Multi BISS Am. Ch. Awn Firuza IsadoraDuncan
"Isadora"
born 4 May 2004
black fringed fawn bitch
Bred by Diane Divin of Awn Salukis and Ingrid Romanowski of Firuza Salukis
Isadora was my dream Saluki come true, she took my breath away in her beauty and perfection. There will never be another Saluki in my heart and in my dreams like her. She was a special gift and I will always be eternally grateful that God granted me at least the 5 years I had her.

Critique: "A truly classic bitch… very feminine head with true Saluki expression, correct bite with strong underjaw, excellent muscle condition, this was so evident when you watched her move, as thee was so much power visible when she moved around the ring, her side action was a joy to watch, as each footfall fell in the correct position every time and her topline remained strong with no evidence of sagging or flatness. This bitch has so many attributes that it is very difficult to criticize her."
