Top whippet breeders in Iceland 2024

It is a true honor for our Eldthoka  breeding to be included in the Icelandic Kennel Club's list of the highest-ranking breeders in Iceland for the 7th year in a row. This would not have been possible without the support and cooperation of many people, such as the people who own dogs from us, the people who have helped us show the dogs Without foreign and Icelandic breeders who have sold us dogs, this would not have been possible. Many thanks to all of you. The picture is of our very best Álfadísar Drauma Dagbjörtu (þoka) & Mossbawnhill Glory Bound (Eldar)

BIS 4
C.I.B., ISJCh, ISCH NORDICCH Pendhar Preston became the 4th best dog of the show today, the last show of the year and the last show that Preston participates in (maybe again as a veteran who knows) It was fitting to show Preston under the Norwegian judge Arne Foss but Preston came from Norway and was bred by Ingunn Ohrem & Hanne Thorkildsen. Preston is a lovely pet and a great representative of the breed. You get a dog like this once in your life. It wasn't just Preston who did well at the show, his daughter ISCH NORDICCH Eldþoku Glæta was the best of the opposite, his granddaughter ISCH NORDICCH Eldþoku Sýrop was the third best bitch, Eldþoku Coco and Eldþoku Hlýja both got excellent. Southpoint Oscar was the best youngster of the breed and became junior champion.

These lovely puppies were born July 19th 2023 , we may have one female available
