I think a Greyhound reared from a pup into the working world would fair better, learning from their mistakes.
I had a Whippet Greyhound (racing type) that did very well. Obviously not as robust as a Lurcher, but she had good feet and learnt to control herself a bit, so kept sick bay to a minimum.
Was gonna put her in pup at the age of 6, then she went and killed herself, hit a bench picking up a rabbit.
