Dear visitor!

This is a short version of our homepage about our charming RR-girls Azima Nyota kwa Afrika and Makalali's Amazing Makena. And about our small kennel Makalali’s, located in Bochum / Germany.
Makalali means a place of peace and rest in the shangaan language – what will puppies think about this meaning?

Azima Nyota kwa Afrika

Our first beloved bitch is Azima, bred by Birgit Brüger in a small kennel near Hamburg / Germany. Azima means talisman and wonder in swahili and she really means both to us.

Azima's activities

Even as a little puppy Azima was adventurous and curious to learn new things. We did a lot of dog training together.

She loves to retrieve dummies! And of course she loves her long daily walks to meet friends, to play "catch me if you can", to check rabbits and squirrels, and to search for mice. It's a pleasure for her to accompany the horse. We also do some obedience training.

A-Litter

We had our first litter on June 9th 2005 from the mating of

and got 5/7 beautiful, healthy puppies. One of them stayed with us:

Makalali's Amazing Makena

Makena means the lucky one  - in double sense of words. First of all because she's the one to stay home with her mother Azima. Secondly because she's of a sunny, joyous temperament.
Makena is a bold little whirlwind, always in good mood, and funny, even after waking up early in the morning.
