Pack, Herd, Pride or Lone

I think humans often fall into the above groups, I'm definately a lone operator, although I will get into a pride with close friends and family, before going my own way again.

I think packs are often more aggressive and predatory, herds more passive and prides comprise small groups of relatives and friends who might live together but will also allow member the freedom to go thier own way when they needs too.

Which are you?

  • Oh Lone. Apart from the dog of course. 

    Maybe that's a pack of sorts? 

  • I'm part of a pack, consisting of Fearn and her doggy friends and and their humans, theres between 3 and 5 of us with at least one dog each, all but one are hounds, either greyhounds or lurchers. Its a very loose pack, I'm on the edges of it, which is sort of how I like it, it's good though if one human is unwell or something, the others will take over walking duties. It's interesting being part of this pack, I do feel like a cat amoung dogs, they're very different to me, but we all get on and they're cool with me being ASC.

  • I have a lurcher or to be more specific a long dog, as she's a greyhound, whippet and saluki cross, she brindle. I used to have two retired racing greyhounds, one, Dogglet, a large brindle and Monty who was tuxedo.I'd never really had anything to do with greyhounds before, but they're the most cat like dogs, they spend most of thier time alseep, total 40mph couch potatoes, that and the thieving, we found Dogglets stash behind a bush in the garden, where he took all his ill gotten gains. Monty could never quite believe we were really going out for a walk and got so excited he'd leap up, all 4 paws off the ground to look me in the eye.

  • i LOVE greyhounds they are so beautiful. So you have one? What coloration?
