Btw I found it interesting that you used the word “primitive” since that is how I often describe our Formosan mixes ( from Taiwan).
They are.
I also have a Portuguese Podengo Medio who was part of a very expensive and difficult cross-country rescue.
I and members of the Ibizan Hound parent club held an auction of donated art for her and her sister’s adoption expenses and plane fare.
She’s even more primitive than the Ibizans.
She also starts all the trouble, here.
She’s a shameless instigator.
Probably why we get along so well.
