Latidos Podencos, Azure and Argent version

Azure: a warren hound parado statant Argent; a base hearty Argent.

Escudo de azur: un podenco parado de plata; la campaña encajada de corazones de plata.

Coat of arms that I have created as follows: the shape of the shield is pointed and rounded; the field in flat tincture Azure; the warren hound and the base hearty are illuminated Argent and delineated Sable; and the whole has a roughened finish.

Etymology of the hearty line

In [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 79, fourth paragraph from the beginning] we are told that «no fixed idea can be formed about the origin and representation of these figures» «encajadas» «in Armory, since the» different «authors do not agree in their opinions for a complete understanding», or comprehension, «of them; nor can one derive their proper name, for each author explains it with different words and terms». And he continues on the next page, [Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 80, second paragraph from the beginning], stating that «We shall call them, as has been said, encajadas or emanchadas, which are the common terms by which they will be better understood, and which many use in Blazon for the resemblance that the figure has to the fitting of a wedge» and, indeed, the hearts form such a fitting, the upper ones with the lower ones, appearing difficult to separate.

Where is the charge in a hearty line?

[Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 80, third paragraph from the beginning] clarifies that «the field of the first partition is understood as the one occupying the upper part of the shield, the lower part, or base, being considered the piece» and, in this case, the base is the piece; therefore, it is to be blazoned as «...Azure... the base hearty Argent».

I have created the seal of the shelter Latidos Podencos based on its coat of arms.

[Avilés, J.; 1780a; page 79, third paragraph from the beginning] writes that «Encaxadas, or emananchadas», from the French «émanche», and in English sometimes rendered as «emanche» and other times described as «line of», refers to «those partitions of the shield whose pieces fit one into another in the form of thick and elongated triangles, which are usually one-third of the length or width of the shield, depending on the direction in which these figures are placed in a per pale, per fess, per bend, or per bend sinister division, etc. But when it is a chief, they have half the base and the rest pointed; and if it is a fess, it is formed by alternating triangles filling it entirely». This description corresponds to the most general form of the «encajado», although there may be other ways to position it —in this case, in the base— and other types of «encajado» depending on the figures represented, such as those made of fir trees, Latin crosses, or, as in this case, of hearts.
