paulus 26 Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 would depend on size and type but as long as they can clear a 5 bar gate couldnt see the need for wanting or needing one to jump any higher 1 Quote Link to post

maitland93 13 Posted September 24, 2011 Report Share Posted September 24, 2011 a lurcher can jump very hight my old bitch could jump straight over me and am just shy of 6 foot and she only stood 23tts aprox and my 6 month old pup clears a 5 bar Quote Link to post
Guest FTBBTH Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 my dad had an old bitch beddy whippet out of whipet called marillion i think, he got her for free called meg at 7 month, she could jump out of her kennel 5ft and onto the garage roof which was 7 foot ish, not record breaking or amazingly high but it was good to watch, shed never over jump anything though just slightly skim it.

martync1967 64 Posted September 25, 2011 Report Share Posted September 25, 2011 (edited) my lads bebby whippet clears five bar gates when required the dog is 22tts,think five bar gates are about four/five foot high at a guess but i may be wrong,would any lurcher not be able to jump twice maybe three times its own hieght at the peak of fitness???????????
