Why is it that when Milo and Gelsey accompany me from one room to another in the house, they circle around me like a school of fish?  The circling speed increases as a doorway approaches.

I seem to remember reading something about how way back greyhounds descended from herding dogs. 

It takes me forever to get out of the house for Wiki walkies because she's so underfoot.  Circle, circle, shove, circle, circle, stop. All while doing the high jump.

I guess it isn't unusual for greys. But non-grey Daisy is way worse because she does random spins when she moves. I never know where she's going to be.

I’ve found that they have an innate insight to when you take your eyes off them. That’s when they cut across your path, you knee them in the ribs / fall over them, and they look at you as if you’ve done it on purpose

On our last walk I kicked Nate in the leg and kneed him in the head.  None of this was intentional, of course, but he kept moving in front of me and the inevitable happened.  Trying to feed him is also made more complicated by the cavorting, leaping, and zigzag walking on the way to his crate. :lol:
