[desertbred 5,490]

1000 metres on a track cannot be compared to a 1000 metres out on the land or on sand or shale and certainly it was not done trying to course quarry you are making ridiculous comparisons you made one of man running a 4 minuter mile and asked how far a dog could run in 4 minutes a marathon runner can run 26 miles in 2and a quater hours a husky 2would run it but not a coursing dog.. its horses for courses as far as I see, 1.3 miles out on plough or seed always assuming you could find land of that size without obstructions and a hound behind a long ear would be some course you see a few 4/5/6 minute courses but very few and far between and they are certainly not at a flat out pace.

i gues the salukis do the same as wolves by running their prey into the ground then making a kill where a greyhound uses its sheer speed ?

Depending on the quarry a saluki will go for the long game if required but there are plenty about that will nail them on tight circles

Better than mere crossbred "lurchers"?

I prefer to run my saluki on bigger land, its more to their advantage , however they can and will work well on smaller land, consistency my major issue, not the dogs problem more my own problem, as someone else said earlier in the week, the limits are mainly on one end of the slip

 

pures and lurchers should not be compared , enjoy em for what they are starting to compare them is fools gold, ones a saluki bred for one place and another is a saluki bred for another place, all are just dogs at the end of the day

[arcticgun 4,548]

[riohog 5,708]

[arcticgun 4,548]

proper tested last night pal were they not, not so much as a whinge out of mine, even the pups enjoyed the evenings graft, not a single draft did I suffer all evening what more can a man ask best 800 I ever spent :laugh: :laugh:

[desertbred 5,490]

mine are a class act finding pebbles for my catty, as for game cant find f**k all, so built plinths around the beruit bomb site for them to sit on during the day , be glad when the grass gets longer and the weather warmer .get them out a bit then.
