Misty Anderson and her four Irish Wolfhounds

Misty was taking her four Irish Wolfhounds for a walk the other night. We stopped to ask if we could take a picture. She graciously agreed. She said she often walks her wolfhounds in Ocala's downtown square and had recently done the same in The Villages. Needless to say, the dogs are a great attraction. They are beautiful animals. Also kind and obedient!

They are gorgeous, but wow - four has got to be handful, to say nothing of the food and vet bills.

Love it when people are able to fill in the blanks on some of our blog posts. Great the Soggy Bottoms Computers got back to you, fun to know the story.

What beautiful dogs. I have to admire Misty for walking all four at once. They must be well behaved or else she might need roller skates to keep up.

RedPat said...

Wow - if they ever see a cat, look out Misty. That is a lot of dog to be walking at once. I notice that she has halties on 2 of them and a big chain on another so there must have been a few incidents! They are really beautiful.

They are handsome dogs, but I would hate to pay their feed bills!

You forgot 'huge' in your description. I wonder what Misty would do if a cat came by.

Randy said...

She must be a strong woman and having four of them, wow.

Rajesh said...

Excellent shots. They are all ready for the action.

Misty said...

They are very well behaved babies and thankfully for me they like cats. LOL
Gentle leaders are my friend they really don't pull but just in case they ever decided to, I want to have a really good hold on them. Thanks for all the wonderful comments and what a wonderful picture you took of us thank you.

Bergson's comment just cracks me up.

I like the light in their eyes.

They all appear to be focused on something to your left? Great shot!

i imagine her with several big, comfy sofas at her house and always a dog to curl up with.

Looks like they could pull her around instead of her walking them.

Judy said...

What a sight they are! Such a wonderful breed of dog. And a beautiful picture too!

Pat said...

Oh, such eyes. I love these dogs. And she looks like a lovely lady.

What a great shot, Lowell! Fantastic.

I love these dogs. Breeders are also here. I recently met with one. Wolfhound is very cuddled. They are affectionate and yet inspire respect. Great photos. Congratulations. Regards Peter

Kate said...

And, they are enormous!! Cannot imagine anyone owning four of them. Magnificient,but so time consuming.

EG CameraGirl said...

Two of them have nose halters so maybe they are not ALWAYS obedient. :)
