Silken Windhounds  

  

Whats in a name, Aeracura

Aeracura, pronounced air- a- Cure- a, is the name of a Celtic goddess. The Goddess of blossoming, rebirth, and rediscovering.

This has much symbolic relevance to myself, my life and this new breed of dogs.

Going through a bit of rebirth myself, remaking my life in almost every way. Recently divorced, going back to school and raising my children, these last few years have been quite difficult. Though, through the hard times something beautiful blossoms.

In relation to Silken Windhounds, they are a fairly new breed and everything about the breed and the people involved are beautiful passionate flowers blossoming, in a wide field of wild flowers. On close inspection each has its own role of beauty, but together on at a wide angle view, they fit together so wonderfully it takes your breath away.

  

  

Silken Windhounds are a small to medium sized sighthound. My experience with them has been a wonderful one. They are great companions and they also have great drive on the field. I have two children and they are super patient with the kids and loving with them. 

I have 2 beautiful male Silken Windhounds. Monk was the first Silken to join our home. He has impressed me in all ways. His temperament is the best I have seen, and he is an ambassador for the breed. He is sweet and funny and will greet anyone with wags and wiggles. Dakar on the other hand is more cautious but spirited and joyful, while sweet and loving one on one.  

They are apart of our small family and every bit apart of our lives and hearts. To me, there is no better companion.
