Just now, two crows said:

I beg your pardon, how then do we know what we are watching, a good dog, or a shit hare, or vice versa.

From watching the dog run regularly. But the inexperienced wouldnt be able to tell the difference anyway

Galgos, salukis etc predate greyhounds and deerhounds, perhaps it was the other way around lol. 

 

Could well be, but there's deerhound in many lines of galgo, or like you say, should it be there's galgo in many lines of deerhounds? Lol. 

This warm weather is doing my head in again this year

How many hard seasons do you normally get out of dogs joe if ya dont mind me asking ? 

Same as most lurchers mate, from about 7 year old you can start seeing them go down hill, harder to get fit, longer to heal up/recover, more lightly to pick up an injury etc

When you go out regularly and see alot of dogs run and you can actually see whats going on between dog and qaurry i seen alot of dogs especially those that carry loads of saluki they will wait for mistakes kill stuff couple fields from where they was slipped things like that. When youve seen the real good dogs make it look easy these dogs that overun and wait for mistakes just wont cut it for you.

I call dogs that run like that pushers, they push waiting for a fence, easy strike or exhaustion they would rather miss than fully commit...…. I have absolutely no use for and wouldn't give good kennel space to such an animal.

I was out for a walk other day after work and I noticed the pair of buzzards was out with this yrs young un ,one was jumping up and down and looked to b stamping on something ,I got closer but spooked them so got on with my walk ,on return walk we went through the paddocks were we see the buzzards,

my tink  found a snake that the buzzards had just dined on,all the jumping and stamping was the bird killing the snake ,

i never see this befor,but I'm sure they was teaching young how to survive ,

It served it purpose got bill away from the Kelpie topic lol by giving him a different type of dog to bitch about lol and ended with some sensible discussion with different views put across without insult. Sometimes need to bring the bitching to one place as it continues to do. 

At the end of the day it's horses for courses.

Mooch, are you sure it was buzzards you saw? This warm weather can play tricks on the mind, and that does look like a big cat kill
