So basically they add a shaggy coat and height, but the height needs breeding out via other crosses to make them an all round useful lurcher, it would be a lot less hassle using a pure greyhound.

Or better still a sal/grey. The thing is they will always appeal to a minority of lurcher enthusiasts. They are definitely not the killing machines of other crosses but their temperament is superb, they look stunning and their relaxed outlook is good for the blood pressure. Sometimes they are too relaxed I know and the problem is getting decent deerhound blood instead of the hulking overgrown show ponies that Crufts has produced.

'Sly'

another character was 'The Mighty Josh'. Been said plenty but it is weird how that cross has gone from being so popular to how it is now
