matmorgan 49 Posted April 26, 2011 Report Share Posted April 26, 2011 i am looking to rehome my lurcher bitch.look at my previous posts for pics.my reason is i dont think shes going to turn into a great rabbiting dog.she has caught rabbits and will run the beam very well but she loses interest after a few runs.ive been told that the deerhound blood does throw late starters but i personally feel she lacks the keenness to become an out and out rabbiter.she may suit someone who only does a little bit of work now and then or for showing as she is a cracker to look at.but please understand in my opinion this bitch hasnt the determination to become a decent hunter. i will only let her go to a good home and if i think your a dick you wont get her. make me an offer as quality of home comes before price. heres hoping for the right home for a lovely natured bitch.

skycat 6,173 Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Bejaysus! Shoot every dog which doesn't make the grade why don't you! :censored: The guy says she has a lovely nature, so what's wrong with finding a good pet home for her. Better still, contact Lurcherlink who do serious home checks and keep in contact with the dogs they rehome. She won't be passed around, which I agree is the last thing that should happen to any dog, and she will be spayed so can't be bred from to pass on her lack of drive if some idiot owned her and bred from her. I get seriously pissed off by these 'shoot the dog' merchants if an animal ain't made the grade and IS rehomeable. Fair enough if it hasn't had the sort of upbringing where it could learn to be a pet, but they're not all like that and could make someone very happy indeed. Edited to add: I have dogs here which I could never rehome either for temperament reasons or simply because they'd not fit into your average family life due to too high a prey drive, but I also have others who would do great as a pet: it comes down to knowing your dog, making a responsible and informed decision about it. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

skycat 6,173 Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 I know, I know. Just occasionally I get a bee in my bonnet, having had to rehome dogs which haven't made the grade but are too nice to kill, it's always a worry that they will go somewhere decent, and people do lie through their teeth to get a dog for the wrong reasons. Good luck finding her a good home. Link to post Share on other sites

matmorgan 49 Posted April 27, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Bullet holy shit you lot on here are well hard. Hard or responsable? if ypu have a dog that is a liability then fair enough but if you can find a good home for a good dog with someone who wants them and will enjoy having them then you dont need to bullet it do you rambo.although it does mean not being a lazy twat and getting of your arse to do the right thing by the animal you took responsibility for when you bought it.
