Bosun11 537 Posted May 1, 2008 Report Share Posted May 1, 2008 feck me mate ive seen some lurchers that can really jump mines not to bad his self buta mini bus!!!! These are quotes i have read in books i found it a little hard to believe but my 6month old pup is clearing 4ft fences with ease am struggling to think what heights he will be clearing when hes older plummers dog jumped on to one and then down the other side at lambourne, wildfinder witnessed it. and mine can jump over a 4 ft wall which is bout 6 ft to get back and they both do it with ease. Yep, I did hear that it was on top then off the other side but if I remember right, the claim was that it had cleared it. Quote Link to post

maddog1974 0 Posted May 2, 2008 Report Share Posted May 2, 2008 I am led to beliaeve that it is important to teach my lurcher to jump. he seems to be getting good at it as he will clear a barbed wire fence with ease. how high can a lurcher jump i have read in books that they have been known to clear a minibus???is there a record out there to be beaten?? my saluki greyhounds can jump 5 foot with easy but my amercian bull dog jump out of a 6 foot run i could not belive it so i think my lurchers could jump 7 easy if the rabbits jumped them Quote Link to post
