Born November 30, 2021
Sage was one of the most promising puppies from our H litter. Beautiful, vivacious and extremely outgoing, she also had the temperament to succeed in just about anything.
She was originally placed, but that placement was not suitable for her. We exercised our right to take her back in December 2022. . Since then, we have worked hard to rehabilitate her physically as well as mentally and emotionally. She has enjoyed trick dog and agility classes, walks, and lots of positive socialization around town with her human and Sloughi family and friends. She has a particular affection for her father, Itri, and loves to rough house with him, and for her brother, Hendrix, who has become her best friend.
Sage is OFA CHIC registered, No. 188853. She is OFA CAER Normal, PRA Clear, OFA Adv. Cardiac Normal.
When Sage returned, I didn’t know if she would ever recover enough to be comfortable to return to the show ring. With extensive work, she finished her AKC Championship on June 29, 2025. The rest of her life will be filled with positive experiences and never again will she be pushed beyond her limits. We love her dearly.

A Happy Ending
On October 18, 2025 Sage went Best of Opposite Sex (to her father GCHB Itri Ocerico BCAT FITB) at the American Sloughi Association National Specialty. But she wasn’t done there! Sage added Best in Specialty Show to her resume, winning an American Sloughi Association designated specialty under judge Barbara Carol Scherer and then further adding to her record by winning her first AKC Hound Group placement, a Group 3 under sighthound breeder judge Amy Sorbie!
We are awfully proud of how this gorgeous girl has bounced back and how well she is doing. Sage is the only Sloughi to have defeated her father, Itri, at the breed level since he became a champion.
