young Azawakh...hanshee k'nai in Djerma...
...literally "sighthound-little". In the Djerma language there are no distinct words for very young animals....they are just 'little' versions of adult animals. I like that. Another example of this terminology would be how k'nai, 'cow-little'.
The little one is Tahatmellet and the older two are the three month old brothers Amassakoul and Ayur-kimer. Amassakoul is co-owned by Mimi Cary Drake, CA. Al hamdullilah.
