Masha Shaverneva has sent us the following regarding the agility career of Altai:
“Altai won silver Agility Warrant back in August, just months after gaining his bronze, and can now use title AW(S) after his name. He remains the first Saluki in the UK to win an agility warrant.
 
I am very excited and proud to report that Altai (Qazal Sarbaz Har Kala Rachi) has qualified for the semi-finals of Crufts Novice ABC semi-final to be held at Discover Dogs in London. He will compete with 15 other ABC dogs for his chance to be among the top 8 going forward to the finals at Crufts 2022.  ABC stands for anything but collie and this year working Labrador, German and Belgian shepherd, Vizsla, Weimaraner and Bearded collie are breeds that qualified for the semi-final this year.
 
This Altai’s 3rd time at Discover Dogs in London. He manned the saluki breed stand back in 2018 and then competed in agility KC Starters Cup in 2019.  Please keep your fingers and paws crossed for our jumping and agility run on Sunday November 21st.”
