Our first female Asta Kali came in our house in 1991. She dissented from excellent blood lines: Reata's, Chandigarhs, and Kabik's. She was Yu CH, and in 1995 she was the first to give a litter in our kennel. We mated her with Hurrican of Wameru, a male from Germany. Even though this mating was very promising for us, their owners wanted them more as pets and less as show dogs. Asta Kali died at 13 years of age, as gracefully as she had lived.
