The Podengo Has Landed!
He's been here for about 8 days now, actually! Introducing him to the greyhound pack was a LOT easier than we thought it would be. They all pretty much sniffed each other and went about their business. Hubby and I are absolutely enamored with this breed. Marco is everything we wanted and more! Different from the greyhounds but equally as lovable and wonderful. I'm sure Marco will be the first of many Portuguese Podengo Medios to share our home over the years.

Pics!

Snuggling w/Daddy and playing with Rocky


We started doing some work with the short lure pole & a stuffie...he loves it!

BIG GRIN! hehehehe....I was telling Ken that I really think this breed will be popular among other dog owners once they are better known - they are so smart and thoughtful...and *very* in tune with their humans. He seems to sense when we are going to be up and about, he'll perk up. But when we settle in to watch TV or work, he curls up in our lap or by our feet. Just enough energy to be playful and fun, but doesn't have to go-go-go 24/7. I am trying to find an agility place around here b/c I think Marco will be awesome at it - thinking and exercising at the same time!

We're gonna need more podengos coursing to get them recognized by ASFA as an "official" breed! Right now they are a provisional breed, which means they can compete in the Limited Stake, but can not run for Best in Field against the other dogs. My personal goal is to get them accepted by ASFA before the breed is even recognized by the AKC *fingers crossed* (of course, it's a LOT easier to get ASFA recognition LOL).
