  1. Obviously don't know what parents looked like but yeah seen plenty like this on the lean side. Gonna keep feeding her good food though and regular exercise and hopefully have her in fine fettle soon.
  2. Well she is officially with us now. Put on 2.1kg in first 2 weeks, finally able to go out this weekend so had her on a short walk yesterday. She still a flight risk and hesitant to come back close in so will be keeping her on long line and only letting her off on my permission where there is a couple of full enclosed fields.
  3. I'll try keep the post updated to her progress, she's actually starting to stretch out now instead of being all hunched up so is nice to see her finding her feet a little bit. Cheers.
  4. This was my initial thought but obviously can only base it on information the rescue people have provided us
  5. Think Mrs wants to keep her around regardless what I think so I imagine we will be keeping her. Like you say hopefully I can get a good bond with her within the next few weeks and she will begin to trust us much more.
  6. Thank you, time will tell I guess but she will have plenty of time put into her and be taken along nice a slowly.
  7. If we decide to keep her then fingers crossed. From what we've been told there was several dogs of breeding age that were tied up and the guess is that it's a pup from 2 of those. Apparently a saluki, a whippet, a spaniel, a collie and a dachshund that we've been informed of. But as you say she looks like she's got a decent amount of saluki in her.
  8. Can certainly be done then.
  9. Mrs has taken in a foster dog from local charity as she knew id be happy to have it around. The pup has apparently been locked in a create since birth (thats what they have been told) currently estimated to be around 5 months old, emaciated and scared of people but loves other dogs and not fazed by kids at all. She is now getting more confident around us though and allowing us to stroke her and not bolting everytime we move. Her diet mainly consisted of white bread according to people who bred her so first thing we have done is get her on some decent food and try build her up. She could h
  10. I completely agree with the day dog sentiment, for start it would be wasted due to fact I'm not gonna be chasing the 3 from 3 and i dont want to be wasting another dog thats got so much potential. The bitch I had was bred from 2 absolute dynamite dogs and not being able to do her justice really got to me so wouldn't want to go there again. I could be completely over thinking things and in fact "any old lurcher will do". But uts been good to hear what others think.
  11. Got to admit I've never really been too struck on beddys, my mate had a beddy x and he's soft as butter and a lovely dog he just doesn't do anything for me in terms of owning 1, that said he doesn't work him so seeing 1 work might change my opinion
  12. Jesus christ, didnt even offer to cook me dinner first, neanderthal!
  13. Yeah potentially, must admit that's where I started searching again, have had head turned by few different types though
  14. It's all in the details. Never been called churlish before, maybe your of softer soul than I first thought
