ROY BOY, again

Here's a picture of our "Best Puppy in Match" that I blogged about a week or so ago. He's one of the very few Otterhounds in the country. There is a dedicated group of folks keeping this breed's interest up. From the AKC page-->"The Otterhound is a large, rough-coated hound with an imposing head showing great strength and dignity, and the strong body and long striding action fit for a long day's work. It has an extremely sensitive nose, and is inquisitive and perseverant in investigating scents. The Otterhound hunts its quarry on land and water and requires a combination of characteristics unique among hounds--most notably a rough, double coat; and substantial webbed feet."
BIG dogs, (100+ pounds) they are and very much the "hound". Imagine a group of English chaps out w/ a whole "herd" (pack!!) of these out cruising the countryside!! What the heck do you suppose out friend Roy, here, is going to do w/ all that TAIL??!!!
