Was out after work yesterday and bumped into a mate of mine and got speaking about the different types of lurchers some are just point and slip dogs probably couldnt find a rabbit in the boot of your car but could catch plenty when aimed and slipped at and there thes lurchers that can hunt miles upon miles to find To find one rabbit or pre ban fox !! I love my lurchers hunting and lads that know me its the way I like to work the dogs hate with a passion them walking by my side so lets see some your point and slip lurchers ans breeding and your hunting lurchers ans breeding il start of

Youd be surprised what most " point and slip" lurchers can find given half a chance.

I dunno Ow. . . . I reckon the General knows how to use her nose in the right situation

True, but many don't get given the chance to work out what it's there for. Most point and slip machines, given the opportunity and time will suss it out. But many don't have the basic training to allow that opportunity

never known a lurcher not to put its nose to the ground biggest part of the fun for me is the hunt even if your quarry gets away cant beat a good mooch

Exactly mate. My two are what would normally be classed as point and slip but given the chance they can find quarry in a lot of different situations.

 

A day mooching around some gorse using purely his nose no ferrets or terriers.

 

And my 3/8th 5/8th bull/grey often points game birds and In daytime will often quietly hunt up and catch his quarry ....the first you know of it is when you hear "that noise" ....
