How Well Do You Know Your Sighthounds?

Do you know pride yourself about your knowledge of dogs? Do you think you know what a sighthound is? Can you tell a sighthound from a scenthound from a working dog or a toy poodle?

This quiz is meant to be light fun (and sighthound owners will probably get a chuckle from a few of the answers) but, quiz-taker beware, it's only based on my own personal knowledge of sighthounds I've owned, coursed, shown or observed over the last 30 years.
