right lads n lassses am thinking of getting me first lurcher and was looking for a bit of guidance on what cross to get.the majority of my land is farm land ie arobal with a few pastural padocks the largest feilds are 200 plus acres and the smallest being about 3 acres flat and open land, ground light soil sand not to heavy. if this helps . am mainly looking for a rabbiting dog with a bit of wind in its sails for the longer runs but some land has thick hedgerows running through them so a dog with not to thin a coat . any tips or ideas on what x would suit this lye of land much appreciated. yis willum.

 

 

what ever you decide dont rush into it and buy the first thing that comes along ,if leaving a deposit dont forget a reciept ,and watch out for dodgy cnuts in northhampton!

collie GH or collie Whippet ? mustard if you put the time in.

im a bit of a traditionalist when i comes to crosses id say you wouldnt go far wrong with deerhound x grey,perfect for the bigger ground. a 1/4collie x grey.however my choice would be a bedlington/whippet put back to a good greyhound.but there are many good dogs out there...and a good keen working whippet will put a smile on your face!
