BGD 6,384 Posted October 14, 2017 Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Cracking looking mutt and an interesting cross My uncle had a Kerry blue x staff in the 90s was a great yard dog and loved a bit of bushing and ratting. Would have liked to see the results from putting him over a running dog. Quote Link to post

A real nice cross that one stonewall did he make oldbones mate Quote Link to post
stonewall 1,913 Posted October 14, 2017 Author Report Share Posted October 14, 2017 Are their any working Kerry blues left does anyone know. Cheersi reckon their rarer than hens teeth. Thought as much a mate had one 30 year ago he was a real clever dog loved crashing through cover surprised they weren't used more in lurcher breeding. A real nice cross that one stonewall did he make oldbones mate the funny thing was when he was young he had got a few raps of electric wire like most lurchers.while out lamping and day time hunting and it didnt phase him too much.it wasnt until he got too 8ish that he got roasted on a good few wet windy nights out lamping,and that f****d him. so much so if u were between game and wire hed run the lenght of wire looking for a break then make a bee line towards game,during the course hed be fine,in the end i began to lose game with him it was either go under each wire and then slip,but to be honest i didnt mind hed given me a good few yrs sport and i retired him too a friend.that fucken wire i reckon has destroyed many a lurcher.a long answer to ur question.

My uncle's dog looked like an ugly broken coated leggy staff but he had a real nice shape to him and had buckets of drive, sure he could have made some handy lurchers but my uncle was never interested in breeding from him.
