The proplem with lurcher to lurcher is uneven litters, for instance if you cross a colie x greyhound with a colie x greyhound some pups will be colie greyhound but some will be nearly all colie and some nearly all greyhound.

So wat would be the ideal dog to put over say a f1x collie/grey bitch.I admit they can be a lot of variation in a litter of lurcher to lurcher bred pups but as long as theirs running dogs ie saluki deerhound grey in the crosses good pups can be produced.atb dell

When does a lurcher become a mongrel? When it no longer looks like a lurcher perhaps? It all boils down to what you need. If you want a dog to catch ferreted rabbits and the odd squater, a f*****g terrier cross will do. If you want soething to take rabbits and the odd heart pulsing well you know then you want something with atleast a bit of leg perhaps. In saying that, I remember a wee scraggy looking bedlington cross bitch one of the mates had when we were younger. Didn't look much, bit of a pet. Infact, he ad to beg his mother to use it, fed nothing but tinned dog food but by f**k could it catch a hare. Rabbits, piece of piss and you wouldn't have given this dog a second look so alas, there isn't any fast and steady rules, a good dog is a good dog. I think a lot if it is like everything else, if it has the heart for the job but like everything else including people, if its bred from workers, it'll probably become a worker.

I agree to some extent, nothing wrong with lurcher x longdog, what ever genes the lurcher passes, the pups are still 50% running dog. For an f1 lurcher I would either use pure running dog or longdog x .

No you havent drawn the short straw as its been proved beyond doubt that a good lurcher to lurcher bred dog far outshines most f1x saying that you can only go on the type of dogs we have had.atvb dell

I'm not saying you can't get good dogs from lurcher x lurcher, just that you get litter wastage,which can be avoided.
