It was one Sunday morning in January 1991, when having the coffee and reading the newspaper, we got an idea to have an own dog. There was not any specified idea about the breed, just a couple of alternatives. The dog will be either black long coated Chihuahua or black Tibetan Spaniel. The colour was an important criteria. There in the newspaper we found one add concerning Tibetan Spaniel litter and another was a Chihuahua puppy. Calling to both places and visiting them already in the afternoon.
It was a disappointment to find both of them having not black puppies, but the only not reserved Tibbie puppy, light sable girl, she was charming. She was the smallest in the litter, but she was brave coming to lick our fingers. The breeder of this litter, Mrs. Aili Huuhtanen, made us impressed bringing her sweetheart sitting on the decorative pillow from the bed room for us to see. Aili was explaining very detailed the diet of the puppies. Her puppies had never been eating any industrial food. The honourable breeder is cooking herself the food to puppies. We were thrilled. Lulu left with us, in spite of her coat colour, and was changing our lives in a definitive way. That we did not know that day, indeed.
This was the start of Arundina Kennel.
