lurcher/tumblers

[witton 6]

Tumblers arn't a strain of dog, I was told its just an old name used to describe a lurcher cross lurcher, normally broken coated that can take tumbles and that with less chance of getting injured. Like say a collie/grey cross deerhound/grey with maybe a touck of bedlington, Something strongly built with good feet and coat. I dont really know if this is true, its just what i was told a long time ago when i was looking into getting my first lurcher.

like i said tumbler lurcher and no jacob im neither experianced or wise enough to define one from the other but i could tell you a difference or two like be surprised if you come across a jeff burrell tumbler/lurcher with bad feet and alot more of his dogs are making the grade than not. as for the husky thing mate is all i can say is pm me an we can have a look out with the exact strain that is in jeffs tumbler/lurchers i think you will be surprised pm me if you want to see one work

A picture is worth a thousand words! A friend of mine had one of these "tumblers" it was aggresive ,even to bitches,useless on all quarry and would course a fox turning and turning it bit never going in,I said it loked like a Husky cross,and have since been told that Burrells mate breeds huskies,not a type for me.

can i ask the advantage of crossing a husky to a lurcher/sighthound?,huskys can be uncontrolable of the lead at the best of times and unbidable,and yes my friend does race them in a gig and does lurcher work to;
