It's in their DNA - we cross-bred it in over thousands of years.
Throw a stick for a German Sheppard and see what happens
Throw a stick for a Retriever and you get a different result
Watch what happens when a Jack Russel sees a squirrel

Funny you mentioned the Greyhound. There was one at a semi-remote project we were on. We were on that location for a while, so this became sort of a game we had with this dog.
He'd be sitting, looking at us driving down the gravel road (when I owned my Mule). Once we pass him, he'd take off running. By the time we got close to the end of the road. He'd be sitting on the side of the road waiting for us.
