Kennel Charlotte'russe

Kennel Charlotte'russe is run by Synnöve Sevón and her daughter Charlotta Sevón. This is a small kennel in the southwest part of Finland. We are situated in Masku which is a community near the harbour city Turku. We live in Kaarninko surrounded by fields and forest. On the left you see 5 borzois going about in Kaarninko forest.
We got our first borzoi in 1991 and fell in love with the breed. It was a red and white bitch from kennel Margiitan; INT & FIN & S & EST CH Margiitan Huhtikuunhuumaa. She was a beautiful and playful dog, and her half-sister Margiitan Ödelia Özbaazia joined our family soon after. These two wonderful borzois taught us everything about this remarkable breed. They are the reason why we today almost can't imagine a life without borzois.

We started breeding in 1993 but the first Charlotte'russe-litter was born in 1995. Our aim is to breed personal and sound minded borzois, that are both beautiful as well as good, strong working-dogs. This breed was originally bred as hunting-dogs, a quality which must never be forgotten or disappear.
