Views on hound x lurcher?

[tylerasker 6]

My big lad is in my photo gallery on my profile, he's now 9 months and can't wait to get him out this season! His sire was a big welshhoumd bull greyhound and the mother was suliki deerhound, he's now 25/26 tts and immensley strong. He was bred for daywork on the hill (Charlie), but hoping he'll work the lamp well as he's now started spotting. What's everyones opinions on this breeding?

Thats right Ray , he was welsh hound bull gry x bull gry , never had a dog who killed so cliniclly . Used to shake them once , sometimes they were dead on impact , then he would drop them and walk away ! . He was 27tts , head like a bucket , immense jaw , never hunted up on lamp , but in day i saw him run stuff into a wood , out again and kill it . He once chased a rabbitt out a field and came back with a fox - over a 5 bar gate !!!! Sold him due to personal reasons at time , lad who brought him said he would hold a red stag down till help arrived ,hope yours is half as good as him as youll be well pleased !!!

Had a fell hound cross bull greyhound lovely looking bitch but never again far to thick and used her nose more than her eyes take her lamping and she would see the prey in the light get to where she saw it then start scenting pulling my hair out with her so not a cross for me but good luck

Cheers mate I'll take that into account!

And thanks dan. Lol

 

 

I like a man that can take a joke. Take care partner.

In all honesty, I grew up with some greyhoundy coonhound type crossed up dogs and I'm tellin you I seen some that would flat run some shit down and stretch it right now.

 

I know where there is a "staghound" at right now that is allegedly 1/8th coonhound and he is supposed to be a rough sumbitch.

A friend of mine had one... he got rid as it was pure and simply a very fast foxhound in its working style, awesome nose... would have suited me, but not him, as he does far more lamping than hunting.

Saying that, there can be differences in working style even within the same litter with crosses like this, so id play it by ear, and work with your dogs best qualities.

 

all the best

All ground was fine for him , as long as something needed killing on it !! Not saying it will happen but , have heard that the sire and a couple of the litter had to be pts as older dogs as they became dog killers , the urge to kill in hound crosses is very strong and you need to be very switched on with them .

I like to think of my humor as an Eddie Murphy 80s stand up humor! Haha. Take it your "coonhound" is the Yankee welsh hound kinda thing is it?

 

I've read a few of your threads and I've gotta be honest I'm so f*****g jealous man

 

Peace

Sorta but these coonhounds are bred to trail and tree. Not much difference really though in the grand scheme of things.

 

Raw or Delirious?

Its actually amazing how much this can be true.

[tylerasker 6]

DnN I'm like you, the hunt is the best part !

 

Zigzag dan I hope mine steers clearly away from that behaviour as I have a small child , I expect those are fairly rare circumstances?

 

Dan delerious of course !

 

Thanks for all the replys guys!
