I've a deer grey x saluki bull grey who is feathered looks like a pure saluki and a women approached me and said Is he an afghan hound no I replied he's a Lurcher with lots of different breeds in him I told her his breeding,she said but lurchers are small and hairy I said no a Lurcher can be any size depending on what the sighthound is crossed , she then said so is a whippet a Lurcher no I replied it's a sighthound eventually she got the idea but then she said my English bull terrier was an illegal breed and do I fight him WTF I dont know how some peoples minds works.

A couple of the comments i got actually came from members off here -

One of the Greyhound one was asked in my gallery i think and had a is he whippet x in there too somewhere Ak but suppose it can be hard to tell from pictures like

A pedigree is just the dogs lineage usually over 3 generations - so maybe that question isn't as stoopid as it first appears.

Was once told that my bull lurcher of 23" had Dane in it - woman had worked with Danes all her life and knew these things.

My Borzoi is apparently an EBT cross due to the long nose.

The 1 I gt is- duz ur big dog (3yr am bull 26tts) eat all the little ones food (13 month saluki/grey x whippet 23tts) when your not looking.

I usualy sigh and walk away n the odd time say my piece [bANNED TEXT] walking away

I met a lad in wexford ,he had a big over weight collie x with him,it hardly looked like a lurcher,but i asked about it and he said it was was not a full lurcher only half,

and i had some gobshite argue with me about my wheaten x apbt ,telling me that it was a Kerry red, i said are you sure your not thinking about a Kerry blue

[Millet 4,497]

Myths :hmm: I heard Millet as a Minshaw.

Funny you should say that..a young lad walked upto me the other day and said to me..is that a 3/4 Minshaw 1/4 collie.. ..there is some numpties out there..

In the last week my misses was told by a bloke with a whippet pup that lurchers only have rough coats and if it's got a short coat it's a greyhound, and I was asked by a women with a old lurcher I bumped into if my bitch was a pure bred lurcher ? I replied as pure as a dog made up of 3 different breeds can be.....She looked at me like I was a retard!! I'm pretty sure I'm not lol

 

Had anyone else heard any equally stupid myths or stories about lurchers ?

the best we hear all the time on the hunting life is a English bred dog will be no good in Ireland hahahahaha
