whats the best lurcher for me


Recommended Posts


take your time mate to choose , its a big decision , i'd be asking myself what quarry the dogs gonna be used for, over what terrain , and then start looking to see if you can get someone to take you out ( a big ask) depending on quarry !! to see what certain breeds are about , persionally ive always had dogs from pups , its a long waiting game but the rewards are well worth it , not only by the bond between dog and owner , but even the mistakes made are priceless lessons learned for future reference all the best on your quest ..... tag :thumbs:

ive been told by a few people that a whippet x greyhound will be an ideal for lamping rabbits as thats what im going to use it for.

collie whippet or collie greyhound make good lamping dogs for rabbits :thumbs:

i thought of a collie whippet rather than a collie greyhound as the fields are quite small and i thought the colle greyhound will be abit big

You won't go far wrong with sal/whip/grey in my opinion.

 

As for size, you could have anything from a big 26" Dog To a small 22" bitch.

 

My mate has got a lovely little bitch, 3/4 Grey 1/4 Saluki put over full whippet. 23" tts, Acceleration is outstanding and top speed certainly ain't slow. Stamina to burn.

 

Good luck in whatever you choose.
