My Hounds

SightHoundShowDogs · 11-19-2007, 08:39 PM

I love sighthounds and my Fiancee and I own 8 yes count them 8 lol. And I am pretty suspictious of my fiancee he seems to have the puppy bug. Anyways I compete actively in confirmation with them all or some are in training and in the Rookie phase. Also a few of them compete in coursing for fun and agility. I am 35 and cannot have children so I can devote my life to my dogs. Of course im not under the dillusion that they are children.

I was raised around Afghan Hounds and the dog show atmosphere. And so the biggest part of my heart belongs to that breed. But I do love any Sight Hound especially lol. My digital camera was smashed a month ago in a car accident. So until I am no longer cameraless I can't post pics. But as soon as I can I will I promise I love to show off my hounds.

Anyways the breeds I own are.......

Pepper- 1 year old Domino colored female Afghan Hound.

Maddona (Maddie)- 4 year old cream colored female Afghan. Our Diva lol.

Fabio- 3 year old shaded mask red male Afghan.

Captain- 6 year old Blue colored male Afghan

Twix- 6 month old feathered Grizzle colored male Saluki

Smiley- 2 year old feathered red colored female Saluki

Holiday- 4 year old male Pharoah Hound

Zebee- 5 year old blue brindle female Borzoi

So who else here has Sighthounds and who has atleast one of my breeds?

Can't wait to see pictures when you get a camera!

I don't have sighthounds, but I have hounds! I have 7 dachshunds, 1 chihuahua (Not hound), 2 rat terrier mixes (One mixed with rat terrier/chihuahua, the other italian greyhound mix), 1 toy Australian shepherd mix, and a dachshund mix.

You are now one of my favourite people on GP!

I LOVE sight hounds, especially Borzoi, but Afghan Hounds are stunning animals too. I'm going to sit hear very impatiently until I see pictures. LOL

Anyone got a spare camera they can donate to sighthoundshowdogs?

Oh and Welcome to Global Paw!

Welcome! I have an Irish Wolfhound, Darby. We don't compete, he is a companion dog. I will be adding another IW to my family in a few months hopefully.

Someday I'll stop being lazy & post some photos of Darby.

Awwww! I am a huge sighthound fan! I love all sighthounds,but greyhounds are my babies.

I do not have my own dog,but I do foster rescue greyhounds and beagles (I know they are not sighthounds...but they are still hounds).I am a dedicated volunteer with Beagle Paws and GPAC (Greyhound Pets of Atlantic Canada).I will eventually adopt my own greyhound,but for now I am just as content with fostering.

I also really love borzoi! But all sighthounds are beautiful!
