Guest long-tail Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 in the saying................you will either keep 1 good lurcher or 2 average ones,i dont think this is true myself but then i suppose it depends how much time and work you can devote to each one,what you reckon?

Guest long-tail Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 i could maybe understand keeping two same types and age with limited quary to work them on then you may end up with a pair of average dogs at best but also believe that keeping two different types,different ages suiting different quary then you can have two good uns.....................maybe Quote Link to post

scent 509 Posted November 5, 2011 Report Share Posted November 5, 2011 (edited) the old dog i have here was a very good fast dog and great on big game when in his prime .Lads that have had lurchers 20 odd year have said that after seeing him go .He is 13 now and killled a fox last week when we were hunting foxes.Iv had a few other lurchers the last few years but im constantly comparing them to him and im not having any luck in gettin one .Im thinking lately am i wrong in lookin for a dog as good as the old dog or should i settle for a dog nearly as good but the way i see it why drop my standards and settle for an average dog Edited November 5, 2011 by scent 1 Quote Link to post
