Ya I see what u mean but I couldn't pay that now not with the luck I have with dog I pay big money for ha but if they where genuine working deerhound and genuine people wanted one and too keep a working line going forward I suppose it is a far price to keep the tits out of it if u had them for 100 150 only to see or hear on the merry-go-round a few months down the line
-
Now that is what u call an round lurcher working nice dog too
-
. I DON'T Mean The deerhound are mongrels haha ?
-
Maybe that where we're going wrong I'm. Stuck in work all day looking out at the sunshine while I could be breeding mongrels for stupid money the dole here I come haha
-
I was thinking the same but didn't want to start an argument about the price of pups
-
Maximus Ferret put a link up to his add they are cracking pups but I couldn't and wouldn't pay 850 for a pup I only ever paid that once and It was a gundog at that had him pts last year at 16 he was 3 when I got him by god did I learn the hard way with that dog so I promise myself no more stupid money on dogs haha
-
they are cracking looking pups but I couldn't or wouldn't spend that on a pup did anyone on here get one or how there doing be interesting to hear
-
So if a few people did want to get them back on track so to speak it would be possible it a pity the show people don't see what there doing to some breeds not just deerhound all the best bob

The ban wouldn't affect any one type of dog. Even pre ban deerhounds and first and second crosses were a rarity up this neck of the woods. I never seen a pure deerhound run but seen a few first crosses and three quarters. The best of the first crosses were the lighter built bitches, most of the dogs were way too big and heavy for all round work. The second crosses were a better prospect with a larger percentage of the litter being more suitable for all round work. The best deerhound blooded dogs seemed to be when the mix of deerhound and greyhound were mated to a good line of lurche

Shanehound off here had some tidy looking houndsnice price too, any wonder they're on the extinction list. Feckin money ruination again It's never been cheap to buy a pure deerhound pup. I can't remember what he charged, only that it was cheaper than the going rate. I don't know Shane personally but he doesn't keep deerhounds anymore. When he got out he offered me a youngish adult dog, 30 inches at the shoulder, for a couple of hundred to a good home. I turned it down as I didn't need anymore dogs. I hear it's doing well with it's new owner. If you want a purebred pup I can't see you

What would u pay for a pure deerhound I'm guessing it's. Crazy money by that last post
-
Sorry for all the questions but do you think its because of the ban over in the UK that its playing apart in the deerhound and its crosses falling out of favour might be a stupid question if ya don't ask you'll never no
-
Do u think the genuine working deerhound will be lost a some point. In the future if there not already gone because of the small pool left all the beat bob84

Shanehound off here had some tidy looking hounds I have never seen a pure deerhound work only deerhound lurcher she gave it her all anytime u asked her. Like I said earlier could have been rose-tinted glasses with her but she kept us in pocket money ha
-
Is their any genuine deerhounds about now I mean the lean well put together type's that can actually run not like the big heavy boned one that looked like wolfhounds that a lad at the birr game fair this year

Every summer when we were kids we'd go to England to see family as thats where my nan and grandad are from I'll never forget the deerhoundxs his brother had the last year we were over he had two pups left out of his good bitch as he put it so one came back with us now maybe its rose-tinted glasses but my god she never seemed to do anything wrong she used to work with the springer to the gun anything asked of her she did me and the uncle who younger then me got some fun out of her and she would keep us in pocket money with the local greyhound men I only wish that the grandad had got a pup of he
-

No it not a wind up it was tied up in a sand pit down by the local river after travellers had move on it was half it body weight I couldn't see any one give it back it cost a far bit to get her right so I don't want to give up just yet as she's still young about 15 mouths old she has a cracking nose on her
