Good Man 196 Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 any pure saluki in Ireland taking long ears on a regular basis with consistency, in winter? I have not, come across any? Fields here, especially in the west of the country, are just too small i think and the irish hare, is not easy catch in our country! I may be wrong, but liked to be prooven wrong too?

mossyh07 64 Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 Next pup i buy will contain some saluki as i want to try one for a change, i think there are certain places they could be handy. But i think for most of the land i hunt here I will never be without something pacey, I just couldn't see some of those saluki types getting a look in on regular land with ditches, dykes, gates and fences to overcome. Then again, I've never had one so maybe I could be very wrong ans surprised. Quote Link to post

iceman001979 1,316 Posted January 7, 2012 Report Share Posted January 7, 2012 Lads the question was can a pure take hares in Ireland not 3/4 or half crosses dogs but pure there is a difference.There is no reason why a pure can not take hares in Ireland if brought up in Ireland as pup and run with a lurcher type dog for a loads times that is smashing ditches gates and that so it can learn the land is running. So l ask this why cant a pure not be able to run Ireland????? Quote Link to post
