The following will need little comment, but it is unusually illustrative. The little red tazi with the gray face is Larissa, an Almaty dog in origin, Ataika’s daughter and we hope the next mother- to- be. The cream male is Tavi, the intended father, a mix of Kazakh genes and Russian. What to notice is …

Doggage
More relatives; Daniela’s boys in part, Shunkar, showing the permanent damage the rattler did; thank God he did not lose an eye. Then, Monnie’s new pups, from John B and Vladimir; sweet Kyra, Tigger’s daughter, with her GSD protector Eden, and (the little red) feisty Aeris, Taika’s neice and already a tiny tyrant who knows …

Multicolor, smooth and feathered, Kazakh & Arab; all progenitors hunters: the ultimate Silk Road US litter! I am tempted by the little brindle girl and the feathered tri(s?), …
Uhlan: Tazi Self -Esteem
My old friend David Zincavage has a blog featuring his patented brand of ferocity and political opinion (see “Never Yet Melted” in blogroll) but when writing on his own canine companions to his friends he is at his funniest. Here he is on Uhlan, who, it will not surprise you to know, is Ataika’s nephew: …
