dominance in pup choice

Hi roodog, sorry about the late reply.

Certainly a pup that has a dominant attitude should in theory also be more dominant and motivated to beat the other greyhounds in a race to the lure, unfortunately that does not always relate to ability, and in some instances can also lead to other undesirable traits such as marring during a race.

Never the less in my opinion a “stand up for my self” attitude in a pup is generally a good trait, rather than the pup that simply wants to beat up it’s litter mates, or one that scared to mix it with it's litter mates.

However, there are a lot more aspects to picking out a pup from a litter and having halve a chance of picking something that is competitive rather than attitude alone.

THIS particular post may be of some assistance.

Cheers,
Tom
