Have you run grey/saluki x grey/collie up their? I found dogs that mostly came a cropper or sufferd with their feet on the moorland we used to run on were lurchers with an high percentage of greyhound in them ie 3 quarter breds.

All those thousands of rabbits my old couring dog cought up the rugged yorkshire dales , must have been a dream

 

You must've been dreaming pal as I've just read it's not possible.

[tote 854]

A good dog will catch any were and will adapt its running style to its enviroment this i have witnessed on meny occasions.Even an ex match dog at nearly 7 years old the first time the lad who had him run him on the moors in my company and the dog killed 5 blue hares over some very rough ground without comeing to any harm.

 

 

I don't believe you mate, it can't be done.

alot of dog men use collie crosses but half crosses just don't have enough speed saluki grew collie grew would be a intresting breed to try ..

[Terrie 12]

we have a first cross saluki/grey and had him up north (bigger parks than where we are now) But he always delivered the goods! Now we have moved he still delivers but this season will be his first full season down this way so will be interesting but to be honest i think he will do fine. Had a few dogs over the years and i do prefer the saluki cross to the collie. Each to their own tho.

i just wanted to no peoples opinions on a good hare dog in scotland are what type of cross,with the diffrence in terrain,and alot shorter fields'i thinkk you would have needed a dog with a quick burst of speed and good striking what do use think,this is not a topic to start a argument it's just a thought

collie grew saluki whippet grew for me up and at them fast but has that extra gear and stamina when you need it plus the collie feet dont seem to get nocked as much as others i have run

Tomo, never once did i say it wasnt possible..... never once.... As my dogs do it up there regular....

 

T howley has just sold a good dog, in fact he said it was the best bitch he has ever seen, and he's seen alot hasnt he mate...

 

Do you think it would have been worth that money, had he took the buyer to watch it up there!! Why do people twist things around on here....

 

 

And who ever mentioned BLUE HARES on rugged moorland, well come on, a fit doberman could catch them!

Yea i bet it did, especially with the beddy in it. Any well bre dog with beddy or collie in it has a very good chance, and are much more robust that others...

[TOMO 26,255]

yes of course some types of lurcher work better than others on difrent terrain,

 

but what your saying rfyl, is gernralising, which is always going to be a sticky area. its like saying bull crosses cant catch rabbits.

 

for evry dog that you say you have seen do rubbish up there, there will be others proving you wrong.
