 From an Irish Wolfhound lure coursing meet (specifically LGRA, which is the Large Gazehound Racing Association; the dogs are muzzled so they can't eat the expensive lure they're supposed to chase).

This girl was fun to watch. She never took her eyes off the lure, but she was sort of bouncing down the course instead of really racing. None of the other dogs in her heat even bothered to look at the lure so she actually was doing well just following!

Doesn't she look athletic, though? I just love her muscling, the sort of coiled spring look to her body and her alert expression.
