GREYHOUNDS

[Sunderland lamper 60]

Has anyone bought a greyhound from pup and brought it on like a lurcher

interested in knowing the ins and outs and the comparison to the modern day lurcher instead of people trying the usual ex racer

cheers

I bet the long sloping fields around the monument would have been a test

There was some strong hares on the bottom fields and over herrington, if you got one in daylight it was a red-letter day as a kid, don't know what it's like nowadays, I would love to walk those fields again with the same childhood attitude, I think bull Cross lurchers are very common around sunderland nowadays, I used to know a kid from South hylton who always had pure saluki, he still has one now but she is old.

I was born in Hendon, the garths,demolished now. The deerhound greyhound in your dog might be Trevor cooks stud, I think he lives town end or Castletown, North side.

The deer/ grey looks like a Platts bred dog. They tend to be smaller and dark brindle. Be interesting to see if Sunderland Lamper can find out.
