    After the original Lowther Show banned Lurchers in the 80's, it took a lot of letter writing, discussions and effort from a certain individual with Lowther owners to reinstate the Lurcher Show, Show entry was expensive but once in show entries were free and good trophies and prizes were available and the Lurcher events were well supported.

Never let the terriers runalong side him or try to fight over it, it can ruin retrieving. Persevere until he retrieves with dogs in close proximity, it may be hes jealous or frightend of the terriers, good luck mate.

    They would earn more support and money if they included Lurcher and Whippet classes but they have always been biased towards them.

    Used to be a good show, but I'm biased ha, gate entry expensive but free to enter once in, always a good turn out and decent lurchers on show, has been taken over by country fair firm so dont know about prices and entries, no reason why it shudnt be as good as it used to be.
