A Silken Welcome
The United Kingdom Silken Windhound Club was initiated in 2010 and is delighted to have breed founder, Francie Stull (Kristull) as our Patron. We hope you will spend some time to look around this site and get to know our Silken Windhounds.
In February 2005, the first Silken Windhound to arrive in England was Fira (Starcastle Hounds Firefly), a pale cream girl who came from Sweden. Fira was bred by Sussi Sternjbourg of Starcastle Hounds, a founder member of The International Silken Windhound Society (ISWS)
