This page offers something very special - two RARE movies of the Original Afghan Type as bred by Eta Pauptit, Vdom Afghan Hounds, Holland back in the 1930's. Our Dear friend Fleur Schopman (fschop@dds.nl) arranged to transpose the original home moves into the digital format and kindly made them available to us to post here for your enjoyement. RARELY do we see such valuable "moving pictures" of our breeds foundations. These two videos below are truly wonderful and precious. Thank you Fleur for sharing them with us all.
And there is even more to come. This is just a start page, we have dozens of photoraphs provided by Fleur, and the pedigree and the writings by Fleur herself. As of today( 8th June 2011) we are starting out with the two videos We will post all this other exciting material soonest.
