Would you run barefooted on hard ground. ? Honest question. Honest answer; I’ve run dogs on hard ground in Australia, the Middle East and here. Im not recommending it, the owner decides where and when to run their own dog, but Salukis, as I’m sure you will agree, have been bred for centuries to run on hard ground, as have deerhounds. As I said in another post, you use your common sense when running dogs. Cheers. Quote Link to post

Never had a bull x so I can’t comment. I’ve found, strangely, that ped whippets had sounder feet than non-ped whippets, probably because the non-peds are so much faster. Cheers. Quote Link to post

I'm guessing they won't see much seeded or ploughed land. A guess the heat too will make the pads like concrete charts. But like you say it's commonsense where you run your dogs. A wouldn't be running on ground like bell metal or flinty land or ground that's got big arse boulders that have been knocked to the surface that I can notice all over the land. A dog will run anywhere it's up to it's keeper , to make sure that if possible you provent injury to the dog. Sometimes you can't help injuries. Shit happens. But you get lads that don't give a f**k.
