Don't mean to offend anyone, but I would personally be mortified if any lurcher I owned chased a lure.

I've always thought it was dogs that lacked a bit of the old grey matter or dogs that weren't seeing enough of the real thing.JMO.

Someone asked Hardfeather and myself to put our dogs in a display at the Midland last year, someone giving a talk about lurchers and coursing.

The mistake they did was to show our dogs the lure...a fluffy foot Do you think they would waste any energy chasing that..damn right they didnt

I was a bit embarrased actually, most of the people viewing probs wouldnt have realised why they did'nt chase it and probs thought we had dim lazy dogs

Would probably be a good way of exercising the dogs if they would chase it

MOLL.

some dogs are lure chasers some not. mine do both lures and real quarry. perhaps im just lucky, but im not mortified, thats for sure!!!!

[parkstone 24]

ours do both as well (racing/working) and show great keeness at everything.

Same thing happend to us at selby this year my dog had never seen a lure before in his life'Lisa said enter our dog i said thers no way he'l chase it she said he would so like an idiot i listend and enterd him the lure went the other 4 dogs rased after it while i was stood there with the dog just staring at me'he must of been thinking you can think again if you expect me to chase that'proper embarrassed.

my dogs chase lures and work very well i would get rid are be peed right of if my dogs didnt catch game but if they didnt chase a lure it wouldnt really bother me its a bit of fun for summer and winnin is a bonus but they dont lack any grey matter .thanks mark

many years ago i had a very good all rounder, but he would not chase the lure, but he would hav a go at the dog in the front. piks in walshs book longdogs by day, the brindle . well done mark.
