Celebrity Hound

Fun grid and clever meta !! Good job, Cap'n Rick

Very nice! Saw two "groupings," wondered which was in play, realized I didn't have to choose!

Fun! Thank you.

Great puzzle -- nicely laid out.

Ha! Just 'Ha!'

Fun meta! The grid stymied me in multiple places though :-)

Took me a little bit to realize the right side was “hound” synonyms… since SAFARI and PURSUIT are also cars! very clever puzzle with no googling required… thanks!

I thought I'd be searching for dog breeds or names and was excited when I saw PUG backwards in 45D. The real mechanism was a lot more fun. Thanks, Rick!

Whoosh. Boy do I feel stupid. Thanks for the puzzle.

Excellent!! You'd think I'd have recognized the first "half" quicker, given a certain recent WSJ puzzle. But you'd be wrong LOL

Thanks for the fun puzzle!

Should have gotten it just from the cars in the grid!! Sometimes I make them harder than they are.

Fun puzzle. I got distracted by the other Chevrolets in the grid so it took a bit longer than it should have! Thanks a bunch.

Clever as always. Thanks Capn!

With the Chevys and MISS USA, solvers of a certain age might have been tempted to think the answer was Dinah Shore.

Fun one, thanks!

That was brilliant, and that was such a great a-ha. Well done!!

Late to the game because I was (ironically) on a "European Vacation". lol
