When he spots a coyote, he drops the trap door on the box and the greyhounds hit the ground tumbling, get up and chase down the coyote. His daughter says that they are sometimes doing 35 mph when they get dropped. Then he sends in a "kill dog" to dispatch the coyote when they corner him. Pretty brutal.

I have no idea if that’s true or not. I’ve never heard of that before. But people use dogs for hunting mountain lions and raccoons up here all the time
