Since I joined this forum I have enjoyed reading posts for this little dog. I’m the same, can’t understand why nobody took you up on the offer for a stud dog.
-
That’s a fair point. But then they need to be Totally honest with people who are looking to pay decent money for a pup from them if they breed.

What’s in the Lurcher side of her breeding shortstraw?
-
Belgian malinos or Dutch herding xs

Bumped into someone local the other day. They had a Mali x. Said They thought it was Mali to a straight deerhound. I would have thought Mali x deer grey. Stood about 26tts. Cracking looking dog and a shame it’s just a pet. It certainly looked the business and I would def try something similar. Never seen either cross work but as said there’s good and bad in every breed. -
Be nice strong dogs them longers ?
-
Yep but more bushing them than hunting out. If that makes sense
-
Some are just bird crazy. Get it out early enough on rabbit and it should soon get it. I’ve got a spaniel x terrier (more towards the spaniel) he ain’t that interested in Birds. Crazy for anything else though.
-
If you get the right one I don’t see any reason why it wouldn’t do what you wanted. If it’s going out with other bushers it should soon learn. I’ve had my mates pet one tag along a few times and it soon clicks on with my busher. Not sure if you will ever get it to hunt ground game only.

Great pictures and write up Fuji. Like you say, you got to make the most and get out when you can. ?
-
Yep never used heaters or lamps. Like you say, rub down, decent bedding and a dry draught free kennel and they will be fine ?
-
I’m thinking of going with the wax paper bedding. Never used a heat lamp/tube. The kennel is insulated and ply lined. Even if it’s freezing outside the kennel is nice and warm when I pop my head in.

Plenty of rabbits about. Busher was yapping at something in the cover. You need more than one busher to work up there and flush. Cover is thick and large areas. Just good to be out ?
-
Sure is mate. Let me down when you are down this way again

Was supposed to be going up home to North Wales this week but the van packed up. We decided to have a walk up on Dartmoor early doors on Sunday. It’s a great place to walk out and we barely seen anyone. The 2 dogs worked well and the young bitch is coming on great.

Nice route up that Tomo. Too busy in that area for me at the moment. ?
-
Spot on mate. Looking good. ?
-
Well done lads. Glad you managed to run a few.
-
I know. If I was spending more time up in North Wales I would have put my name down from the start.
-
They are little crackers. I wouldn’t know where to start picking. I’d be happy with whatever was going or do what I usually do and let the kids pick ?. Be great to see how these get on. Hopefully people will keep us updated. ?
-
That would be my only worry with breeding. I would be happy to put the work in and give them a good head start. I would just worry about who they were going to. If you’re in decent circles and can have some decent people put their names down For a pup then it might be worth breeding.
-
Sorry mate but I’m busy the next few months. If you need anything shifting it will have to wait until January ?
-
That’s it mate. The dam was similar looking to the pups. She’s pretty much along the lines of collie bull grey ?
-
It’s a litter sister to the one you seen me with at the comp Tomo. They are pretty much saluki collie bull grey prob a bit of whippet in there a bit back.
