Should have bred from Sparrow, but never did. Now I have only the two Airedale lurchers, and they're 7 1/2 years old now. I might have been tempted to breed from Schuck, but it's getting so hard to find good homes for pups these days. I'm looking for a traditional type of lurcher: Deer/Grey Collie/Grey type: it will be the last pup I rear, so wanted to end my days with a similar type to the lurchers I had for so long. Something that's easy to live with, but from sound stock; just for a bit of mooching and lamping. Tomo: thanks. I'll have a look. 5 Quote Link to post

jukel123 6,570 Posted November 23, 2017 Report Share Posted November 23, 2017 (edited) Trevor Cook Cooklands deerhound. He was on here. He bought Dohertys stock and has continued with it plus working outcrosses. They all work,but I don't think he has a first cross stud dog. Just pedigree working deerhounds. He is a genuine bloke.

It was the Airedale who had feet as flat as pancakes, and a build that was never designed to stand up to years of hard work in the field: very straight in the stifle. I think the Airedale guys in the states must work their dogs differently to the way I worked Dill: maybe not as much, or on much softer ground. Who knows. Quote Link to post

Do you remember the member on here who imported an Aussie stag? He used it for tracking pigs. Would that dog not suit your purposes? Oops ignore above. Just re read your post you are not breeding a litter. Edited November 23, 2017 by jukel123 Quote Link to post
