It is just a myth that dogs are capable of catching deer ...rabbits and hares yes but no dog could catch deer

 

That is almost the divvy quote of the year :toast:

Me myself i dont think theres a certain lurcher for taking deer pre ban of course from what ive learnt if you give the dog good schooling i think its in most running dogs to tackle a roe or munty or fallow, ok a full grown fallow buck is a bit of a challenge to some dogs but apart from that i think its either in the dog or it isnt :thumbs:

I heard of a bitch from way back that had probably around 700 roe in her carreer and not one had a mark on the carcass thats what I would class as a venison lurcher but then again I didnt see it with my own eyes so probably just a myth

pre ban type question so lets not worry about that 1

 

 

ok if you where to breed a litter of consistant venison lurchers , i mean that being 90% of what there catching what would use .

 

id like your thoughts on hights and builds of animals that have or would excell at this . including a pair of bitches that could work togeather.

but there not for rabbits etc

 

Why a pair, why not single?

 

Coz that's impossible everyone knows only Plummers can catch venison single handed :whistling: :whistling:

 

muntjacs? lol
