Fantik is our Finnish addition to the Zabava pack.  He is an absolutely adorable guy, with an unmatched personality, kindness, intellect, and sweetness.  We thank his wonderful breeders and friends Seija and Jari for this FANTASTIC boy. In his crowd-stopping presence, he reminds us of his great-grandsire Roosik (Am Can Ch Zabava Winter Palace CGC) but we see a lot of his Finnish heritage in him as well.  Fantik finished his American championship before turning one year old and started making his mark at specialties following that.  Most recently, he won the Puget Sound Borzoi Club Specialty under breeder-judge Shen Smith.  His other accomplishments include a SBOS at the BCNC in Pleasanton before he turned 18 months and an AOM at the 2015 BCOA National before his third birthday.   Most importantly, he is a wonderful companion and we absolutely adore him.  We are proud to say that Fantik sired a litter in California at Dendy Borzoi, belonging to our great friends Maggie and Joe Michael.  The dam of Fantik’s puppies is the gorgeous co-owned Liesl (Am Ch Zabava Jubilee Do-Re-Mi) who is a multiple specialty winner.  The puppies were born on September 9, 2016 – see our L Litter.
