Anyone out there have any experience working pure greyhounds. any advice or stories of your experiences greatly appreciated !

First one i took on was 29" ex track,i wanted it to line a lurcher bitch,i thought if im feeding it, it better start earning its keep.This was in the 80,s.Decent dog on open land and mullered fox,s,run it to hard and had to carry it back on several occasions,hit a wall and was pts.next one was an ex track bitch,took me 6 months to get it jumping right,made an accomplished hare dog,but again could,nt handle hard work and sometimes got a piggy back home,she woodened a terrier and its pups i owned and turned feisty around other dogs and ended up in a hole.Id never take on another ex track dog,a pup may find more uses but Greys are limited when pushed hard and often.
