rocky1 942 Posted December 10, 2011 Report Share Posted December 10, 2011 it just dies down 2 what your prefernece is ,i like rough coated lurchers but also like a bit bit bull in the mix,seen lots of crooses work and i can honestly say that a lurcher based dog is the right line 2 go down Quote Link to post

Terra Firma 136 Posted December 11, 2011 Report Share Posted December 11, 2011 Some of the best catch dogs I've owned/seen run have been sal/bull/grey all with 1/4 saluki or less in the mix just for a little more power/drive, but the breeding behind them has been from well tested lines right through and this is the most important thing, you can't just throw a cross together and expect to get top class dogs as I'm sure you know, so do you research and wait for the right litter to come along would be my advice.
