Guest hyperion Posted June 29, 2009 Report Share Posted June 29, 2009 im starting to think owning a lurcher is a bit like having a son who rides a motor bike! got the phone call at work this morning............. "dont worry to much but blaines hurt himself" he was out with the dog walker this morning and from what i can gather he flew into some bracken after a squirrel and hit a branch sticking up from a dead tree! he seems fine now just a little stiff and sore and feeling sorry for him self! ive washed it with warm salt water and put a tiny bit of tea tree oil on it, any other tips would be good though! cheers hyperion Quote Link to post Share on other sites
