paulhodge 3 Posted July 7, 2009 Report Share Posted July 7, 2009 Im thinking about buying a lurcher to use for rabbiting. mainly ferreting but also a bit lamping. I've been thinking about a bedlinton xwippet or a bedlinton x greyhound. also i wondered if its a good idea to get something with a bit of collie in for the ease of training it to sit or stay and watch over the rabbit waren. Has anyone got good ferreting dogs or know a good breed what would turn out to be good at that type of thing. Thanks for reading. Quote Link to post
