Tried calling my whippet of one or two risky chases, heart in my mouth sometimes, and eyes closed but she survived , only to succumb to cushings , cracking worker lived for work and so i put work in f

? mate we on the same page ??No dog is better than another with all the variables in there it’s only on the man with the dog on slip can say if it’s good or not an that’s based on what that man needs for his land an what suits him or her to another man the same dog can be that mans turd 

And really the only important opinion is the man feeding them. I've had dogs I know other lads wouldn't keep but I've also seen Internet famous dogs I wouldn't waste Dr. Johns on but if they keep the owner happy, we'll they're doing their job ain't they

No I'm not, you said they all rate the same and 150 rabbits is more impressive than 40 foxes but chances are that 40 fox dog will do 100/120 of those rabbits but that rabbit dog may not do 10 of those foxes. They're not all equal imo

1 is 1 mate they all rate the same were specialist is concerned 40 runs to 150runs who’s worked harder in there specialist field a runs a run no quarry wants to get caught a specialist fox dogs job an breeding is kill quick once caught a rabbit specialist caught an back to hand quick  1 is 1 that’s the face value of it not if they can be graded to be a all rounder out there specialist field only all rounder can be graded against another all rounder it’d be kind of like putting a fox dog in a rabbit numbers catching contest the advantages are in one dogs favour more than the other or vise versa

The saluki obviously, they are closest to the wolf in trainability, lol. Thousands of years of evolution refined them to the ultimate speed machine, the mighty whippet ?.
