whip x grey 276 Posted August 18, 2012 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 sorry guys ,,,cap locks should have been off nevermind its all banter,,,not like me to do that ,,,,but moo i still dont know how too take you yet lol Quote Link to post
birddog 1,354 Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 moo, trying to keep it real, most rabbits are caught in what 30,40 yds......................do you need saluki stamina, given any kind of law what is it that gets a dog up to its quarry ?.............straight line speed mate. but it also has to be remembered that a lot of these guys are moochers, ferreters (thats the breeders game) and occasional bunny lampers. Knowing both these dogs as i do, the bitch has probably the smartest tightest feet i've seen in years on a lurcher, paddy the sire and his brother are knocking on 5 years old and have never had a foot injury either racing or rabbiting their breeder 'so what' on here has 2 of their siblings and again he's into racing and mooching his both have excellent feet. Their breeding is phenominal, 'so what' paid a lot of money for their dam, a classy bred greyhound and their father was a top class champion racing whippet.................so what do they bring to the mix? electric early pace, straight line speed, a proven history of good feet and from some of the best racing (whippet and greyhound) bloodlines avaliable. 1 Quote Link to post
doge77 51 Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 I have been out with bob for a mooch with this bitch more times than anyone else this year and I can tell you this bitch can turn, I have seen her run very rough ground and dense woods while chasing rabbits she has overtaken lurchers while slaloming through trees over broken branches doing a 180 degree turn bypassing the lurchers again even befor they know what's going on. I have yet to see a dog that can match or beat this little bitch on balance, turn, form and stamina. I can only see that as an asset if adding it to a working lurcher, I think something with a bit of raw prey drive, speed and stamina to line this bitch like a grey, saluki with a little touch of bull. What ever it is it will have to be a bit special and just for you haymin if this lining happens I might just end up with 3 dogs lol, so that will be your nose right out of joint lol.

birddog 1,354 Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 you've been abroad too much mate, goot feet? lol have you been working with germans? Quote Link to post
birddog 1,354 Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 the 'crush' bitch that bob spoke about.........offers similar good breeding (he owns the sire) her straight line speed is maybe not up to paddy or bens (almost bob's) but it has to be remembered that these 2 brothers are among the top scratch racers in the country perhaps even of a generation. but 'crush' offers a little more maybe because she was raised as a hunter 1st and a racer 2nd, apart from the speed bit she has a high prey drive and is incredibly agile turning as they say on a tanner, she retrieves like a lurcher and isn't afraid of thorns and such........phil lloyd, dave sleight and many others have used non ped, grew, hardblood call it what you will blood into their juckels and when you look into it a little its easy to understand why. as a working lurcher man who raced these types many moons ago the key to success with this type of cross / outcross is to do your homework and pick the right line, some champions have the breeding, the speed, the temperament but not the feet for example.

KittleRox 2,147 Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 just to add a bit grew blood can help to get the dog on terms with quarry very quickly " not just bunnys" pre ban lol where as a dog that isn,t quite as fast in the early stages will fail Quote Link to post
jarv5116 57 Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 Doesnt matter with lurchers anyways. Sonner or later your going need go back to putting a pure running dog into your line at some point or the dogs wont be able run a message. Quote Link to post
