We have one, Copper's Cooper.
He's the most neurotic, annoying creature I've ever been around. The only saving grace for me is that he 'velcro'ed himself to my wife and not me. He NEVER shuts up...always whining, always. Will just sit there and whine, or he'll come stand six inches from your face and whine. He's never more than a few inches away from my wife, follows her around like its his job. Wipes his slobbery mouth on her work clothes like that's part of his duties as well. Looks like pecker tracks on black pants.
He's crazy fast. I used take him on leashed bike rides...I've gone over the bars countless times because he's a fricking idiot. shite in the streets countless times after I'd stop at every field I could...he'd just walk around and smell in the field...giant crap right in the middle of the street, always at the worst time.
He's great with my son and always has been. Literally nothing you could do to make him bite anyone.
Good luck with it, I swear ill ever own another dog after this one. Everyone said you need two of them so they aren't so needy...I told them to duck off, that's a suckers bet. Everyone always comes up to us to talk about their Vizsla and let me tell you, the stories are hilarious. One couple we know had two and the male pulled the ceiling fan off of the ceiling during a thunderstorm. Felt bad for laughing, but it's so like them.
Maybe we're just bad dog parents...our last dog was a Blue Healer and maybe we were just spoiled.
this is my nightmare.
kind of why i'm posting. the old lady is insistent that if she can train her pea brained greyhound to a military discipline level, the vizsla won't be a problem.
But from what I've read, these dogs never run out of energy, need endless attention, and can be a nightmare if left alone.
yes, they are beautiful animals. no doubt. but i'm nervous for the amount of work owning one is going to take. especially since it's a non-refundable $1500

You're just mad because you wouldn't be able to pass the interview.

I did pass 2 of them. Chose a superior breed

That sounds like a nightmare. Nothing about that paragraph sounds like something I would want. I kept waiting for the other side of the coin... he's neurotic, but.
Better you than me.
Better you than me.

i think you are missing the entire point of us owning this dog.

I live within the loop in Houston. This dog ain't hunting or pointing at shite outside of the neighborhood squirrels and the possum that runs thru the backyard from time to time.

man. i'm not looking for a speed demon.
i already have one. she would take off and leave any of those dogs you listed. i've never seen her lose a race to any dog breed outside of fellow greyhounds.

i feel like i found a hot button for the OTB in my first post on this board.

We own a retired greyhound already. She'll be 5 years old this year. And the older she has gotten, the more needy she has become for personal attention and play time.

Another.

I would discount anything else this guy says after this post.

The penis envy of the GSP crowd is truly entertaining.

that's awesome.
that's exactly what we want for our greyhound. she likes to chase. she doesn't really care about the ball or frisbee itself.
