Just baised on having had lurchers for some years now one of x 38 s pups would be just the ticket for you far better than any pup just bred out of an ex track greyhound the choice is yours but my choice would be one of x 38 s pups over any first cross no matter wat it was trust me you edge your bets in getting a decent dog [bANNED TEXT] both perents are workers. :thumbs:

Hello....have pm'd you. I have one of X38's pups. We picked her up 10 days ago.

She is spot-on....obedient, well reared and very receptive. She listens to everything I tell her and can already 'sit' and is starting to retrieve too.She was 8 weeks old yesterday.

We've always had Bed/Whippet/Grey X Bed/Whippet/Grey Lurchers in the past and want her to do pretty much what you're looking for in your Lurcher.

I was really impressed with Steve's litter (X38) and the Dam is a superb bitch with a very good temperament.

I don't think you'd go wrong with one of these pups, they're first-class.

Will try and send you some pics. Have pm'd you.

Kate.

 

P.S. Edited to add, Fen, the pup is around children all day long and is gentle and very laid-back with them ,she doesn't chase indiscriminately and will 'leave it'even at such a young age.She's met our neighbours lambs, next doors' cats and rides with me very day, stuffed down my T-shirt :icon_redface: ...honestly, she really does take everything in her stride!
