Fore-arm.—Very long, strong, and should consist of little beyond bone, muscles and tendons. It is in this region, particularly, that the Greyhound excels in beauty. Must be as straight as a line from elbow to knee, and, above all, well placed in relation to the parts above and below.
The forward position of the fore-limbs are a striking feature of the Greyhound, giving a minimum of weight to carry in front.
Long oblique pasterns, and compact hard feet are points of great importance.
Hind-quarters.—Strength, width, and a great degree of flexibility are necessary in this region. Weak, or soft muscles destroys a Greyhound's speed, turning and staying power.
