He`s coming along nicely,, retrieving well,, including dead hares etc,, had him out for a shine the other night and he watched the action with interest,, no whining on the lead either , which is good,, will be having him out to do some jumping this week,, 8 1/2 months now,, and 25",, quite pleased with him like !

hope he does well for you.i know you got him from hancocks but what is the breeding % grey border beardie ? if you dont mind me asking. atb.

i saw the dog advertised as lurcher x lurcher. i thought hancock only used greyhounds as dams or was it a misprint or otherwise?

Ey up, thanks for the comments

 

He was lurcher to lurcher, Sallys own dog( 1/4 border 3/4 grey dam) was bred with tweedle dum, (3/4 beardie, 1/4 grey sire), they were keeping him back, but let him go as he is black, and they want merles,. You`re right though,, the lurcher to lurcher is unusual for them.

 

Since I got him,, he`s filled out and quickened up, He`s well natured as well. which is a bonus in my house (kids galore). He still climbs through fences if he can, but the jumping will come.

I like a bit of of beardie in a lurcher, I've got a 3/4 ghound 1/4 beardie shes been a great bitch really tractable immense prey drive and a great catch rate, she is also rather tidy at taking more than her fair share of feather, so mate I wish you atb with the pup.

had a beardy cross myself out of remus in 1989. made a decent rabbit dog day/night. also caught a decent number of hunted up hares. a dog with a real good temperament also.

Wee update

 

He`s done OK , been out ferreting,lots, knows what rabbits are and want to catch them lol,, had him out on the lamp on his own and he was ballistic keen,, just needs to pick them up on the run,, but i will not push him,, he`ll get it in good time,, really shaping up well,, great nature, fekin nutjob,, and a total thief.

Looking good mate, strong, good coat and feet on him, you know yourself it will come with time and I have a bitch here who can jump for fun but half a chance will go through obstacles.
