    Afternoon. I have a 3/4 greyhound 1/4 kelpie 20 months old. It is the best lurcher I have owned however as I have taken on new work commitments over seas I have no longer the time to look after her. It is a shame to keep a dog of this quality and not get the use out of her. I am just outside Lisburn NI. If anyone is interested in giving a her a good Permanent working home then please PM me for more details. Cheers.

    I have first cross, not out of this breeding but, at 18 months this is his first season, @ 28tts looks big mature dog but still has a few puppy traits about him. Lifted a few rabbits an a long ear, he Is coming on really well, but I will not start him on anything more challenging until well over 2yrs , IMO these dogs need alot of bringing on and the more easy catches you give them to build confidence the better they are. I think deerhound is a fantastic mix for working lurcher, they are a well mannered all round sound dog. But I suppose it's all about the time ur willing to put into them. Atb

    Cheers man, I have two hobs here and it would just save having to separate them when they are older.

    Got into the game by accident, went to the pound with my girlfriend and there was a wee 3 month old collie x there, I had kept gun dogs before, and had done some research, Have never looked back since. Once you get one u'll not have anything else.

    I have a pup that picked up an injury and had to be restricted to a crate for two weeks. I got some advice to change her diet to help with recovery. I started feeding her raw chicken wings and minced beef small amount of brown bread and some grated carrot. Her condition completely changed, coat is shining she has put a bit of weight on, she is only doing a quarter of the crap, and she has completely recovered. I really couldnt get over the change in her. The big dog has just been changed over. I would recomend this to anyone, It is a bit more hassel and slightly more expensive but well wort

    No mate only happened last night. I have her in a travel cage, in the house, to be honst I could let her out cos she is not moving too far, must be bad cos she was a complete live wire before.

    Hi I am looking for a bit of advice. I took posession of a new pup 4 weeks ago. She had an accident last night when playing. Not totally sure how it happened but judging by the bang sounded like she hit the trailer. I took her to the vet because she couldn't put weight on right leg, and was clearly in alot of pain. She stayed over night and got x-ray thankfully not broken but has compressed growth plate. So he gave me anti inflams and told me total rest for a week. She is still in alot of pain. Are there any supplements which I can give her or anything else I can do to help her make a fu

    Hi Yea I have one of similar breeding, 1/2deerhound 1/4collie 1/4greyhound. He is now 17 months I was in the same situation as yourself, They are a very laid back pup and dont take kindly to strong repremanding. Mine still walks to heel when we are out, but as soon as he gets a sent he turns into a different dog. I didnt see any of this until he was a year old, He has a very high prey drive and is facing cover well and will jump anything infront of him, I had my doubts at first, but be patient, I wouldnt change him for anything!!

    Thanks very much lads for the advice, id say he is just too hot judging by the comments, he has a serious coat on him. All the best and I'll keep you updated on his progress! Cheers

    Hello to you all. I am new to this site, I have kept lurchers for a few years now mainly collie crosses. I have a young deerhound x collie greyhound he is 15 months old, He is a brilliant dog , fantastic laid back tempermant but has a high prey drive. I have just been doing a little rough work with him with my friends terriers at the minute until the season starts again, and I am conserned about the dogs stamina. He will have three or four good runs and a bit of rough hunting on his own and he is ready to collapse, If put back on the lead for 5 mins he is ready to go again. Meanwi
