Working ibizian hounds

[matty 52]

Just wondered if any does or has worked ibizian hounds or are they just for show? my bitch is half grey half ibizian, got her as a rescue pet when very young, wish i worked her more as she is very strong and very keen, but has been a very very slow at maturing.

not an ibizan hound but my sisters got a pharaoh hound that would have made a good rabbiting dog. it was just a pet but it was always bringing back bunnies live to hand, she couldnt handle it and sold it, id have liked to have kept it but my dog doesnt get on with other dogs

Hello Matt. Ive got a Ibizian x grey which was a rescue as well. Been trying to get her working but it hard work. She hunts up to much and gets stuck on bushes where there is only old smells. She yaps alot when chasing as well. I agree that she is very keen and got a lot more stamia than my lurcher (collie grey whippet), but not as quick either.

Seen them working in spain, a friends friend has 12 he works as a pack. Very noisy hunting style, as they use

them to flush out and catch in rough scrub land, so their bred to bark a lot when they're hunting to alert the gun man to where the rabbit might be.
