the rough coat in poachermans pup comes from the fathers breeding which are all saluki hybrids the mother was half cross saluki greyhound put back to full saluki. i dont think saluki crosses are anything like wht they were when they first appeared i remember when i wanted my first lurcher my old man was not entertianing the idea of a saluki crosses at all from his personal experiances in the 70s early 80s. the mother to poachermans pups is a great bitch i think the secret was a strong bond between myself and her to make her a great allround lurcher with the sister to poachermans dog shes very
