sickness.

Then Agneta got Sikandra Darja, she was out of Ch Benares Baba Lou & by Ch Crown Crest Kaejorg.
 
Sikandra Darja was a multiple CACIB & CC winner, but didn't finish as a Champion. Agneta retired her from the show ring when she bought Tajmahal's Kenya II. She was out of Int. Ch. Tajmahal Nefertite & by Int Ch Talmahal Abd-ul Djari. 

Kenya II was very successful in the show ring, she became INT Nord Ch. and was one of Scandinavians most top winning bitches.
 
Sikandra Darja & Kenya II, were both bred, see more under history .

 
 
The most successful dogs came from the C- & D-litters (see history) , but Agneta's all time favorite of her own breeding was INT Nord Ch Jawahar's La Femme.

Another successful dog from Agneta was INT Nord Ch Jawahar's Dante, actually this was one of Elisabet Levéns first afghans. In 1970 Jawahar's Dante was Afghan hound of the year

In the early seventies Agneta imported a male from the US, his name was Fantasis Sportin Life out of Akabas Devil May Care & by Akabas Royal Ransom. Agneta wanted to bring in a new bloodline to incorporate in her breeding program.

Unfortunately Fantasis Sportin Life died at a young age due to a tick bite, therefore he only produced a few litters. We are proud to say that you can find him in the pedigree of Xciting afghans.
 
Due to family circumstances Agneta couldn't continue to breed afghans, her family and full time job as a nurse took up all her time.
At that time Agneta still owned some afghans and when her daughter Madelene turned 15 y.o. she bought her first afghan of her own, 
 INT  Nord Dk Ch Xciting Bullet The Blue Sky in co-ownership with Elisabet Levén. 
Although Agneta was not breeding anymore, she never lost her passion for the breed and could now follow the successful team from ringside.
 
 
Madelene was born into Kennel Jawahar. After having afghans around the house and showing them for others, Madelene really wanted an afghan of her own. For years she had traveled with Elisabet & Sven and competed in Junior Handling with their afghans.

Carina & Britt Ekwall at Kennel Xciting had a promising litter sired by Ch Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow and there he was, Frans, Ch Xciting Bullet The Blue Sky.
Frans was shown by Madelene and Elisabet and for some years he was one of Sweden's most top winning afghans.
He was a fantastic show dog, a real performer, but unfortunately Frans broke his leg and he was retired from the show ring after that.
 
Then the sweet sweet whippet, Cello, Airescot Cello joined the family.
 
 
 
After Frans the plan was to buy a new afghan, but Madelene wanted to wait until the right dog came along. It took some years, but finally Xciting made another interesting breeding and it was time again to look for another puppy.
His name is INT US Nord Dk EE Lat Ch Xciting Xtravagant Creation, Figge. He is co-owned by Elisabet and Sven and always shown by Elisabet.

Figge is one of Sweden's most top winning dogs of all breeds. We don´t like to campaign the same dog year after year, so more or less he has been shown every other year in Sweden.

Now that Figge was campaigned in Sweden by Elisabet. Madelene was offered to show one of Elisabet & Sven's Australian imports, the lovely bitch  INT Nord Dk Ch Gengala Just Like That , Olivia. For not to compete against each other, Olivia was mostly shown in Denmark and the southern part of Sweden.
 
Olivia did not enjoy dog shows from the beginning, but she learned to love it. Madelene and Olivia is a perfect match and it shows in the ring. After two years of showing Olivia, she has been Afghan of the Year and Afghan Bitch of the Year, along with winning Champions of Champions in Sweden, actually she is the first afghan ever to win this prestigious event.
Olivia is also a multiple Group 1st. winner and have won numerous BIS veteran. 
 
A couple of years ago Madelene bought another afghan, for the main purpose to start breeding in the Jawahar name again.
This bitch is a line breeding on Ch Yesterday, Today and Tomorrow, her name is Tash Kurgan End Of Story, Debbie.
She has been shown very little, but is only one CC away to complete her Swedish and Danish Champion title.
 
As you can tell we don´t have many afghans, the most important thing for us, is that the dog can be part of our family.  
 
What will the future bring ? Well, maybe Jawahar will have a litter from Debbie and Figge. Until then,  Agneta is still an active member of the afghan community and Madelene will do what she does best and love the most...showing dogs.

Cello is my homeboy, but he has been to some shows (he´s to big to many judges) and especially the breedjudges has seen his qualities. Winning BOS-puppy and a couple of year later winning OpenClass and 5´th Best Male at Skokloster is worth mention.

Otherwise he is the dog that always follow his owner. Even though he is 13 y.o. he is the dog that is in the front when we´re walking and when we going by car he always wants to come along.
