Welcome to my website

My name is Debbie Gandee and I was a small show hobby breeder but I have retired from showing and breeding Afghans. My love is rescuing Afghan Hounds and finding them the best homes I can. I was always dedicated to preserving the Afghan Hound Standard while breeding a great show quality Afghan and Companion". I bought my first Afghan puppy in 1972 when I was just 17 years old and in the 11th grade. I called my new Afghan Hound puppy Topaz and she was brindle in color. I started showing Topaz in 1972 and then later I bought Sandpiper of Troy a black mask blonde male from California. Topaz was shown on and off for several years and was pointed but never liked showing. I retired her to a even better job at home, being my protector, companion, trouble maker and she excelled at all of those jobs. Topaz lived with me for 18 years and I will always remember her with great fondness. I want to dedicate these pages to Topaz and Piper who started my love for Afghans.
