Looks a nice wee bitch. Enjoying this thread. Not my intention to derail the thread but what's folks experience quick opinions on running a nice compact pure ex racer for certain things? Are they too likely to get injured as only used to running the track or if you get a younger one, can they be brought on as general all-rounders? Cheers 

Friend had a pure greyhound bitch was game hard bitch he run it like a lurcher only downfall was it took a hard time off stuff and had a snipey muzzle but don't think it got any more knocks or bangs than a lurcher another one another friend had was just useless even at rabbits would chase and all just couldn't catch much at all and broke its back leg one night just jogging down a field  defiantly better with a lurcher tho better feet more robust better stamina if I'm looking for a lurcher I'd try to go to lurcher x lurcher bred pups how many pure greyhounds really get tested or the bull or collies  etc they breed out of to me your better breeding lurcher to lurcher out of well bred dogs doing the job you want at least your rearing a pup out of workers and if they were bred right the first time someone's done the hard work of making it happen

Yes,. .Anastasia produced a better class of Deerhound for the original job, and some, were even passable at organised hare coursing,.. (although it was never their proper vocation).. Back in the

Didn't one or two of them soldiers stay out 30 year or something....like one of mchull dogs reeling a hare in...lol

I was the judge and gave it “Champion Lurcher” , based solely on looks, condition, conformation and temperament. Its impossible to judge on working ability unless you have personally seen the dog

i disagree with most of im honest ive had half greys i’d say was very fast quick at them but ive had nearly pure salukis faster 

whippet or grey won’t add no speed for me ever on the field that isn’t what i’d use one for the mouth bit a nasty ness and that wanting them dead is a much better attribute that they have

Not any faster over a couple of hundred yards.  But they do bring the gear box
