Fur and feather


Recommended Posts


My hound has placed them into categories of, Fur = needs to be chased and squashed. Feather = unless its really close and I can be bothered then I might go 50%, and if its a pheasant I'm gonna pluck it.

He's had duck, pheasant and a gull, but as he gets older He chooses his runs on feather unless its in close proximity.

He's a lurcher to lurcher mostly grey with whippet, collie, deer and bull and a smidge of stubbornness.

What would you say was the best small lurcher cross for taking fur and feathers in day and night

My old bedy whippet good dog for feather,he took plenty kaneys,he would snaffle them in long grass mostly and I see him take them on the run befor take off,

i see him pin them with his paws and wait for me to deal with it ,

wish he was young again !!

That white dog bit like my ol dog

mostly whippet with a touch of bedlington and his mam had a bit of sal in her .

me and him we done some miles and he put plenty away in his time and punched well above his size ,

He's next to me now ,no longer works but he'd still break his heart to catch.

? Don't think there is an actual best type,...I've seen all sorts of lurchers, big and small,..trying their hand at a multitude of tasks...

I don't do a lot nowadays, but I do like to get my money's worth out of a jukel...

It's fun to give everything a try...?
