Daveo 61 Posted June 27, 2009 Report Share Posted June 27, 2009 I met up with a mate of mine today and he brought his dog along, a wire haired pointer. Its a smart looking dog really big and strong but athletic looking too. Top and bottom of it was if i wanted him for a stud dog over my greyhound there would be no stud fee I jst wondered what people though of the cross or if anyone had any first hand experiance. I saw one on a lamping video i believe the dog was called Tarn and was a 3/4 pointer but it still caught on the lamp and would tackle fox Quote Link to post

Daveo 61 Posted June 28, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2009 They seem to be a bit of a specialist lurcher and probably not the best cross for me. After a chat with pointer i have decided against breeding this way due to the possibility of the dog opening up and a couple of other points. Cheers for the advice pointer. Quote Link to post

THERE ARE A LOT WORSE CROSSIS OUT THERE Quote Link to post
