Scottish Deerhound snaps up ‘best in show’

NEW YORK (AFP) – A stately looking Scottish Deerhound beat the breed favored by President Barack Obama and a crowd pleasing Cocker Spaniel to snap up top dog honors at New York’s Westminster Kennel Club Dog Show.
While waiting to watch an old SNL show (dated 12/10/2010), we watched our local news channel 11 @ 11 (NBC News). The last news segment of the night was a bout a dog show. And the news reported mentioned this particular dog breed has shoulders that measure around 32 to 33 inches in height.
Upon hearing that double digit number of 33, I decided to share that tidbit here on my weblog site. Perhaps, the “fellow brothers” like to put on a good show among dogs.
Scottish Deer-hound:
The Scottish Deer-hound, or simply the Deer-hound, is a breed of hound (a sighthound), once bred to hunt the Red Deer by coursing.
Notice the word “Scottish”, which precedes to the word “Rite”. And lots of deer in mythology surrounding the word “deer” from “Deer-hound”.
