ABOUT US
The Miniature Dachshund "bug" infiltrated our family when my youngest son
requested one of these.He wanted a dog that he would be able to pick up and carry around himself. His 4 years older brother then also wanted one and Dad bought the third one.
My first ever Chihuahua was given to me by my parents on 23/12/73. Unfotunately she was killed by a car in our own yard, early in 1974. On 11/5/74 Kalinka and Natasha entered my life. They were the inspiration for me to start SANDIRNIEU chihuahuas. In 1979 I started showing both long- and smooth coated chihuahuas. From 1979 to 1985 I won 73 x CC's, 57 x RCC's and 63 x BOB's with long coat chihuahuas. With the smooth coat chihuahuas it was 39 x CC's (of these one was a 2 pointer), 62 x RCC's and 14 x BOB's
Due to circumstances I had to stop showing and later sell my breeding stock in the 1980's In 2008 my circumstances changed and I could, together with my daughter, restart breeding and showing chihuahuas, whilst she opted to start showing her Irish Wolfhounds. This is when SANTITIA KENNELS came on the scene.
We decided to get our first gentle giant , an IRISH WOLFHOUND when we had our first child. We wanted to bring him up in a dog friendly home. Of course in due coure, raising a child in a dog friendly environment meant he wanted a dog of his own at the age of three, and since a giant of 80 kg is not suitable we decided on a perfect fit for him - a Jack Russell.
