Puppies planned in October

At last - we look forward to a new litter, following a long period of little or no breeding. Flinga is pregnant by  "Ozzie", Nord J(g) CH Smedsbackens Leonardo. He is a true dual purpose Border Terrier, a working Champion also holding a show CC. He is put to practical use in daily life, mainly at tracking wounded wildlife. We have had our eyes on him as a potential sire for years as we find him a truly classical Border Terrier in both temperament and looks, traits that he has also showed that he can pass on to his offspring.
Both parents-to-be are SLEM clear and have a lower than average mean kinship to the Swedish population (%MK sire 0.79, dam 0.55, average roughly 1), which means this litter will contribute to genetic variation. 
The litter will be the seventh generation Sagimus, starting with Sagimus Huldra born in 2000.

Celebrating 45 years as Border Terrier breeders 

"Raggan", SE o FIN U CH Raggata (posthumously given the prefix Sagimus) was born in March 1978. She was Åsa's teenage first shot at breeding, producing the Border Terrier type that we are still aiming for.
