  • The Afghan Hound
    YOU BE THE JUDGE By Robert Cole From Dogs in Canada, December 1988 THE AFGHAN HOUND Three of these six Afghan Hounds are real life Group winners; in fact, two are Best in Show winners. These three serve to illustrate certain characteristics which set the breed apart. They also serve to illustrate three personal type preferences. You can, but it is not necessary that you correctly identify which three are the real life winners. The other three are graphic departures based on the real life Afghans. Two represent departures from the official CKC description and one represents a departure from depicted reality towards the worded ideal. Combined with reality, these three also help formulate an image of perceived ideal. You be the judge. Let’s pretend they are all real life Afghan Hounds and this is their first show. They are competing in the Open Dog class. To minimize distractions I have given them all a short, closer saddle (a traditional breed characteristic) over beige without any white (white markings especially on the head are undesirable). Select a first place, a second place, a third place and a fourth place. FIRST PLACE Based on a breed standard which calls for: “Height at the shoulders to equal the distance from the chest to the buttocks,” I would have to go with Dog A. This Afghan Hound’s height to length in profile must be close to ideal, however, it is not one of the BIS or Group winners. Dog A is one of the imaginary examples. Dog A is actually real life Dog C with a piece taken out of the centre of his body equal to the width of the back of the hand illustrated supporting his tail.

If he got a little cold, he just had to burrow down to the bottom of the pile and he was warm. If he got a little lonesome, there were always plenty of siblings around for comfort. Things are different now that he is removed from his canine companions.
