Smooth Deerhound Blooded Lurchers

[3 Turns 326]

I never expected her to be so small, but am very pleased with how she is turning out. She's still very young, last season was her first, and I didn't get out with her as much as I'd have liked to - I think shes going to be useful, and am looking forward to the start of the coming season

 

 

a couple of photos of her taken by a friend of mine, whilst out ferreting

 

 

 

Lovely bitch Keeps, so many of my early stuff had ears like hers, what a pair of lugs..

 

 

CRACKING LOOKING BITCH/VERY WELL MADE

Thanks for all the input folks.

 

Really liking the deerhound stuff at the moment. I'm thinking deer/grey x whippet somewhere down the line.

 

Thanks

This is a bitch I bred in the `s, and like I say, some of my stuff did have lugs like her....only when she was alert, she is 10 years old on this picture..

Thanks Gareth..this was the best all round bitch Ive ever owned

Yes I can definitely see the resemblance, especially her ears and very similar breeding too... is that Bess? She looks well in the photo for her age

Alot of people who mention "the best all rounder" seem to always mention deerhound somewhere throughout the conversation.

 

Food for thought I think.

 

Thanks for sharing.

Mozrick, seven months old and 27".

This will be the first season in 15 years that I'm not running a bull X. Bringing this pup on so far has been a real pleasure and has shown me that mixing things up a bit with a totally different type of lurcher was just what I needed to give the game a whole new breath of keenness.

Lovely fog mate. Hows he bred?

Lovely fog mate. Hows he bred?

Sire - first cross Deerhound Greyhound

Dam - Collie Greyhound X Deerhound Greyhound with apparently a 5/8 bully in its grandparantage but who can tell. I saw the sire and dam when I picked him up as a pup and they were nice enough muts, the chap who bred them worked both parents hard and that was good enough for me.
