    Is your pup by "Doxhope Knights Errant" ? If so, I have a bitch pup by him, out of Rivington Ena, 17 month old, and I couldn't be happier with her. She's doing everything I want of her at this age, and is exactly as I imagined her to be. Cheers.

    If you can see a problem with the foot and she is lifting it; then there is obviously something wrong. Take her to the vet, 'cause it MUST be affecting her running, even though you can't see it ! Leaving it will only make things worse. Hope it gets sorted. Cheers.

    Correct. An even earlier one gives the best description of a course iv ever heard. I think it was about 12th century. As when thy impatient greyhound slipped from afar Bounds o'er the glade to course the fearful hare She in her speed does all her safety lie He with double speed pursues his prey Over runs her at the sitting turn Yet licks his chaps in vain But blows upon the flux She seeks the shelter that the neighbouring covert gives wheres this one from mate ?thanks And gaining it she doubts if yet she lives.

    A bit before Plummers time, it was actualy a poem by a 15th century Lady, describing a Greyhound. Cheers.

    Cp that is a magnificent looking hound. She's a great bitch to own mate; no bother in the kennel, full of fun, at 17 month she is still a pup ! They say "longdogs" are hard to train, but she is OK. I don't expect "sit", "stay", Etc, from my dogs.... Only recall !! Thats probably only what I want from them, (retreive does help !!), I think she'll do the job ! Cheers.

    Keeps, you've actualy ran Deer X's, on most stuff, so what do you think of them ? Cheers.

    My idea was; get the very best 1st cross I could, give it the best upbringing I could; give it the best entering I could, and hope for the best !! Everything seems to be going to plan, only time will tell ! Cheers.

    I've had Deerhound blooded dogs before; had a beautiful 1/4 Deer 3/4 Grey, but it succumbed to parvo many years ago, before we fully understood the "cat 'flu" !! My little bitch Delta, is 1/8th Deer, not much, I know, but you can see it in her ! I have seen a good few Deer X's work, and they always impressed. I have high hopes for Lima; she hasn't been rushed, and is starting to do what I wanted, and expected, of her. Only time will tell ! Cheers.

    Asha, I think Davey was talking about my post, as I have the litter sister to his pup. I almost took his pup, as it looked so good, but I wanted a bitch ! Cheers.

    There is some right crap written about F1 Deer/Greys ! Not fast enought ? This pups dams half brother won the Greyhound Derby, TWICE ! She is the fastest lurcher I've had ! She's 29" and turns almost as fast as my 23" bitch ! She's had pleanty of rabbits, and jumps, hunts and lamps ! She is doing EVERYTHING I expect of her at 17 month. She won't be used for ferreting LOL !!but that isn't what she was brought in for !!!! Cheers.

    This question was asked before on a site, and I answered using Daley Thompson as an analogy. He was the greatest all round athlete in history, (my oppinion)! He could do every discipline of the decathlon VERY well, but he could not live with the specialist runners, jumpers and throwers ! So in my mind, an "allrounder" dog, should be able to do most things well, but won't be as good as a specialed coursing dog, or a foxing dog or a deer dog; it should be able to work with ferrets, lamp,etc., and be a generaly good all round moocher, a dog that can be used in almost all situations, and may not b

    No sutch thing as "best cross" !!! It depends on what you want the dog for, what type of work, what type of quarry, how it's bred, who bred it, how was it weaned, how was it brought up as a pup, how was it entered to it's quarry, how is kennelled and fed, how is it conditioned and looked after, etc, etc....... Cheers.

    This bitch is a "Longdog"; and is certainly NOT "just a racing machine or show dog" ! Cheers.
