Both pures are a joy to be around, so it’s fair to say the crosses are nice easy dogs to live with

True words W. Katchum...

 This is Blue,...a poor troubled soul, but an amazingly fleet-footed runner, and one of the few lurchers Ive seen that could spin over the awesome hares that inhabit Salisbury Plain. 

 She is the Grand Dam of my current stock...

Bowline?  

Lol

Sorry mate, I'll have a word with myself!

A line is only worth its name if it used extensively,...poor performers need to be culled ruthlessly and young stock should only be offered to men that can enter them sensibly and test them, to the full over a few seasons,...otherwise, the phrase means nothing...

I've bred a few pups and I could have bred and sold/gifted dozens,.but as a commercial breeder of lurchers once told me, " Phil, you will never make a dog breeder because you ask too many questions, of a prospective customer"...I rated his remarks as a great compliment....

They norfolk type lurchers phil?

I'll ask again, do these bowline dogs go back to the 70's?
