Lots of dogs can go coursing. Still, it is a sighthound sport, and the dogs most commonly used on live prey are whippets and greyhounds. Seeing dogs doing what they were bred to do is a beautiful thing to see...unfortunately, not all dogs were bred to do peaceful things like herding sheep. Of course, you're hearing this from a former foxhunter...who learned early on to avert her eyes on the rare occasions when hounds actually hit on the fox.
