Doggage 2: Tazi run (from Jutta)
Spectral Tazi
Pure silliness- phones in a dim room make for odd photos. Shiri, visiting, took this of our slightly simple Kyran being nervous in the kitchen.
More images; Tazis east of Turkey
If (as I think) “Tazi” and “Saluki” are linguistic rather than biological distinctions, reflected where Arabic turns to the Turkic and Persian tongues, the title is redundant.

Indian Tazi
A classic Indian miniature from this site, circa 1800, sent by Jess at Desert Windhounds. As Brett says, it is either the biggest tazi or the smallest handler EVER.
