Elegance isn't improvised. It's selected.
Noblesse Canine breeds two of the oldest sighthound breeds in the world — the Saluki and the Afghan Hound. A deliberately limited number of litters, uncompromising selection, and puppies placed each year with a select few families.
Few litters. A great deal of rigour.
The Saluki and the Afghan Hound aren't breeds you multiply. They're bloodlines you preserve. Every pairing is planned months in advance: pedigree compatibility, health results from both parents, and a conviction that the litter deserves to exist.
We aren't trying to produce puppies faster than demand. We're trying to place each puppy with the right family — even if that means keeping others waiting.

Three commitments, for every puppy.
They apply to every litter we raise — no exceptions, no compromises.
Full screening before every pairing
Hips, eyes, heart and breed-specific genetic panels, on both parents, before any breeding takes place. You receive the full results, never a summary.
Raised at home, from birth
Early neurological stimulation, daily handling, gradual exposure to the world. A sighthound that is reserved yet confident isn't an accident — it's built from the first days.
A commitment beyond the sale
We remain present for your dog's entire life — questions, guidance, and we'll take them back if you're ever unable to keep them. A dog born here stays, in a sense, one of ours.
The Saluki and the Afghan Hound.
Two of the world's most ancient sighthounds, chosen as much for their history as their temperament: the Saluki, discreet hunter of Bedouin tribes; the Afghan Hound, a sovereign silhouette from the mountains of Central Asia.
We don't diversify further. Knowing two bloodlines well is worth more than skimming across ten.
From your first message to the ride home.
First contact
A form or a detailed email: your experience with sighthounds, your lifestyle, what you're looking for. We reply personally, never on autopilot.
Interview and visit
A conversation, then a visit to the House by invitation. You'll meet our adult dogs — their temperament will tell you more than any puppy photo ever could.
Selection and matching
A deposit confirms your place. Matching happens around week seven, based on the puppy's temperament and the reality of your household — never on a first-come basis.
Going home at ten weeks
Our puppies stay a little longer than average: ten weeks, for more complete socialization. They leave vaccinated, microchipped, examined, with papers and a full file.
A litter is expected in late summer.
Our puppies are almost always spoken for before they're born. If a Saluki or an Afghan Hound is on your mind this year, now is the time to start the conversation — even if your plans aren't settled yet.
