Why Lightning?
Who we are?
Greetings! I'm Valerija Sai, the proud breeder behind the Lightning Kennel. My journey with animals of all shapes and sizes began early, but it took a remarkable turn in December 2010 when an extraordinary dog was born. Two months later, a little basenji puppy joined our family, marking the beginning of an incredible
journey.
Marsi, our beloved Basenji, who is an International & Multi Champion, Multi
Winner, and now a Multi Veteran Champion, not only led me to a new world
but also conquered the hearts of our entire family. Now, 13 years later, we're enjoying
life with four Basenjis – Marsi (13 years old), Kira (9 y.o.), Puma (7 y.o.), and the
energetic tail-wagger, Adam (2 y.o.).
Our activities range from conformation shows, lure coursing to obedience training and canicross. However, beyond the competitions, our dogs are cherished members of our family, often found lounging on the couches for most of the day.
I am an active member of the National Club for Primitive Breeds (N.C.C.P.S.S.K., a member of Latvian Cynology Federation, LKF). "Into Lightning" has been an FCI-registered kennel since 2014.
Our philosophy
We follow strict principles with breeding, keeping, and showing dogs. Our dogs are family members first and show dogs second. They live in our house, sleep in our beds, and get proper physical and mental
exercise every day.
My breeding priorities are health and a friendly, calm temperament. Elegance,
correct square proportions, and tireless, free movement is what I am looking for in basenji.
While raising puppies we are paying attention to proper socialization, puppies get basic
training and meet a lot of people of different ages, and they are introduced to different
sounds and floorings. This all gives a wonderful foundation so they become dogs, who are
a pleasure to live with. All our puppies receive LKF/FCI pedigrees, pet passports and
I feel responsible for each puppy born under Lightning kennelname.
