coverdogs 888 Posted August 5, 2015 Report Share Posted August 5, 2015 Has that got a bit of wirehaired pointer in it coverdogs? Looks a bit like it with the markings could be wrong though. Yes Blackdog92 he is gwp x saluki bull grey.Curious as to how you would rate him on fox etc.He just finished his first season and done very well single handed, i never rate a dog fully on his first year but on a scale of 1 to 10 i would give him a 7 on gameness, and on hunting up, marking , and drive an 8 which is pretty good for a first season as i would say i only had 2 lurchers that i would rate as 10 after 3 or 4 seasons. What cross were you running prior to this dog mat My last dog was a collie grey x saluki grey prior to that it would have been mostly bull crosses or bull wheaten, i got the idea of the pointer cross lurcher after seeing 2 gwp x harriers work they were outstanding dogs. has it paid off? I would say so far it has but we are still in the learning process. 1 Quote Link to post

And do you rate him better than your bulls or wheatons then mate?.......just asking cause that's some pretty high scores you gave him and having never seen a cross of this type I am intrigued. It's hard to compare him to a bull or wheaten as he works completely different to the terrier crosses, he has a better nose and is more intelligent and would pick things up a lot quicker a better allrounder i would say, as for gameness is there anything that can compare to a good bull or wheaten. i would say he is the most biddable and loyal dog i have ever owned he just seams to want to please all the time. but as i say it's his first season past and we are both learning something about each other every day. A.T.B. Coverdogs "i would say he is the most biddable and loyal dog i have ever owned he just seams to want to please all the time." I don't think this comes from the wirehair side lol. He's a good looking lurcher and I look forward to your developing opinion. ATB 1 Quote Link to post

BlackStreak 498 Posted August 9, 2015 Report Share Posted August 9, 2015 Wolfhound, Deerhound, Dane, Boxer, aka "pig dog" This is my Lapua gyp, 11 months old. She has been an exceptional pup and a natural talent. Great hunt drive and very hard dog when it comes to catching and holding pigs. She is very fluent mover and covers a lot of ground with her big strides. 5 Quote Link to post

She is very fluent mover and covers a lot of ground with her big strides. Just curious but why is the boxer blood added? I didn't breed this line of dogs so i don't know why the man added it for certain, but I've heard that a boxers have the makings of good finder holder abilities, at least those than can breath right and don't have such a severe over bite. I do not have any first hand experience with boxers though. I do know out of all the breeds of dogs that the Boxer has the most bullenbiesser blood in it. Close second is the Dane. Makes sense to me lol. Quote Link to post
