lurcher and terrier kennelled together


Recommended Posts

To the people that say don't kennel terrier and lurcher together, is that just for an outdoor kennel (i.e. confined space), or would you apply the same rule for dogs that are kept in the house? Obviously you wouldn't feed them together, or leave toys or chews out. But kept in the same house with plenty of room, would that be OK?

 

Hows it going Rob!

 

I think its different in the house, because the house is YOUR place, the dogs should know that you're in charge of that house, you're the dominant one so any messing around then its you they've got to deal with! In a Kennel its different, that Kennel becomes their own space where you dont even go apart from cleaning it out and feeding them. In the house you can keep an eye on them easier too. So I personally don't think it applies (apart from acceptional cases of course).

 

But are you there 24 hours a day 365 days a year to supervise them...............?

 

Obviously not, but if you were keeping dogs in the house then a bit of common sense would see to it that you take precautions when you're not there (Cage/crates).

 

Quite right! That is how I manage with 3 dogs, 1 big one and 2 wee ones. I would NEVER leave them together unattended..............it only takes a minute for a disaster to strike.

Don't even think of muzzling the pups, now or at any other time. Muzzles should only be used for short periods of time, even the ones which allow dogs to drink. Dogs can't show natural behaviour if th

id separate them mate, otherwise in a couple of months you could have a dead terrier

Seperate them now and save the chance of an accident later on,if a lurcher and terrier decide to have a fall out in the kennel,by the time you get to them,the little fella could be done for.
