Ruby & Manny Together

Manny is now eight years old and Ruby is 12 weeks old. He is the oldest purebred wire coat Podengo Pequeno in the United States and she is probably the youngest little smooth coat female, at least right now, February 4, 2009. They are wonderful playmates despite size and age differences -- he is 17 lb. and she is 6 lb. Both are smart, fast, and infinitely amusing!

Our first Podengo, Manny, America's first Podengo Champion, just turned 8. Our newest Podengo, Gus, is 3 months old. They are great playmates - both have a keen sense of fun that is so characteristic of the Portuguese Podengo!
Here are the oldest and newest Podengos in the pack - Manny, 8 year old Champion wire coat born in Portugal who came with us to the US in 2001 and his best friend Porto Novo's Gustava GObama, a smooth coat born here in Old Saybrook on Election Day 2008. Different coats, different weights, and best friends!
