maitland93 13 Posted June 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Just av never had a dog with any saluki in. Av been told they have selective hearing and do. What they want not whats been told of them. Also my pup is 14 weeks old and very head strong and shakes every think how will a get him to stop doing it or will he grow out of it Quote Link to post
Paid 935 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Yours sounds like a good mix for an all rounder. Mine contains all the breds yours does, except the saluki, which would help him in the one aspect he is unable to pull off, a S/D/T/Hare Quote Link to post
gamerooster 1,179 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 it also depends on the type of ground you are running on, imo there is no point getting a saluki based dog if you are running mostly small fields with lots of cover, its all a matter of horses for courses Quote Link to post
maitland93 13 Posted June 21, 2011 Author Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 A run big open feilds mostly woth no live stock so it will go my favour with the saluki in Quote Link to post

inan 841 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 (edited) Saluki based lurchers, do they make good lamping dogs all quary (pre ban). Baiscaly alrounders. Whats your views on these Atb maitland No , they are far too slow ,they need prairies to run on,are slow to turn ,and only catch their prey after running them to exhaustion in marathons,not only that ,but they cannot jump, or handle cover.Totally unsuitable as a base for any sort of general purpose hunter.They are also boring to watch, and unbiddable. Does that about cover it? Edited June 21, 2011 by inan Quote Link to post

Does that about cover it? Depends on how much saluki in the dog and l take it you have never had one because only people who have not had one or seen one work would say what you did.

Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted June 21, 2011 Report Share Posted June 21, 2011 Before any saluki fans get deeply upset and ready to kill inan and skycat - I sense sarcasm! Lol. Someone said earlier, you either love them or hate them like marmite. I love them :-) Quote Link to post
