Lightforce 140 with 100w bulb (near enough same beam as 170 but smaller unit and easier to work with) and variable power a must for a good few reasons!

I think they are one of the best crosses for a good alrounder! the two pure deerhound and ghound are made for crossing.

Dava Have a box full but takes an age scanning!

I have had two and a mate has had one, all top drawer! Beerdie crosses, feet like iron, bags of brains and game as lions.

Feed it properly and walk the thing, easy!

Gaffer I have couple of pure deerhounds you are more than welocome to come watch them work this season.

Listen guys, I ain't saying no deerhounds work or doxhope ain't any good, what I am saying they are designed to work on hill ground and there is no point in using a pure deerhound for anything else than hill ground. I would be very surprised if any pure deerhound in the uk could out match a good lurcher at it's job, they won't get near a beddy/whippet for rabbits or a saluki type on hares they even struggle on lowland deer compared to lurchers. I am a deerhound fan but I am realistic at the same time, good fun but will always come up short unless used on the hill. There are a few t

Buy a first cross collie/gray for rabbits, waste of time trying to keep a working strain by running them on rabbits in grass parks they will never show you if they are up to the original job so whats the point?? Seen your doxhope dogs run few times on white hares, In my opinion they done well but no better or worse than most of the more serious coursers dogs on the hill. Am I write in saying they originated rosslin bred dogs?

Deerhounds are designed to run the Scottish highlands the highland ground is the worst running ground for a dog imaginable and you cant appreciate it unless you see it and try to walk it. They are big dogs that have to be very durable with good feet and plenty of stamina to run red deer over horrendous ground they after the chase they need to keep them at bay until the owner catches up or they have to try kill them, hard job never mind after 10 min chase over highland ground. When people say someone has working deerhounds they are small and racy made! not sure they are traditional work

What pup you getting Jim?

I for any reason you raise your voice maybe not even at the dog you dont want it running away pissing its self! Think that what he means
