Seriously Cal, if you have ever eaten dove and pigeon you would know the Pigeons are way bigger.
From my Mom's cookbook:
7.2.1 Old Maria’s Doves (Spanish Recipe)
3 chopped onions about a dozen doves
1 tsp peppercorns 1 cup white wine
1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce 1 bay leaf
Stew giblets, brown chopped onions slowly in bacon grease. Add salted doves and brase lightly. Add other ingredients and cook over low heat 45 minutes. Burn 2 Tbsp sugar and liquefy with broth from stewed giblets. Add with giblets to the birds. Place in a covered baking dish and bake at 350 deg 1-1/2 hours. To serve, remove birds from pan, siev the gravy and thicken just a little with flour.

Only have one lovely toy poodle and right now he's just sitting near the window and looks like he's thinking about the days when he can still go for a walk too bad honey there is a virus.
The thing about free roaming chickens is that it's preferable to know where they've been before going down the hatch. Same goes for pigeons.😎
After nearly 1000miles (1600km) yesterday we returned with 15 Greyhounds from a track in Florida. Up at 2am, then drove to a point just south of Valdosta, GA, met the hauler and returned to Nashville in one very long day.
A few photos of those lucky Greyhounds.

Thanks Cal. Still a bit groggy!!
One of the hounds in the photos is now at our home to be fostered until he can go to his forever home.

Wow, look at the thighs on those Greyhounds!
We have a miniature, and his teeny legs look like sticks! I'd love to have a big one, it's just not in the cards right now.
Whoa, imagine owning one and you are out for a leisurely walk in the yard and it sees a rabbit in the garden!
The instinct to chase a moving object is imprinted on their DNA. 4000 plus years as a breed gives them somewhat of edge when it comes to running. Not the fastest mammal on the planet, but definitely in the top ten.
My wife and I were walking a very first Greyhound, a little brindle girl of about 65lb (30kg) in a local park. My wife had the lead at that moment, and a rabbit appeared about 50 yards (45m) away. My wife could barely keep her feet under her body. A Greyhound reaches their top speed in 5-7 strides. Even though we have lots of trees in our back yard, squirrels sometimes fall prey to our hounds.
