desertbred 5,490 Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 the only thing about salukis in ireland is by the time they get to there fox its gone to cover,and they dont like crashing ditches,makes them a bit of a no no for foxing,unless your hunting open ground,fell or fens From your post youve seen alot of salukis work then ?

morton 5,367 Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 Get a well bred working saluki pup it will guard your house and stock also as well as get game and fox. Saluki guard dogs ay ? Dunno about that but I'd say they may do a good job alerting the neighbours after the intruder flicks its nose and the dog howls like a falceto werewolf at 100000db!! You really havent got a clue about the breed have you? Ive got a couple here now would really like to see you flick their nose They may want something more resilient to a flick of the snout Quote Link to post

DogMan85 722 Posted February 19, 2017 Report Share Posted February 19, 2017 Why the hell would anyone choose a Saluki over a Bull cross if you're looking for a fox dog.... 1 Quote Link to post

Thats being as naive as Desertbred,if we are talking percentages then the thug will outmuller the graceful one,yet many a fox slayer owns saluki ancestry,they run further,longer and dont suck the life out of their catch either. 1 Quote Link to post

No it's not it's being honest and realistic, there's fox dogs and there's fox dogs. Honesty and Bull type lurchers,hilarious.Again it never ever ceases to amaze me that the fox was known as lurcher quarry for centuries before the bullshit hit the fan.The finest fox slayers in my lifetime never owned bull in their breeding and the main reason for the bullshit explosion is piss poor lurcher breeding and owners that sought the advantage of the quick and easy fix.Less than a few decades ago the bull bred lurcher never surfaced because there were better options more readily around,the computer was the Bullshit salvation,ego,s and blood lust,nothing more. 2 Quote Link to post
