Well seem as though i have started this thread i should voice my 2 pence worth.
This is what i would call my ideal all-round lurcher
must take all quarry
Ferreting the dog must give solid marks,be steady and sensible and work well around the bury catching bolting rabbits and work well with the longnets,
Lamping the dog would have to run the entire beam find the hidden quarry catch and retrieve if it misses its quarry return straight away no hunting up
general mooching (which is what i do most) the dog needs to run sensible have a solid nose work the cover follow quarry tha
