MINSHAW .....


Recommended Posts

Poacherspocket22, A great topic about top working lurchers doing what they were bred for. Some good photos and some great tales. Some excellent input from other members and your lads, without a doubt the best and probably the longest thread on this forum. Can anyone give me any information as to how " Tex minshaw" is bred and how it ties into the minshaw line, I have a bitch pup out of this dog put over a whippet bitch bred out of a daughter of glen "strike whilst the irons hot". Cheers .

 

A few lads on here will certainly give you the info your looking for Sherlock...brockdog,busher or hairyface..they are all often on this thread..i'm sure Tex has something to do with a dog called Tig a bull x which carries Minshaw blood..any of those lads will clarify that either way though as they know far more than me on that side of things :yes: ...ATB Andy. :victory:

Brockdog, the tex I am on about was born up your way and went to alass on a farm, it then went to a lad in Wales and ended up in Leigh lancashire. I have been told by a member on here that it is well bred but am unsure of its breeding, cheers .
