no ban 1 Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 Hello im new on this site, but it would be nice to know if anybody is working this cross of lurcher. i have this breed of lurcher, who is now nearly 10 months old and is 21 tts. his had a couple of starters ie, young rabbits in net. his been a pleasure training, all the usual sit, stay, jumping, retrieving rabbit fur dummy daytime from cover, and also on lamp, but it has taken a lot of hard work, but well worth its weight in gold.. he loves having a mooch in the bush, but im just letting him mature a bit more.

Thanks for reply & photo Dunkanon,your boy is handsome, is he fast? i would say that my boy is trained, showing ability, allthough can be stubborn sometimes, and has been out watching educated dog doing the biz, but in my heart of hearts i think honestly, he,ll probably catch a rabbit now, not being big headed, but he like us , must learn to walk, before he can run.. i cant wait till his first rabbit, and only time will realy tell. God Willing, Cheers mate, NO BAN... Quote Link to post
Dunkanon 380 Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 yes hes quite fast and quick off the mark, will tell you for sure when he catches something....lol, he got pretty good nose and marks well, this seasons will be his 1st so just see how we get on with him, but really looking forward to seeing his 1st catch. atb Quote Link to post
Stevie D 9 Posted August 22, 2010 Report Share Posted August 22, 2010 I've had two of this cross. It was over 20 years ago and I did quite a bit of ferreting then. They were perfect for that job and I had some fantastic sport with them. I've just bought a bitch from a lad on this site, same cross again, she's just 12 weeks old, I'll stick a pic up when I get home in a few days. It's not that common a cross, good luck with them lads.
