Our local rare blacks , from Kazakh stock, tend to have white and tan marks on the front of their breasts; not like an Arabian "tanpoint", less anyway... a bit of inheritance from the taigan, their mountain cousin? Shakula says of such dogs that they "have the blood of the ancient dragon,"

Hi Steve,
The black dog in the first and last photos is a Persian X English bred saluki of Val and Steve Kaeppler.

Thanks Paul. I kept trying to imagine Warren's Lilly (who I have never seen!) but the dog was too damn BLACK-- no tan. Leggy, too. Persian will do it.
Oh my gods, that looks like fun. (Not that I mind bunny hawking with redtails...)
Superb photographs - a dream saved to enjoy again and again and again.
Lady With The Black Dogs
The photo of the merle dog with the gyr at its shoulder reminds me of a sight years ago when my lurcher was running along a mountain path, in a wooded area, and a wild, immature gos flew with her at her shoulder, pulling off after a bit. Just curious I'd guess, but a long remembered scene.
Some of the best shots of the coursing dogs and hawks together I've seen!....L.B.
