With the loss of my beautiful Tervueren ‘Bacchus’, I decided I needed a new challenge in my life – a new breed that was also elegant, beautiful to look at, and that I had always admired.
I love the Afghan hound – its breath-taking beauty, arrogance, aloofness, flowing silky coat, and amazing array of colours – but, as with the Tervueren, not the breed for everyone.
