stripes 401 Posted January 4, 2012 Report Share Posted January 4, 2012 Sorry to hear that craig,, kept lurchers for years and found the very fine crosses more prone to injury than a straight half cross. Thats one of the pitfalls of very fast running dogs especially at night,, just rest her. Quote Link to post
