mick_scar123 3 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Good prey drive. This may cause me too be ripped apart but I have seen intelligence in the breed but they can have a huge stubborn streak. Quote Link to post

J Darcy 5,871 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 Being a devotee of saluki/greyhounds for many years i think the saluki blood adds loyalty and tractability to the mix.....As with most dogs, it's the owners narrow mind that limits the dogs ability...JMO.....

skycat 6,173 Posted January 27, 2011 Report Share Posted January 27, 2011 to Whin and Darcy: Saluki types are only as ignorant as their owners want them to be, or as they treat them. How many Saluki types are allowed to develop their hunting instincts. I've always found mine to have exceptional noses, and given the opportunity, will figure out ways to catch their quarry in many different situations. If a Saluki is ignorant (thick) then how come so many people use them for long ears? And its not just about stamina> long ears is clever, needs a clever dog to outwit them on their home ground when the dog may not know that ground. Quote Link to post
