lol if i wanted a dog for round a hole id grab any old shite bull x that are ten a penny the job easily done by one thats wank 

Get real thats like saying any old shit saluki will catch a hare ...any dog will rag one of them about by the ear or arse I mean properly do em and id say yours would pack it on a fox up the field  jack it proably watch it run into the horizon wasn't even talking about heavy fellas anyway lol different story all together pal  there's far better crosses out there for an all round game running dog that'll be far better suited to putting more stuff to bed than a saluki or cross and if it wasn't for having big massive open ground they wouldn't even be thing dirt

if your running all edible a bull x is like having a lada how will that do off road against a subaru lol come on 

imagine having a dog and needing certain land to kill something or passing on runs to save the dog for one closer or having to slip one after the other to pull something lol jib that lol

Small land any lad with a decent game running dog will put yours to bed or give you a decent run and if you havnt seen different cross of lurcher bar a saluki cross get out more imagine having dog and talking about subaru off roading  we don't do that over here  mate that's what puts farmers heads away and gives folks bad names and passing on runs I'd say you'd pass on the 2nd fox run  up your hedge if it caught one never mind not slipping on hare because its to far away lol

i’ve been around pure salukis that if you left your 1/4 bull grey in a yard with it then it would be dead in no time mate just horrible dogs want pts some are evil same with pure greys some a them kill fox quicker then a bull x love them 

 

i run edible all land for a season with an ain not to blank or as few as i can if you think theres a tyoe better then a coursing bred for that i’d love to see it 

ferreting lamping bunny’s there types better 

fox

big deer a lot not single

 brovk again better types 

 

but for running all edible out that gets up been hardy taking loads a running and hammer none come close in my opinion mate the ultimate all rounder

What if they like to run fallow regularly, they ain't doing better than good bull crosses, they just won't have the power or the stomach for it when you encounter a specimen that doesn't want to play ball.

For muntys you want a dog that wants to kill it quick. The dogs needs a throat hold. They scream like mad and the bucks can thrash and cut a dog quite badly if it’s just grabbing a leg and not trying to kill it.. you can’t teach a throat hold, that’s just instinct in some dogs. My old coursing dog was a leg grabber…. Caught loads of deer but killed very few. If muntys are your game, your dog will need to be good in cover.. large coursing dogs aren’t suited to this.. their legs are too long and aren’t fast enough in thick cover to keep up. Great for lamping them but daytime hunting is a different ball game. My beddy cross has a great nose and jacket, is good in cover and wants to kill what it catches… that would be ideal if you were looking to hunt munty.
