    As topics involving discussion of the traveling folk (of all kinds) seem to open up a bit of a can of worms I am inviting any of the Roma or Travelers on here to PM me directly if you are interested in telling me a little about the traditional way your folks keep dogs/horses etc. I am a mixed blood Cherokee living in the US and always curious about these kinds of things (Family story is we have some Roma blood as well - surname Wood, but I don't know the first thing about the traveling culture unfortunatly). I am willing to swap tales in return. (don't have a single one involving sight houn

    OK, a pair of Salukis or Galgos sounds cool. (I did not know what a Galgo was so I looked em up.) I can deal with hard headed as long as it also come with smart. My favorite breed personality wise is the APBT . (I also like their hardiness and athleticism come to think of it). Between the saluki or galgo, which one do you think has more sprint? And how would they both do in wet wooded terrain? Sorry for all the questions but my experience with other field sports tells me just enough to know that i am kinda out of my element here, ya know.

    OK, I am a total newbie when it comes to hunting with sight hounds. I live in CA USA and I am wondering what cross is best for a guy to start out hunting Jack and Cottontail using a single dog, or at most two. I spend time in the High Desert as well as the thick forest of Northern California. I have experience taking Jackrabbits with a red Tailed Hawk but no experiance with Lurchers.

    Hi all. I have hunted small game with rifles and Hawks in my youth, and look forward to doing so again soon (soon is a relative term unfortunately). I have recently been turned on by the concept of hunting with Lurchers and would like to educate myself while waiting for a more Hawk/dog friendly living situation. I have done most of my hunting in the deserts of Southern California, and will most likely continue to live and hunt on the west coast. I am excited to be here. CAcountry_boy
