I may be busy but on occassions do have some weird thoughts (yes I am going clinically mad )
The other day I was sat on my living room floor eating some dinner...... I know that is a really DAFT place to eat your dinner especially with greyhounds in the house. However....continuing....
I came to the conclusion that greyhounds have evolved from Veloceraptors !
Yes honest!
Why do I say that ?
Well like veloceraptors greyhounds stalk their prey in circular motion and working as a pack. Only their prey isn't you but what you are eating. One distracts you while the other goes in for the kill !!!!! Bang goes your dinner while you are not looking !
They remind me of the scene in Jurasic Park I where the safari guy says to the girl "run" when the veloceraptors outwitted him. "Oh you clever girl !" Wham Bam the kill is done !!!!!!
To add a bit of interest...... when a greyhound has a slack butt you can always call them Velocecrappers !!!!!!! boom boom
I'd be interested if anyone else tries this and notices a similarity !
Cheers Katz p.s. Yeah its probably the lack of sleep interferring with my brain function
well, leaving aside your current possible mental problems.......dave and daisy seem to work as a pair .........dave starts off by sniffing my dinner plate - i tell him NO and he saunters off to sniff neils dinner. when he's gone, daisy sniffs my plate......again i tell her NO and she's off over to neil - and so the circle continues. until we win, as we usually do ! then they'll lay down and ignore us !!!
I know what you mean, Katz - I've been known for my flights of fantasy myself. But what you're saying I believe is true. Two or more dogs living together do get the pack mentality and work as a team to hunt. And one of the things they never pass up on is the chance of a quick and easy opportunity to eat! Your comparison of greyhounds to Veloceraptors may not be far wrong.
