morton 5,368 Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 ones we had in the eighties never took fox we used them for hare rabbit pheasants etc , not bad dogs , but no big shakes compared to the purpose bred hare dogs nowadays If they never took fox,that would be possibly down to their entering or poor breeding,compared to a purpose bred hare dog the vast majority of rough coated lurchers will come second.The Deerhound-Grey/Collie-Grey was bred as an allrounder,to fulfill a multitude of tasks,something the right ones excelled at,as a fox and venison dog,in the past,they more than held their own and on the heavier,rougher terrain had few equals.As in all other lurchers its usually poor training and entering that results in dogs not attaining their true potential. 2 Quote Link to post

poacher3161 1,766 Posted December 21, 2011 Report Share Posted December 21, 2011 This cross can be an awsome all rounder on all edible quarry and those i saw in the 80s were very consistant hare catchers on all the ground i saw them run on. 1 Quote Link to post

Romany 1,065 Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 (edited) I only ever worked bitches of this breeding I usually enter them between 30-40 weeks, and begin to graft them propper at around 42-44 weeks on rabbits, Ive had them killing at 6 month though rabbits, This bitch is the best all rounder of this breeding Ive seen in the last 30years The black one below is her grand daughter (not as good an all rounder, but killed more rabbits) and the black and tan is her great grand daughter The blue is another great grand daughter Edited December 22, 2011 by Romany Quote Link to post

BEARINATOR 2,867 Posted December 22, 2011 Report Share Posted December 22, 2011 I've had a few of this cross and I love them, rate them highly as all rounders. I'll sort some pictures out for you boots mate after I've had a few hours sleep, night shifted up again with the keepers but beats a days beating. Cracking little video Fast dogs Quote Link to post
