Distant Doggy Cousins

Thought people might like to see a couple of photos taken at the Greyhound Awareness League's Hot Dog Show on Saturday.

From left to right, a three year old Deerhound male, a five year old Wolfhound female (both held by their owner) and Tara, our Wolfhound-Deerhound cross (held by Andy). Tara's a bit further from the camera, so it's difficult to see, but she was taller than the wolfie. I like that this shows exactly how much she's half way between the two breeds.

And here's the girl herself...

Photos taken by the ever-talented Claire.

Tara does quite well at these shows - she's now picked up two first and one second prize from the four events she's been to, including "Best Youngster" here. Being larger and hairier than the other entrants seems to attract the judge's attention.
