Is anyone still breeding these Norfolk Tumbler types, I have one and he is an amazing dog but his previous owner chopped his balls off...I'd like another one

Hi, I have a Norfolk Lurcher, I don't hunt with him because he lives up to his name: he's Norfolkin' good at catching anything except a few zeds on the sofa. He's a beautiful soul though, a great house dog. But you probably don't give a toss about that.

Making an ad on Facebook is good, you can get the picture in front of a lot of people wit your same interests doing that.

When I lost my dog everyone couldn't stop telling me it was travellers or gypsies or whatever had it, they were obsessed by blaming them. In fact he was just lost. And I got him back. I even went to my local traveller site to ask their advice I got so paranoid about it.

A lot of dog people are always talking about lurchers being nicked by Gypsies, travellers and p***ys. I never know how justified it is but if they spoke like that about Muslims or something they would be called a racist and a slanderer and the police'd be on them

Brilliant to read this stuff. So few good books about the lurchers out there for people new to them and their history

Hi, I have a shaggy Lurcher and we're just trying to get into hunting a bit more for fitness than anything. He's a pretty lazy dog and looks a bit fat compared to my friend's lurchers, but they are all more whippet crosses and I think he's possibly got some bigger dog, like collie in him. He responds well if there's prey. Other than that he just bumbles around rarely getting into a cannter. I'm wondering if he is a bit overweight and that is why he is a bit lazy but perhaps he's just lazy. I don't know. I'm new to these dogs. I love him a lot though, and he's got very strong back legs and
