where in my post did i mention 45 seconds you clown he made a refernce which stated that the greyhound would blitz the saluki i say bullshit dont tell me about greyhounds because i trained em for years on the track and on the coursing field and trained em to break track records sprinting and put a dog into the semi finals of the last welsh derby which was won by instant ganbler the brother to balliniska band which won the english derby the same year and the litter brother linacre won the scottish derby the same year i was 22 yrs old at the time our dog was later found to have had a long term

Thank's for you nice reply to what i think and i dont think it warrented me being called a first class idiot.. I dont have a greyhound but im sure if i could get hold of a fit 600yrd track dog that is pulling in good lap time's and winning race's against other greyhound's..would certainly leave any kind of running dog in the distance ..so in my eye's your post is from a first class idiot.. .. Millet in other words your backing out i can supply you with any amount of greyhounds you can take your pick of dozens of em put your greyhound on open land on hare surely thats the ultimate speed

now this is the quote of a first class idiot now i will take you up on this bet for any money you want any time you want you can even nominate any greyhound you want i willsupply the saluki cross you just state the purse that will be matched and arrange the time and i will supply the land now i defy you to show me this super greyhound because i can assure you millet i will be there and the money as well you put it up now when and where the balls in your court

i dont know where you get your info mate but theres not a greyhound in the world that would get near 50 mph and as for its a no brainer as you call it to any one thats had anything to do with running dogs ive been involved with dogs for over forty years and that includes open class greyhounds and coursing greyhounds . and pure salukis and lurchers i dont know why i bother to respond to any thread on here because you always get some pillock like your self make a reference to a dog getting close to 50 mph and the sarcky crack about the no brainer ive forgotten more about dogs im having some time

the reason people dont race salukis is because salukis will cut across to cut the hare off they are thinkers and will not run around a track trailing a hare as for the faster the open class greyhound will have the edge for approx 800 yrds after that its dead on its feet and the saluki comes into its own but a lot of salukis will compete with the average grader especially a lot of the kizzy pharoh lines which is a very fast breed of saluki

brookie replied to Paul in North Lincs's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
i think theres been a huge change in dogs over the last 40 yrs . 30 to 40 yrs ago there was if i can explain it correctly but i will try then there was a type which had evolved it was very rare a pure bred was used in lurcher breeding it was lurcher to lurcher . and types had evolved according to what part of the country you lived in . they mostly belonged to travellers and a few working class families from town to town and kids did things differently in them days we found our own things to do the same as the adults did. so what ever we did was always out doors around the country side weather -

brookie replied to a topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs

if youd read the post correctly youd see its rabbits i referred to 30 a night as for hares hes on tape doing 3 out 3 on the plains on a boxing day being gambled . i dont think there was any arse licking in any replies what it was was an appreciation from some quarters of men ive never met but men who i know have walked the walk and owned dogs of equal qualities i sincerely hope there is better all rounders about brcause i then know that at least in some places the future of the lurcher is safe because what ive seen in the last 25 years is the demise in the standard of this great breed of dog

theres allrounders out there and good uns as well. a lot of people post on here and just from reading whats put up one can tell they have limited if any experience of working with top class lurchers or the skills required to expose a dog to this type of work and achieve an exceptable standard . but they are out there

two hundred yards is nothing down the beam if the land is big enough most stuff dont start running until the dog is more or less on top of it or it hears it coming and if its blowing its got be up close to it to hear the dog
