Because I have not gone down south to run Zephyr, I really do not know the dogs down there. I am pretty certain I know who the breeder of that dog is. it is a beautiful silken.

Yes, it was my 2nd visit to that practice event. (They allowed us to run our Cav, for the heck of it!) He ran well (for a Cav.) But whippets/silkens/greyhounds & saluki's are the true Ferrari's of the dog world. We were running a Mustang. (Not really fast, but not like a Vega, either.)
Anyway, I was there to watch/record the dogs as they passed by me. Seeing the dogs at regular speed is just amazing. Seeing the dogs at 240 frames per second (slo-mo) is positively mind blowing. Every dog becomes graceful. I just wish that yootoob could accommodate slo-mo...
I have no idea who's dog I filmed, as I must have recorded 15-20 dogs. I usually just offer the recording to the dog owner, then they can do what they want with it. I'm much better behind the camera, than in front of it.
Oh, one more thing...
somebody has her eyes on a silken to train...
