“Stuff is eaten by dogs, broken by family and friends, sanded down by the wind, frozen by the mountains, lost by the prairie, burnt off by the sun, washed away by the rain. So you are left with dogs, family, friends, sun, rain, wind, prairie and mountains. What more do you want?”

Beautiful dogs!
Are they tazis or COO salukis?
(Not much of a difference, I know)
Definitional blur.
Linguistically the names refer simply to the Arabic- Turkic east west divide. "Tribally" or regionally, they are Kazakh (Riss) and (Tavi), Kaz X Russian, I think Petrograd.
Which makes them "definitionally" tazis, and BY ALL SANE STANDARDS (which mean nothing) COO salukis as well.
Set "saluki"– arguably not the best term, as narrowly Arabic, but in use earlier in our culture– should because of that hisory embrace set "tazi".
OR: all tazis are salukis. Not all salukis are tazis…
Riss & Tavi are very beautiful, and appreciate one another as well. Are they from the same household? And who shares their house with them … I had not thought to think Tazi or Coo Saluki … I need to look again.

Scottie, Tavi is Nazgul's brother from another litter.
Saluki, Tazi, local names, local morphology, variations on a theme.
No matter the singer, the *song* remains the same.
They sure make a strong looking pair. Gorgeous.
Tempting, suddenly (;-)
ANOTHER Lane???? That's NOT me, but I agree with what that Lane said, too….L.B.
Both Lane B, even, but this one is in NM (with fine hounds) and is female…
