This is the lurcher's time and place. The people who use them usually take them out after dusk as this is when much wildlife is active. The dogs have excellent night vision and can see a long way. They are very focused.
The dog painted here is a greyhound lurcher.
These dogs usually work for two or three years, then the females are used for breeding and the males are often disposed of.
