G2 NATURAL HISTORY 
GREYHOUND. 
A Greyhound has a long bod)', a ncal 
sharp head, a full eye, a long mouth, sharp 
teeth, little cars, with thin gristles iri them, 
n straight neck, and a broad and strong 
breast; his fore legs are straight; his him 
legs also straight and long; his shoulders 
broad, ribs round, strong, and full of sinews; 
and taper about the belly. He is the swill' 
est of all dogs. The best time to try him 
and train him to his game, is at twelvi 
months old. He courses by sight, and nt* 
by scent, as other Hounds do. He is said 
to outlive all other kinds of dogs. 
The Hound, the Setting Dog, and tin 
Terrier, are only one, and the same race of 
dogs; for it has been remarked, that the same 
birth has produced setting dogs, terriers, and 
hounds.
