Yes charts so there the same dog just different parts call them different things 

No, I wouldn’t say they were the same; similar but not the same.

Probably all came from the hunting dogs of the Fertile Crescent, but changed and adapted to the terrain and climate of the particular environment.

As they went north into Central Asia they evolved into the heavier coated Tazi, Afghan and even into the Borzoi. 
Into the west they evolved into the Galgo , Ibizan and some types of Poenco and other types.

Theres a school of thought that the north European running/hunting dogs , the so called “Celtic hound” such as the greyhound, deerhound and the original Irish wolfhound, were a different type.

Interbreeding with each other has muddied the waters….the Spanish galgo was probably bred from Arab dogs during the Arab rule in parts of Iberia, but, in my mind , also has greyhound in its make up ! The Chartpolski, or Polish hound could be a mix of Arab and Celtic hounds, I don’t know.

People will disagree with my assessment, that’s fine, we can’t even agree where the whippet came from, a breed only around 150-200 years old, never mind the saluki types that are thousands of years old !

Cheers.
