glad to be able to help ,I still can't work out no 66

No.66 - I know someone keeps saying an anagram of the first two words but I didn't get anywhere with that. I have an answer but not sure that it's right. They are German dogs, missing an 'O' which I took to express pointless.

lady bee. re 66. Anagram 'a pointless' in Chambers word wizard. there is a word beginning with S then Chambers Dict. that word.
Appreciate help with 60. a slender, out of sorts artist painted this aubject with dignity. please

winnie - I've never used Chambers Wizard before. If I've come up with your word, two things occur to me. First it's a cat and I thought we were looking for a mongrel, a dog. Then mostly it seems to be written as two words.

Re 60. This is an anagram of the first two words which will give you a painter. Dignity and ???? form the subjects of one of his paintings.

lady bee. I think 'mongrel' refers to ,anagram' of the first two words. Author of quiz has used some unusual words indicating anagrams this time . I thought the word was written as 1 word not 2. Thanks for help with 60 - will work on it.

final 3 needed any clues will be gratefully appreciated

18. R for Rottweiler? (3, 6)

30. Kid is heading for row. taking in stray dog. (3,7)

39. Youth is is taken aback in the capital to see small leopard! (8)

18. Look in the dictionary at the very beginning of the R words.

30. Kid is not human; row is not argument; stray is a verb

39. Short word for youth, written backwards and inside a popular capital city. It will give an animal you've probably not heard of!

Talking of last ones, mine are: No.61 Camera came out to get revolutionary hunter who uses scent... (5) I was thinking a film title/character..

65. Greatly admired man retired after drink and then became a devoted person (6) Completely foxed by this one.

Any hints at all please?

thanks lady bee

61. take came out of camera add first name of famous revolutionary

65. the answer is printed in one of the other questions in the quiz, devoted canine

Thanks for your help squizball. Actually I had tried previously taking came out of camera but it didn't lead me anywhere but now I have it.

Re 65 - if you are pointing me towards the penultimate question, I can't really see how the first two parts of the clue fit in.

If you need any further clues for yours, just shout.
