night_life14 0 Posted May 20, 2010 Report Share Posted May 20, 2010 (edited) hi i've a first cross saluki greyhound, i find them stubborn, hard to train off live stock, because the bigger things excite them,they are good guard dogs, i find them easy to train to jump,sit lie,train to lamp, ferret. but they can go deaf when you call them back, but they never run off,saluki x's seem clever then other dogs. i wouldn't have any other cross of lurcher.

coursing man 10 Posted May 21, 2010 Report Share Posted May 21, 2010 i heard that they are untrainable only any good for large fields and they are thick ,,,, my opinion is that you get out of a dog what you put in to it,some dogs are better than others yes,but you can give a bad dog man a well bred dog and the dog wont make shit,pass it on to somebody that knows what there doing and you'll see a differance.thats a fact in my opinion so dont go blameing a breed of dog.
