Can be pal, and I'm sure I've seen a pic of the sire of those pups elsewhere.
I'm sure anyone with half a brain could get to the bottom of it if they were interested.
Sire is a dog called axel

Thats what the mrs says.
To be fair the older I get, the nicer it is coming home and crawling in.
You never think its going to come to you.
Years ago, id be out all night to get whatever I could, now, If its no good, I go home, have a beer and cuddle the mrs. If its good. . . . I stay out.
I know the feeling

Yea on pheasant when the hawk grabs them they are in the air so tail is not bashing about on the ground breaking feathers but when grabbing and holding rabbits on the ground it tends to rub the tail and break feathers

If you do not know that it needs pulling together and closing then I have no hope for you healing this if you do close it rember to leave a drain hole AT THE BOTTOM.

I went and bought a pup a few days ago. I've been looking for a certain 'type' of lurcher for some weeks. I'm perfectly happy with him even if I did have to bath him as soon as I got him home. Yes the yard and kennels stunk to high heavens, yes he gave me a false address, yes the house windows had been boarded up, yes, he lied about his phone number. Yes he liked to talk, but so do I. Yes he spun me patter but frankly I just disregarded most of it as I work on the principle that my old Dad taught me which is "if someone wants your money, disregard anything they tell you about the thing they want you to buy". The dam was with the pups.
The pup I have is healthy and lively and learns *fast*. Within 24 hours, he knows 'sit', 'down' and 'paw'.
Frankly I don't care how the man lives if he treats his animals well.
I must admit that as an ex breeder, I'd be a bit concerned if I still had 5 pups left at over 9 weeks old, but that's not my business.
Unless you know the man, have met the man or been to his property then it's not fair to slag him off.
In the end I paid £500 for him, which was more than I wanted to pay for a pup, but since it was the only litter of the type I was looking for within a 50 miles radius of me so I was happy. Now the dog might be sneered at by some, he will never be hunted, but if he does what *I* want him to do, then I'm happy.
Why would you need a certain type of lurcher if your never going to allow it to do what it's bred to do .

I find all the good dogs that are actually doing the graft are kept quiet so they don't get taken or stolen

Like I say I'm under the impression that any dog can improve but with dogs being sold off at a year old or 18 months, is this people not wanting to put the effort in or have they a duff pup? I cant imagine at 18 months old a dog is anywhere near its full potential
Most popular age for young lurchers to be sold as at that age they are like a stubborn teenager and have selectiff hearing lol and people lose the plot with them
