good dog!
I wish I could tell how fast he is going.

fastest dog
hi anonymous.
it's not my dog, but my friends'. He is running about 25 miles an hour. My buddy shows the speedometer for a brief second you can pause there and see, but i think it's slighly beyond 20 mph. The video was about 4 minutes of running, condensed to 1.15! Enjoy
Oh and he has one eye - lost the other in a dog fight at the pound!

Geez!
A cheetah in a dog suit. Who knew??
-
Not a spaniel!
This isn't a spaniel. He's a Pointer. And yes, they are fast. :)
-
Pointers...
I have a dog of the same breed -- English Pointer -- and they are VERY fast.

Lucky to be alive
Okay... cool to see the fast doggy.
But the guy is driving down a narrow dirt road, fast, chasing a dog who might dart in front of the car, while holding a videocamera and aiming it at the dog.
Seriously, this cute Salon video could easily have ended up on one of them websites with the death videos.

Answers on the fastest dog
1. He's a coon hound, believe it or not Flash is not a pointer, and I might add, he's a one-eyed coon hound. (there's a country song in there somewhere)
2. Understand the concern of the reader about the safety - i would categorize under "don't try this at home". Also, this video was born out of chance, Flash spent a whole summer chasing that car down the road anyway - this was a chance to capture it all!
enjoy
