Azawakh Deep Cut

7 letters · 1 word · ~2s to type · 113 accepted answers on the sheet

Don't name the zoo animal a six-year-old would shout first. We would type Azawakh: Deep Cut, +85, 7 letters, about 2 seconds on a keyboard. Do not burn the 25 seconds on Bulldog, German Shepherd, Golden Retriever, or Labrador Retriever — those are Plankton. The trench answer is Lagotto Romagnolo (+100), but only take it if you can spell it cold.

Trench spelling, only if you already know it: Lagotto Romagnolo +100
