Endgame mate i won't be owning a lurcher untill i find a acd or kelpie x,my bitch i lost was the nearest thing i ever seen or read about to an old school pot filling/mooching/companion dog.She'd see someone a mile away and let me know they were there,she'd catch a ferreted rabbit,bend a hare as good as anything else i've seen given she was a 1/2 cross(within a 100 yrd slip),brought back pigeons live,retrieve cwd single handed and without doubt she'd have put her life on the line for me without question.Might sound i'm being a bit wet about her but she really was a first class bitch in the maki
