Boopadoopadoop 6 Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 This is my 4 year old Lurcher. I have always wondered what might be in him, particularly cause of his large bunny-like ears lol He stands at 26 and a half inches to the shoulder and is quite active and fast! He has yet to match a dog that can outrun him. His ears aren't permanently erect, he pins them back when running and when relaxed, they are only up when he is alert. I found him as a puppy, he was about 5 weeks old and abandoned in a field. He was covered in mange and fleas, and has since come a long way! If anyone has any insight on what he may be, please let me know! I would love to hear your opinions! 1 Quote Link to post

BIG G wheton machine 1,594 Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 I wouldn't comment on breeding, but I'd just call it a lucky basstard that you found him and give him a good home, 2 Quote Link to post

Boopadoopadoop 6 Posted June 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 It was by complete chance too! Was walking by a field where people dump rubbish and the like, heard crying and had to go investigate, poor thing was a bag of bones and being eaten alive. Now he is a loveable dope and a fantastic hunter! :-) I presume he may have been deliberately dumped there, maybe a runt or just not up to standards! No one came forward for him so he's all mine now :-) 1 Quote Link to post
