ratpackjack 272 Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 I seen alot on here about the recall of salukies how if you want a dog to that comes back dont get one but surly if they where that much hard work people would not keep them i guess it all depends what your wanting from a dog beddy whippet seems to suit the lad i go mooching with handy little dog 1 Quote Link to post

shaunpowell 130 Posted April 8, 2013 Report Share Posted April 8, 2013 like nothenlite said depends what you run and where you run it,, as for recall never had a problem with mine,, i think you have to be more patient with them as pups but once theyve bonded with you there brilliant. i wouldnt have it any other way now, i also think that a saluki is no good once its passed around, there a one man dog,, jmo,, cheers shaun Quote Link to post

Carraghs Gem 1,699 Posted April 9, 2013 Report Share Posted April 9, 2013 Im starting to think some saluki strains are easier to train than others... Mine was a bit of a nightmare but has improved drastically, hes definately a 1 man dog, whilst he loves people im the only one he obeys. As for everyone keeping salukis... I usually keep bull x's and bitzas Quote Link to post
