hi im looking to get a lurcher some time in the near future maybe august time and i dont exactly know what type of lurcher would suit me soo if i explain could someone point me in the right direction

i do alot of ferreting and would like to do some coursing aswell i would prefer a bitch and not too big soo if anyone could tell me what lurcher would suit me best would be great

p.s it would be my first lurcher soo i would like something thats pretty easy to train and that would teach me aswell

collie x greyhound

 

collie x whippet

 

collie x grey x saluki x whippet

 

collie xs aint exactly coursing dog but will take hare and make good ferreting dogs plus are easy to train, saluki xs aint most peoples first choice as a ferreting dog but are exellent coursing dogs but can somtimes be stubborn. just my opinion mate but id go for a dog with saluki and collie in the mix with a bit of whippet to keep the size down
