Lurcher Breeding ? What is needed.

[chartpolski 24,601]

Well, if I've got people like Romany and Border Lad looking at my threads, then I'm a happy man !!!!!!

Decent Greyhound base,a mixture of working hill Collie and Deerhound,lurcher to lurcher breeding to balance out the breed.

[trigger2 3,146]

A well bred saluki bitch as the base then the sire a fast type of collie/grey beddy/grey type.

what percent collie/grey beddy/grey would you prefer to use for the sire? half crosses 3/4 bred?

That' simple - a dog, a bitch and a copy of D.B. Plummer's 'Practical Lurcher Breeding' - what could possibly go wrong!!!!

 

 

Worked well for someone

wouldnt mind a bull xgrey to a deerhound geyhound think would be good mix or saluki bull deerhound xgreyhound

For me personally i would like a collie x, either 3/4 x 3/4, or 3/4 x 5/8 3/8, and preferably a breeding of one dog that has been a VERY prolific rabbit dog, lamping, bushing, ferreting and the other a very handy dog on stuff that bites. The idea being to create a pup capable of both, and a generally more rugged dog than a straight 3/4 (i.e half x pure). At least that's my theory. Looking at what i do and the land i hunt, and what quarry is there, i think that would cover all angles, and last well.

me personally i like a deer hound bull x grey or near on that, have excellent drive power and determination, and feet seem to hold up on most ground, and they seem to be able to deal with all quarry

just a question why would you want deerhound in the mix then whippet ?

i already have a whippet x and they just lack that wind bud

[KittleRox 2,147]

Quite a difficult one this I wouldn,t mind a pup bred this way ,

 

3/4 grey 1/4 collie to a

3/4 grey 1/4 bull,

 

but if the pup turned out leaning towards the bull I may be dissapointed ?

If it was just collie a 3quarter grey/collie after having once owned one out of such breeding.I would prefer a lurcher with both collie/grey and beddy/grey though to go back to a pure saluki having had dogs in the past but out of saluki/greys the same way bred and was more than happy with them.

sire deer x saluki grey dam collie grey x bull grey, then hopefully the best of both worlds

Thing is, all of this mixing and matching, is where you hope it all comes together right. And at 8 weeks it's a bit hard to tell.

another good x above, if not to big would be spot on for most stuff

i dont care whats in the mix aslong as it does the job for me ...

having said that id like to try a half x beddy/grey or a saluki/bull/grey next
