    I've only been having a laugh on here, as I suspect Dan was...... but this has to be the daftest post, (unless you are taking the piss) !! How is a 24" more "versatile" than a 25" or a 23" ?? And "small dogs grow up to cloddy or slow " ???????? where on earth did you get that one from ??? Cheers. Charts your a fussy bugger. The lad had to pick just one height and chose 24 because it's around the height expected for a more versatile dog, I'm sure there's every chance a 23 or 25 would be versatile to but we weren't allowed 3 choices now were we? lol. The best rabbit dog I have ever

    I'd say 22 3/4", as then you could show it in the "under 23" and the "rabbitting class" at shows and tell the judge how good it was !! I'm a bit pissed off as there isn't a 29" choice, as my Deer/Grey Pencil Neck will take as many rabbits as any other size dog ! There's shit 22" dogs and there's shit 30" dogs ............ !! Cheers.

    If my dogs cant outrun a whippet of any ped in a 1/4 mile race I'll shoot em all. You're not getting into the "rabbiting" are you Dan ... Please say it aint so !!! LOL !!! Cheers. I already got rabbit dogs ya silly old f****r. They just get a little tight in the belly after 3 or 4 of em. The Skycat pup looks well, but I'd sooner feed it for a week than a month !! Cheers.

    How long is a piece of string ?? Lurchers are a "Type", not a breed. They range from, say, Beddy/Whippets to Deerhound/Wolfhounds ! The work they do varies from ferreting to deer coursing ! Then there is also how much work the do, what conditions they are kept in, etc ! So It's an impossible question to answer....or ask !! Cheers.

    At the end of the day; Greyhound is THE base breed for Lurchers. Just imagine Lurchers without any Greyhound in them ? Of course you could use Whippets, Deerhounds,Salukis as the base breed... but why have we used Greyhound for hundreds of years ? For the speed, of course !! The other breeds all add to the mix, but they'd be a sorry bunch without Greyhound SOMEWHERE in their breeding !! Cheers.

    I've seen three track Greyhounds suffer terrible injuries when tried in the field. One was a dog that his owner thought a run on a hare might "pep him up" ! It came back from a course with a broken toe, broken tail, split head and looked like it had been "unzipped" down it's spine. It was put down. Another was slipped on a roe, it's hock snapped like a dry twig on the first turn. It was put down. The next was also slipped on a roe, but it saved the expense of being put down; it ran into a tree and broke it's neck. The one thing they had in common was exterme speed. They were on

    Snoop, every time I slip a dog on a hare, I want it to kill ! Of course thats what it's about , but I was simply trying to answer the origional question ! Of course matches and single handed running had nothing to do with the demise of coursing, The Hunting Act. 2004 was the single thing that banned coursing ! Cheers.

    But the 2 dogs doubled up, we are talking about, wasn't about killing hares; and 5/5 meant nothing, it was about testing the dogs against each other, not against the hare ! Cheers.

    Conflict of interest there surely?? Of course !! That's why a decent Brief would have had it thrown out of court !! This was 40 odd years ago, things were a bit differnt then ! LOL ! Cheers. Aye, better to accept the £60 than remortgage on a brief....40 years ago, wasn't £60 a lot of dosh back then? More than my weeks wages ! Cheers.

    The people who hated coursing and wanted it banned, could see no distinction between one dog or two; or 100 yard slips and kick-ups ! So the fineries of the chase were lost on them in thier blind hatred of ALL hunting !! Cheers.
  23. chartpolski
    I think there has allways been single handed, where the kill counts; and doubled, where the dogs performance against another dog is more important than the kill. Just different versions of testing a dog. The only thing that contributed to the sports downfall was "The Hunting Act, 2004" Cheers.

    Lurcher owners/breeders are after the "Holy Grail" of the running dog ; a dog with the speed of the Greyhound, the brains of the Collie, the stamina of the Saluki, coat of a Deerhound, the heart of the Bull, etc, etc !! The base breed of any Lurcher line needs to have Greyhound or Whippet or Saluki or Deerhound in it. Then it's a case of breeding "the best to the best" !! Or so they tell me ..... Cheers.

    In my case it was a .22 rifle. Cheers.
