Dogs can be pretty fast depending on
their breeding. One breed most famous for its speed is the greyhound. In
addition, experts have also recognized the Saluki as a fast breed as well. The
greyhound is believed to be the world’s second-fastest land animal with peak
speeds of around 43 miles per hour over short distances. The saluki along with
the Whippet breeds; however, are thought to be the fastest dogs over long
distances. The saluki has been recorded at a speed of 42.8 miles an hour.
Experts believe that both the saluki and greyhound are able to reach such
incredible speeds due to the heavy padding on their feet that absorbs the
impact of its body when running. It’s no surprise that the saluki is part of
the greyhound family with a similar sleek build. If you’re looking for fast dog
