One is a Sloughi the other is a Slinky which one is which

Hi guys posted a few things a year or so ago about my pup Slinky stumbled across this thread while trying to find out what she is. Sloughi? what y'all think

To me it's irrelevant. People whose dogs would kill another given the opportunity are so far at the end of the spectrum that they don't even come into consideration in this kind of situation as it is an absolute given that they should never ever be allowed off leash under any circumstances. They are not the ones who ruin it for everyone, the ones who ruin it for everyone are the ones who don't respect the law, and don't respect other people's right to walk without being harassed or worried by other people's dogs. This was completely uncalled for. Simply saying 'no offense to people who own them' is NEVER going to remove the offensiveness from such a comment. If I owned one of these breeds I'd have the serious Sh!ts on over this comment and would be extremely offended. Well said! Nobody has said that it is acceptable. Most of us agree that it was over the top and could have been handled better, but that he would not have felt a need for it if the law had been followed in the first place. Were you there? Did you witness the situation? Did you ask the man how he felt? Clearly, you are in no position to make a call on whether the guy was scared or not - perhaps he had to walk past quite close to them to get home. this guy came flying in my direction, as stated I had my grey x puppy on leash and rotti beside me as the guy came at us my rotti move out of the way because he has so often been bitten by smaller dogs and now gives them a very wide birth he's not scared of them but wise of there mannerism while this guy was up in my face his foxy had a go at my pup who was on the lead !!!! what im getting at is,ok I was wrong to assume that it was a leash free area and I should have put frank on the lead but you just don't carry your self the way this guy did He was trying to intimidate me and i had to use every bit of self control not to end up in bigger trouble. To many people are angry in this world!!!!. He could have informed me and there would not have been a problem instead he carried on like a pork chop and things could have ended a lot worse.

like i said this is a area where heaps of people walk there dogs off lead this is the first dog i have seen on a lead and I did not realise how people were about this but like i said i will conform now but this guy came at me and got in my face no need for that he wasn't scared he was just a fight

thanks that is exactly what i think. I rang the ranger after the incident as i was unsure if it was a on or off lead area as there is no signage and he said that any area that is out side of a exercise area is a lead area and now that i know i will conform but the way he went about it just wrong the guy with the foxy that is

hi all was walking the dogs the other day and noticed this guy screaming in our direction, now at the time we had our greyhound x on a lead and our poor old rottie frankie of the lead,Frankie is a lovely dog never goes near other dogs thinks he is people and he was walking right beside me. as this guy got close he starts screaming at me your a f**#ing idiot mate then gets in my face calling me every thing under the sun. I tell him that my dog is fine and he continues going off, Then steps up to me this guy was just like his dog which had a go at my grey pup btw, he was a yappy little bitch could not believe this still in shock now really sad that some people out there are like this the walk that we go on is very quite and every body walks there dogs off lead even thou its not designated as an of lead area

thanks for the feed back guys, and thanks Black Dog in WA Slinkys is really amazing me with how intelligent she is and eager to please she can sit stay shake on either paw, lay down and almost rollover "had her doing it after 10 minutes but she needs a bit more work" and she is getting better when she takes off after birds she comes as soon as I call her, so yes im a proud parent, well not as embarrassed as I use to be.i have been on that kangaroodog site and there is a dog called ringo looks similar what do you all think ?????????????

hi Guys i was just looking on the forum and could not see any post on Roo dogs, we were down in Fremantle the other day with our furry kids and we saw a greyhound dog, our pup which is only 21 weeks was near on the same size and her paws were almost twice the size. She has had a real prey drive since the day we got her if any body has any info or links to info it would be much appreciated know body seems to really know what she is the vet was baffled thanks kel, slinky and frank

hahahaha that cracks me up Slinky does all that to and grunts if you loud while she's trying to sleep which is most the time. thanks for that we were calling it chirping but screaming really fits the noise well

yeah shes getting bigger here is another pic. No lameness at all in the front legs i think that she was just about to take off in that photo

i really can't see the staffy in her but she does that high pitch whistle like one

frankies &th bday

hi all just thought that i would put some pics of our pup up (as requested) Slinkys now 21 weeks she weighs 19.2kgs and is approx 59cm

hi all, just wondering if there is any lure coursing around perth area as our new pup has a real taste for chasing things and I think that it could be a good day out for us and her cheers

thanks for the info put my mind to ease a bit poor boy is home now recovering

took the pup into the vet today for her final vax and thought that while i was there i would get my rottie checked out. there was a small lump on his front elbow and the vet wanted to have a sample taken to check. called me back later to tell me its a melanoma, Im so worried hope that he will be ok has any body else been thru this please let me know

this one looks like it has saluki in it to me as well. Do you know what it has in it? no idea. all i know is she looks like she will out grow my rottie in a month or two the rate she is growing at

kangaroo dog

thanks for all the comments i will continue to keep posting progress photos of her. i think she may have smooth saluki in her from some pics i have seen, does any one think that there may be great dane in her. also is GSD german shepherd dog?

no so far she has been really good training up really quick first day taught her to sit now she can sit say and come. we have had her out a few time and she seems really good with other dogs plus her new brother is a very patient Rottweiler

We were considering adopting a greyhound, when we were in the pet shop looking at fish and saw her. She was out growing the cage (had already been there for 1 month) all her brothers and sisters had sold, she was discounted to $100. We instantly fell in love with her.

That's my guess. Are you in a rural area Kels84? W no spearwood western australia the pet shop was 100% her mother was american staffy.

thanks for the welcome
