U.L.D.A 289 Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 if you had a choice out of all the pure breed dogs youd put to the greyhound or any type of sight hound to make a lurcher what would you choose to hunt lamp with eg staff ebt collie bedlington and what would be best to fill the pot with rabbits not saying all would be fast enough but what would you choose or a lab Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Born Hunter 17,960 Posted September 27, 2012 Report Share Posted September 27, 2012 The right type of pastoral dog, something biddable and trainable but hard and a bit wild, fearless with any stock or intruders. The right sort of good old fashioned farm collie would be a good place to start looking, but any pastoral dog fitting the description could be considered. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
