dogmad 0 Posted November 25, 2009 Report Share Posted November 25, 2009 Hi there, has anyone out there had any experience of 3/4 Bull 1/4 Greyhound bred Lurchers. The reason being I am keeping two pups back out of a litter I have just bred. This was an accident mating, admittedly, but my old lurcher bitch is getting on a bit, so I would be looking for a new dog shortly. Do you think there will be problems with tractability. The Sire is 24", 65lbs, he retrieves rabbits, etc. The Dam is a different kettle of fish, she is an Irish Staffie. She is approximately 55lbs and 21", she is prone to throwing a deaf ear, once in a while. She is a very eager and avid hunter, happy to enter bramble, etc. She also marks rabbits in walls and burrows. If anyone can give me some points as to what problems I might encounter I would be very grateful. Also if anyone is interested in a pup I would be willing to let them go cheap to working homes so that we could keep in touch and monitor their progress. The sire is out of some very well bred dogs from the Essex area. Thanks dogmad. P.S. This is a photo of the Sire. Link to post Share on other sites
