shep123 36 Posted November 3, 2012 Report Share Posted November 3, 2012 anything with saluki in it is bred for stamina for long runs what your after is for short burst i suggest a greyhound whippet x collie you will have everything you need in this breed. coat, speed, size,brain perfect for the job good luck Quote Link to post

Michael Alcho Haden 0 Posted November 15, 2012 Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 personaly i like anything with whippet in them to me the best whippet cross is whippet x greyhound over a salukie x kelpiehound Quote Link to post
wirral countryman 2,110 Posted November 16, 2012 Report Share Posted November 16, 2012 My only advice would be to get something with a bit of coat,rough coated dogs don't get anything like the same amount or sort of injuries and cuts that smooth coated dogs get,I've had my dogs hung up on wire and lifted them off many times without any damage,my mate keeps whippet/greyhound based lurchers and he has spent over 1500 pound this year on stitches and injuries,I would never own a smooth coated dog of any sort,there's plenty of choice about just make sure both parents get plenty of work and have been relatively free from injuries in their working lives so far and you will not be far away in your choice,good luck,WM Quote Link to post
