Game Salukis

I think it excuse the Arabs use for saluki not tackling anything in fact that is why halal was invented or so I'm told

it would have to be some dog to pin that down with its feet ffs, and i thought ala said it was ok to eat it as long as it was your saluki that cought it.

I like the saluki there is no doubting the coursi g bred dogs wouldn't be what they are without the saluki blood it's just that 90% of the ones in the Arab vids are barking curs

Most Arabs Train Salukis to pin the quarry not kill it so then it can be halaled for the table. Those are two pups hence they are trying to pin it not kill it but you experts know all about salukis my arse, 

Halal killed animals is probably a worse ending.

Piss poor display. Not the dogs fault, they look young and I guess that'  not their usual quarry, but the idiot on the end of the slip. He had less bottle than the dogs, why not break them off and let it run or stuck it if you want to. Just looked like a recipe for bitten pups and a shit way to die for the honey badger to me.

See, they're all f****n barmy, only an arab would try to get his camel to play baseball with his own head!  No offence to desertbred, just lightening the mood, peace out brother

Breeding foreign distance running dogs to catch a native sprinting animal don't make the saluki anything in my book ..

[Busher100 739]

Ok then so what other breed would add more then the saluki to the coursing bred dogs of today who are regularly catching 3-5 a session on big land  I can't think of any other type of lurcher that will do that and be able to do it consistently I know lurchers of all xs will catch hares but not in the same numbers the saluki xs can and I think most would agree.

We don't use them in Australia, well very rarely, tried and tested, the staghound is a sounder dog, much prefered for our ground.

 the hare while quick off the mark, has fantastic stamina and can not be classed as a sprinter, and a coursing lurcher must poses this to stand any chance of being a consistent hare catcher, the saluki is the only dog that can add the x factor, we in this country have taken a dog that was developed thousands of years ago and added it to our dogs to create (in my eyes at least) a superior animal bred for a specific purpose, I don't know when the first saluki crosses appeared, or indeed if it was done with any knowledge of what would happen, this dog was the father of my first saluki cross almost fifty years ago.
