The sire to the one in the snow was Doxhope Knights Errant and he told me the two on the cover of his book “Deerhounds and Deerhound Lurchers  “, these two;

were her grandparents and the bitch , Doxhope Ambecky, which is pictured in the book jumping a gate, was the best working pure he had.

Cheers.

My pals young deer/bull/grey x grey; Cheers.

I've stood there my self saying.  " how the hell did it miss that " the grabbers grab on to the misses . But when a dog does something special,  they say little 

It’s gone a bit quiet, so here’s a pic of a working deerhound my pal sent up to Scotland to work with a golden eagle; Cheers.

Sent me a lovely letter when I ordered his book as a youngster many years ago , advising me that it was a rough old game the dogs and to stick to what was right and not be influenced by what other people thought

He asked me if he could use pics of my dogs in the second edition of his book and I sent him a cd of pics but the publisher said the pics had been compressed and they couldn’t use them. 
I used to run whippets on the same tracks as his dad many years ago.

Cheers.

Ashington or Bedlington, I get mixed up between him and Alan who lives where, but near enough no difference, I lived in a little pit village, East Cramlington in the same area, back in the early 70’s, a great area for lurchers and whippets . The Charltons brother, Sankeys dad and Doherty’s dad all had whippets, as did I.

Cheers.

There used to be a comp up Scotland where pure Salukis and deerhounds had field classes in the coursing 

I think they forgot that a lot of folk still coursed pure Salukis
