depends on your terminology
to me, a dog like this, whether it be smooth or hairy can be called a roo dog or a staghound, yes hairy dogs are normally called staghounds, but i will call them either, as they are one and the same, u can get smooth and hairy out of the same litter so why should they have to be called any different?
dont know about the beardie in it, they are normally made up of deer, grey and wolf, some have borzoi in them. from what ive been told this guys dogs go way back, his father had the line over east and they brought it over here.
you can definately see the iri
