  1. Oh dear know ive heard it all a reverse 3/4 cross doing hares north to south, feild and fen, get real, youre talking about lamped hares mate, were they leverets or milky dows a good dog is where you find it. there is one thing for sure as soon as you say a certain type of lurcher cant do something. there will be someone that has the dog to prove you wrong. my first collie greyhound knocked over more hares than my saluki bloodied lurcher and he wasnt as fast as the saluki bred bitch. on merit she should have been better. but she wasnt?? some good dogs and tales coco they look f
  2. Yeah,.been out with the bitch, and had her owner stay down here at my place for a mouch... He was a nice guy,..and very realistic as regards the capabilities of his own reverse three quarter bred,....I've bred similar critters myself,..and although they are undeniably canny,.. they age,..real quick... did this bitch produce anything of note. must have been a good sort ?
  3. that looks a grand dog fh. but he aint as pretty as big ozzy
  4. i never asked for opinion. i asked for some pics and info on the stronger/slower. lurchers . and there opinions are not disregarded. although i may disagree with some. and yes i can hunt over shite. as well as my more attractive and more productive ground. the dog in the pics is a whippet cross. some prettier land.
  5. whinn if i wanted a dog that worked like a collie or spaniel thats what i would keep. or i would use my terriers. i'm talking about a rought and ready partner for ferreting lamping and daytime rabbiting. the same dog would have been handy for foxes pre ban and still is handy for finding wounded game and tracking. this type of dog will get game a plenty with the right owner. mine is worked in quarries old railways old industrial estates rubish tips and just about anywhere there is vermin. my last bitch was a bitsa that had saluki and deerhound in its makeup was a little faster but on the sam
  6. wastage would be whate doesnt suite your needs whinn. i'm not talking daytime dogs. i'm talking about dogs that can run on almost any terrain and still work the next day day in day out. ine had faster dogs. well bred dogs that where decent. but the more speed the more injuries they got. rough and ready dogs that would have a lot in common with captain scarlet
  7. i favour a sturdy type of lurcher. and prefare a dog that can be worked week in week out. without to many knocks. i dont like the speed merchants that get all the limelight. dont get me wrong speed is essential in a lurcher. i just prefare the landrover sort than the farari. so come on lets see some of the work horses. all types and breeds. get your carthorse cin the limelight and tell us about there strengths and benefits over the rockets yis cleanspade
