Category Archives: Hounds  If you’ve worked your way through the paper on Icelandic Sheepdogs (ISD) from previous posts (part 1 and part 2), you ran into a mathematical technique called cluster analysis. It’s a little complicated, but basically it’s a way of grouping things by similarities in various traits. In the ISD paper, cluster analysis was used to…  Most dog photography is of dogs in “pet” mode.

After I returned to the States from South Africa in June 2003, one of the first shows I went to was the Hound specialty weekend in Lompoc, a little town near the coast of California midway between Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo.
