Hamish from Yorkshire |
Strictly speaking, Hamish is a cross-breed, but you certainly wouldn't know it to
look at him! His father was an Irish wolfhound and his mother a Scottish deerhound,
so we reckon that definitely makes him an honorary wolfhound, and in any
event, it's a lovely mix! Born on 16 October 2004, Hamish was 13-14 weeks old when these photos were taken, and lives near Harrogate with Heather and Nick Riley and their children, Olivia and Toby. He's growing at a rate of knots, and is a bundle of fun! |

The cushion says it all, "If you want the best seat in the house, move the dog."!! |
Hamish and Toby - best of friends! |
The big wet nose used for shoving up your nightie as you fill the kettle for your
morning cuppa! aaaargh!!!! |
Heather says that Hamish is a now huge part of the family, no pun intended, and is
certainly no shrinking violet! He is also developing the most amazing deep woof
. . . shakes the rafters! |

Hamish is doing great (apart from the wolfhound 'curse' of a persistent tail injury).
He's still making the family laugh every day, and they can't imagine life
without him. At three years old, he is maturing nicely, is a very good guard dog on the barking front, letting them know when anyone's about, but nice and friendly once he's been formally introduced. |
