marshman 7,756 Posted August 11, 2015 Report Share Posted August 11, 2015 (edited) To be truthful if it was a lurcher I wouldn't travel that far but then I'm not a lurcher man . I would only need a long dog for mooching nowadays so like W. Katchum said most cur lurcher dogs would do so why not one that's close to home. Now a well bred terrier pup that's bred well I'd travel for and have done many times. Although I don't blame folk for saying its to far to go for something if they're not that into it wouldn't want them owning it . Lads forgive me here please but are general purpose lurchers not ten a penny ? ( I'm not talking lurchers that are bred for a specific job) I look in the lurcher section and there are so much variety and they mostly seem to do the job required . One lad in the bushing section got he's from a local pound and its seem a cracking dog . Edited August 11, 2015 by marshman Quote Link to post Share on other sites
