  1. Oh god Dale I am so sorry, I only met him briefly but I really liked him! I lost a young lurcher chasing deer, it is devastating! I am gutted for you, take care R.I.P Solo
  2. Nice looking dog, looks very much like my dog, Spook, how old is he?
  3. I totally agree! My last lurcher spent his first 6mths in a shed, he never shaw a thing, wore a collar, been on a walk or in a car. He was a great dog but he was so needy and had so many odd fears! Just so unfair when people breed pups and then put little if any time into them! I went for this pup becuase he was living a normal life, he was being socialised and having a ball! He has carried on having fun and has very little stress in his life, just fun, That is how it should be for a all pups!!
  4. I can't log on as Spookster because I have been off line and don't have the same email address, can't remember my password Thought I would update you on the little man! He is doing really well, seem bomb proof for a pup, nothing phases him! Here are some pixs of him hope all is well with you?
  5. Thanks for the info! I want the full set up too! would be interested to know what the courier price is too? Edited to say I did it again, i logged on ages ago at work as a friend as I forgot my password. I sometimes forget I am still logged in as lily so I am realy spookster and i will be in touch
  6. you can tell he was flattened by his brothers, when my dogs play with him, he flattens himself when the get near( lol) he's well confident now maybe it is better he came on his own ! The new collar is for IG, not deerhound lurchers like the one I brought with me (lol) i can't believe I ve done this again, I forgot my password at work so used my friends to log in one day and then forget I am not logged in as spookster

  8. Thet look great dogs do people wok them in the UK? When I was in the Indian Jungle, we had camp dogs that looked very similar but Sandy coloured, there were quite preparded to take on a Lepord, Monkey or even elephant that came near the camp (sadly often paying with thier life in the case of an elephant). One of the guides tried to explain they were hunting dogs used for hare and had been bread in the villages of Southern India (I supect the breeding may not have been to selective!) Any idea what these could have been? The only Indian sighthounds that I can think of off the
  9. They are two seperate breeds - the Sloughi and the Azawakh. You can see the differences between the breeds here: http://sloughi.tripod.com/SFAA/SlSAAZ.html There is ongoing debate on Sloughi vs Saluki too - you can read an interesting article here about it http://sloughi.tripod.com/SFAA/MitochondrialDNA.html I only joined this forum recently in the hope to see if there are any Sloughis or Sloughi x dogs that are worked in the UK. The breed is numerically small here, and few are bred. The only existing kennel usually sells to show homes or the occasional pet home. I have rea
  10. I have always had rescued running dogs, they have all been great dogs, for me! I am not against breeding and think if you are going to work your dog it is best to know what you are getting. I love the challenge of bringing a rescue adult dog on! I think for a change I may buy a pup for the first time in my life, but I have to admit I am struggling with the idea, knowing there are more of my lot out there needing someone like me. For once I want the easy option. I want to choose my pup, and hopefully not have a hand shy, food shy nervous dog that needs extra care just to have a normal life! I
  11. I have to agree with you! Take the dog to the vet. Sure it will heal ok if it doesn't get infected, If it is stitched it will heal quick if you leave it it will take a while and be quite messy! I think the dog deserves better?
