That's the problem with ex racers, they have no sense and just go at full speed, often resulting in a broken hock when the try a tight turn !

Yea but how many are brought up from pups out in the fields learning field craft, about fences going under or over gates going through cover and start running there quarry from a young age, I guess most most people get failed racers at 2 year old or older and then start taking them out that’s why the get injured running into fences ect, most haven’t been left to free run out on the fields before and haven’t  learn there trade from a young age, was the one you had an ex racer or you have it from a pup ? 

a friend of mine had one as pup years ago ,at the same time I had deerhound x greyhound ,collie x greyhound mix.we took them out together over the coming year ,mine progressed well,hunting up,cover etc,then catching .the greyhound showed no interest in anything really ,never ranging very far or using its nose.this is my only experience of greyhounds others may fare differently .

Thanks for the vote of confidence I don’t really want them ranging to far I’ve had enough of that with ignorant saluki crosses over the years, from what I’ve seen from these pups so far they seem a lot more intelligent than what I’ve heard people say about greyhounds over the years but time will tell, all I can do is try and give them the best start

you think you will have them running like a lurcher fens 

ive seen a few as been said muller fox before they get injured 

i know few old boys before saluki blood they had big strong greys they would bet on turns etc like gl does now kill very few had lurchers for the bunny’s 

you get a few seasons out of them you will have arms like pop eye from all the carrying them back to the motor

She turned 6 months today. Not sure what height she will make-she’s over 50% whippet and quite petite but I don’t mind.
