Qashani Thaqib an-Nazar - 'Noki'
Born 30.5. 2006
Owned by Johanna Männistö

Now called Noki, this little rascal started out with the pet name Nalle Puh (Winnie the Pooh). Like his siblings he was born rear paws first, and when he was halfway out he decided to speed things up by placing those paws firmly on both sides of his mom's vulva, pushing to get out faster! He looked like Pooh stuck in the rabbit hole, thereby the pet name ;D

Noki shares his home with his owner Johanna, Lauri and their Afghan Hounds Rasmus and Chocobo, and loves to sleep on top of Rasmus, and rough-housing with Chocobo. As in birth, he's always been in a hurry to explore, not letting any obstacles stand in his way. He was the first to climb out of the whelping box, and the first to get onto the couch, and this trend continues in his new home, where no manner of doggy gates will contain him! Still, these talents have served him well in agility classes ;)

Noki will hopefully sire puppies in the summer of 2009 - his intended mate is Qashani Nujaima al-Hasa. For more information see Planned Litters.
