Huck is the “waiter” dog with the long legs and wiry face. You can see him in the very first shot, on the right side of the man. He’s a wire Portuguese Podengo medio. (Podengo Português, médio de pêlo cerdoso.) His parents are Portuguese, he was born in the USA in 2006 and is registered with AKC/FSS as Parrigi’s Acaso Preto. He’s trained and handled by Mike Milliotti in CA and was bred by Eve Parris at PARRIGI HOUNDS in AZ.
