i suppose itd depend on what ground your running them on too,id say that the more dainty dogs like saluki and whippets would prob get injured more than say,a beddy grey or bull grey.they just have abit tougher makeup.im new to it but from what iv learned so far thats what iv been told!?!

The dog that is out of condition is the one that tends to get injured the most ,in general if a dog is kept in tip top shape irelevent to its type tends to fair well on all terains and conditions good feed good managment good results in the feild HAPPY HUNTING

The only ones that dont get injured are the one's that dont get out

1x collie grey's, they seem quite a tough dog. Most lurchers get a knock, i think the more running dog in the lurcher, the quicker so more chance of get'n hurt. especially in the lamp.

of all of ours, Kye's staghound male has taken the most quarry (jackrabbit, coon, fox, coyote, rabbit, hooved, feral cats etc, even the odd poxy skunk and opossum when he feels like it and in 4 years he has only been laid up for 1 toe and for one stone cutting the "frog" of one foot. He is out about 250 days/nights a year on some wicked ground both flat and hilly, they take 1-2 nights a week off during the season, and off during much of late spring and early summer. On the other hand his bitch of similar type has been gored by a buck, broke her neck on a doe, broke her tailbone on another ... she is a trainwreck when she runs as she is just so commited. On the fitness note, we won't run them without being fit, so that goes without being said.

ONE THAT DOESNT RUN, SIMPLE AS

[Salopian 5]

A dog that doesn't try. All dogs that have a high prey drive tend to pick up some sort of injury during their career.
