Added a couple of new links on the sidebar. Definitely worth a look as we try to be less sighthound-centric here at the Hare-Brained Express. Patrick Burns has working terriers. He posts sometimes witty, sometimes scathing commentary on all things dog, and other related subjects. He's recently had a couple terrifically entertaining posts on the show dog - working dog dichotomy.
And because gun dogs need representation, too, we have Andrew Campbells Regal Vizsla. He has puppies, too. When you're tired of looking at Galgo Espanol puppie pictures here, click on over to Regal Vizsla and see how the puppies are progressing there! (But for the life of me, I can't imagine why, with a name like Andrew Campbell ,the man doesn't have Scottish Deerhounds!). Andrew also enjoys cycling, and actually admits to being a University of Michigan grad! Welcome.
Since 2009, the retirement home of Shot On Site Photography... the source of the finest sighthound performance images in the world. As of August 1, 2022, the blog will become much more photo-centric. Not only will I post images from the homestead in the foothills of the Little Florida Mountains, and surrounding environs, but also tips about shooting, editing, archiving, software, hardware and more. The political rants will become few and far between (but not eliminated! It is 2022 after all!)
Who knew I'd get such a plug -- and a minor ribbing -- after just one comment? Anyways, I am Scottish, too -- and was very interested in the pics of your Scottish deerhounds. I'll be honest and say that I'd never seen them before.
ReplyDeleteI did dog-sit an Irish wolfhound for a week. Watching that dog run through the woods was like being transported back in time. And for his incredible size, he really was an incredible sweetheart.
We do love our dogs. Such great companions and wonderful field dogs. If the wee one turns out to be anywhere near the bird-dog his older 'brother' (they're actually cousins) is, we're going to have a lot of fun.
Looking forward to seeing your Vizsla pics.
best wishes
