Hazard from Norfolk |
"To tell you all about Hazzie would take us a lifetime . . . Our first wolfhound, and to say he was a teacher of all things canine is not strictly true. He thought himself above most canines and therefore human. He was tatty and a total swamp dog. He was exhausting and stubborn beyond belief. Intelligent and independent to the point of snobbery. Comical, persistent and affectionate when it suited. A real champion of the underdog but hater of bullies. A companion of extreme expression and a defender of our lives against hedgehogs!!!!( He would go nuts if he saw one!) Never ill but always injured. A prolific hunter and this is what he lived for. A phenomenal exerciser finding sleep a necessity rather than pleasure. Lived life on the edge when he could escape the watchful eye of us, his neurotic owners. A rogue, a king, an irreplaceable pain in the backside. There will never be another Hazzie puppy. He was our life. If there is a Rainbow Bridge, he will be sat underneath it in the skanky water waiting for everybody's pet furries to cross over . . . with devilish intent . . . rather like the Troll in the fairytales!"
