These graceful and athletic dogs hunt by sight and are therefore also known as Sighthounds. It is the contrasts that define them: delicate yet powerful, calm yet energetic, distant yet affectionate. Their history dates back to the earliest human cultures, and they have retained this primal nature to this day. They lack the usual \"will to please\"; classic obedience cannot be expected from them. The soul of the sighthound primarily wants to run, and their gentle nature should not let us forget that they are hunting dogs. Furthermore, it should be considered that sighthounds from animal welfare organizations have a \"previous life\" as working dogs and were not socialized for a life as a house dog.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWith this webinar, I show how the adaptability and attachment capacity of sighthounds can be addressed. The possibility of off-leash running is part of their species-appropriate keeping, and here it is important to find understandable ways of communication. Sighthounds, or Galgos, do not want to be bent to someone's will, but rather to be understood by their human for what they are: proud, independent, and incorruptible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c!--nl--\"\u003e\u003cp\u003eI want to show how you can lay the foundation for living together with your sighthound through team or group formation, so that it can also be kept well as a companion dog in the city. If a Galgo Español understands the purpose of required measures, it is willing to participate joyfully. The leash as a \"hand to the dog\" is an important tool in this.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\n\t\u003cli\u003ePersonality of the Galgo Español\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\t\u003cli\u003eCommunication with a Galgo Español\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\t\u003cli\u003eGroup, rules, spaces\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\t\u003cli\u003eWhat makes a sighthound\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\t\u003cli\u003eExercise and alternatives\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\t\u003cli\u003eDealing with lack of socialization (skeptical to shy)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\t\u003cli\u003eRisk of escape or breakout\u003c\/li\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eOur speaker\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eUrsula Löckenhoff is the founder of the animal welfare association Galgo-Hilfe e.V.
