Some would have said to hold em back as the was a big animal and growing. A good accumlishment for the big ruff coated one. Sos for the spelling.

One friend i met had one a bitch.he done ferreting and some hares. He said she killed and by hunting at night whilst walkn at night. Good dog ,not massive, ruff coated. Sound bloke. Saw some smooth crosses too, collie

Very true in my opinion Pablo there slow growers but well worth the wait in the end it's my ones 1st season few hairy moments on the lamp to do with fences, but that's to be expected with any pup, she Loves a bit of ferreting to, but my whippet runs rings around her at that game lol

I bet the are , the not stupid. I saw some big handy half crosses. Some of the ones we saw work was crossed to a collie greyhound. But the other man fereting,etc, his other dog had collie/ grey in it. His blue deer/ghound nail a few fox [BANNED TEXT] he was just walkn, an good experienced area for foxey

This cross and the line breeding of them are the supreme coyote dogs of the planes states in the US. I use one for boar. Very fascinating dogs but in fairness, the stag (what we call them) is about the only working sight hound or long dog left working in the US that's not crossed up with other catch dogs like my finder holders

Remember a lurcher courseing meet in the late 70s and a large percentage of dogs were this cross and out of 50 or more dogs not one saluki hybred.

I remember around the eightees a few lurchers around with the deerhound in the mix or lurcher to lurcher cross. Saw a few half cross and as blackstreak said line bred. I saw a straight deerhound other year, the man used to take deer with his cross but this dog hadnt took one.it run a bit.

Brian Pether used to breed some very handy ones in the 80's ithink his daughter carried it on ?? My mate had a big brindle dog bout 28/29" tts. Never caught till he was bout 18months old but once it clicked he took every thing very good hare dog

[BlackStreak 498]

This is mine. He isn't an F1 cross but rather line bred or bred best to best for generations out of coyote dog stock.

To illustrate how hard of a dog he is, I have posted a picture of him holding a big toothy boar caught 1 out by him.
