cúagusgiorraí 57 Posted April 7, 2010 Report Share Posted April 7, 2010 I have seen a few "birds-eye" lurchers over here in Ireland, and they were all in the vets getting their legs put back together or amputated Too big and brittle legged (in my opinion) Quote Link to post

snoopdog 1,256 Posted April 8, 2010 Report Share Posted April 8, 2010 (edited) this might upset a few folk ...but anybody who is serious into hunting would never get any kind of pure bred dog...wether it be a saluki for hares whippet for bunnies or a borzoi for what ever they are used for ...you cant beat dogs that are bred for the job....yes you will get the odd pure breed that can be very good ...but not many....thats why lads allover the country have tried every cross going until they find the right mix for the job they intend to do....
