Dan Edwards 1,134 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 Huskies dont run, they walk. They are not built to "run". As far as endurance though, nothing, absolutely nothing can come close. Our trial bred running hounds are as close as you will get and they are not even in the same league. I would never want an endurance bred sight hound. Its idiotic in my opinion. I have a staghound gyp that will take a critter out of sight for a long long long ways and I dont need anymore stamina than that and would actually prefer a whole hell of alot less.

Dan Edwards 1,134 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 I have hard that when they are crossed they can run. The sled dog boys hate that about crossing the grey with them at least for the first cross cause the dogs spend too much time lurchin forward and running and feckin everything up so I most definately believe you. I will go for endurance as far as recovery time type endurance. What I mean is run after run endurance is good to go but I cant stand when this gyp takes one of them big bunnies on a 3 mile hike.

poacher3161 1,766 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 We all seem to be going on about actual stamina [bANNED TEXT] imho recovery ability can be more important in a lamping dog its one of the reasons i have always prefferd lurcher to lurcher bred dogs as the ones i have had seem to recover faster than the f1x and 3 quater bred lurchers that i have seen and owned over the years but saying that a beddy/grey a mate used to own was proberbly the fastest recoverer after a run i have seen.The T Mcphee bred dogs were also stamina packed dogs with a very quik recovery rate.IMHO the beddy hybred has also got a very lot to offer in the stamina stakes for hard worked lurchers.atb dell Quote Link to post
FUJI 16,275 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 I think alot depends what exactly each one of us calls stamina-laden? Over the years i've seen coursing bred dogs run 6 mid-winter daytime hares,i have also witnessed a lurcher catch over 60 rabbits solo on the lamp running possibly times that night and even the "unforgiving" crime of seeing a dog catch 17 brown hares single handed on the lamp running atleast 21 if my memory serves me correct? Which of those dogs has the most stamina? All the best PP. Quote Link to post

rizla 0 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 been thinking about breeding the ultimate stamina running dog, a lot of people got opinions on the ultimate cross for stamina .ie, saluki, border collie, bull, ect. my thoughts and my thoughts only - suluki, fellhound, siberian husky, border collie, apb terrier. the correct percentage of all these breeds crossed with the correct percentage of greyhound would produce an amazing dog for > stamina, drive, hunting ability, intelligence, speed ect, < a lot of people will say stick to whats been proven over the years, im not one for tradition, why not try to breed a mongeralised exceptional running dog that beats tradition. years to opinions please . ( no infentile comments) have you got 50 years to try . Quote Link to post
whin 463 Posted October 20, 2009 Report Share Posted October 20, 2009 were i run its all speed and stamina first you have to get the best fenland coursinng dogs then a very good colli type real working type with wind ,breed them and it works ive done it twice and its worked but only used very good dogs and of prover stuff ,we get few rabs few foxes all hare hare roe roe flushing to guns, only dogs with running stamina bred into them last ,fitness is paramount but if not bred in stamina like a fen dog well theyll blow up , this is not a hearsay this is how it is ,i bred a bitch that could run near enough greyhound speed and a cambridge cup winning dog that could catch his game quick or when he was on big big land last for 5 minutes or more the pups and grand pups turned out good more stamina than mother at times and more agility and pace than father at times , but you have to have the bloodlines to a start and the work load to test a dog mate Quote Link to post
