Polish Greyhound
Next Breed: Polish Hound
Previous Breed: Pointer
The Polish Greyhound (Polish: Chart Polski, pronounced HEART POLL-ski) is a Polish sighthound breed. It is known as the Polish Greyhound, although it is not a direct relative of the Greyhound dog.
History
The Polish Greyhounds originated in Poland, most likely from the Asian sighthound, a Saluki-type dog. They were not bred from the English Greyhound.
Appearance and Size
Polish Greyhounds have a short, smooth fur that comes in many colors. The coat is somewhat heavier than a Greyhound's. They have an undercoat that gets thicker in the winter. Polish Greyhounds have a longer brush on the tail and have culottes at the rear of the thighs. The average Polish Greyhound weighs about 65-95 pounds, and ranges from 27-32 inches tall.
Personality
Polish Greyhounds have some similarities to other sighthounds, in that they are not overly active dogs, unless they have a purpose to be active. Such as when they are running and chasing prey. In other ways they are very unlike the typical sighthound. They can be dog aggressive, due to their being bred to hunt wolves and can be very territorial. They have a strong pack instinct and will not always accept new dogs into their home. They can be very good guard dogs in the home and they create strong bonds with their owners; in some, this instinct is so strong, they will not accept strangers coming into the home. They enjoy a good exercise regimen, walking them daily is a very good way to do this. They love to run, of course, and if they can no longer be used for actual hunting, (many locations prohibit this) then a decent facsimile would be participating in the performance sports like coursing and racing. Between running activities, they like nothing better than lounging on the couch or bed. They are obedient and easy to train, although they can be stubborn and willfull. This is not the best breed for the novice dog owner. They need early socialization and firm, fair guidance from their owners

The Greyhound Agility Diaries - Mina learns to weave
We're making progress in our quest to complete a grade 3 course, in January 2013, as part of my university degree. I've been working with Mina on a set of 6 V weaves in my garden and today was the first time we had a chance to practise on a set of 12 in the agility training field... ...I'm really pleased with the results. They may not yet be fully upright but we've come a long way from having the poles horizontal on the ground. We'll make that grade 3 course, yet!
