If you search Phil Lloyds old posts you might find the one he writes about putting a Deerhound to a whippet and how they turned out

I’ve seen a few like that mate but once they click it’s game on.I love the breed but I think that’s because that’s what it was in the 80s.

 Its a shame you don't see so many now,

Deerhound grey x Collie greyhound be ideal type

My mate said he would breed me one if I wanted another lurcher mate,but there’s nothing about except big game.

think i’m just going to look for a whippet greyhound or just a straight greyhound.

Cheers lads

I know of a very fast whippet greyhound, doesn’t work but killed a deer by accident once lol. Also know a pure greyhound that used to race , now used in the field, Will likely use one of these when the time comes. Unless something else came up

Same round my way ,no rabbits but tons of deer 

The terrier pushed a munty buck out some brambles this morning, the stupid thing tried to run through a sheep fence and got it's head stuck because it's antlers ,I could have knocked it on the head but tied the terrier to a tree and got it free to run for another day ,gyp looked at me in disgust

To be fair....you could argue similar with salukies...

Why did they add greyhound....or good working lurchers...

As with most of our working dogs adding in other breeds often results in a better animal
