paulus 26 Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 all round is a big ask, i think you need to ask yourself whot you want the dog to do, whot quarry is in your area, whot is the terrain your going to hunt, ect. ect. when youve sorted all these questions in your own mind you will have a clearer idea of whot type of dog your looking for. will save another dog ending up in the for sale or free on here due it not being whot you were looking for, sorry to sound harsh. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Tiny 7 1,694 Posted June 12, 2011 Report Share Posted June 12, 2011 A lurcher to lurcher bred pup out of stuff that doing alround work would be your best bet IMO... And then put as much time in to him as you can and then more, 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
