Chid 6,537 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. do you have experiance in this have you or someone you know had to do this ? If your breeding lurchers then at some point ur going have to. why? Unless ur breeding sight hound type ( saluki x greyhound type) running dogs. ur going need go back to pure running dog at some point why? give me one valid reason .... because sooner or later if it's a bull x line or a collie x line as opposed to a sighthound to sighthound line by concentrating on the good qualities of the collie or bull ie the brains or determination your going to concentrate the qualities and therefore the genes of the non running dog, this obviously leads to a dilution to a greater or lesser degree of the running dog be it greyhound, whippet, saluki or whatever and this will lead to a loss of the traits required from the running dog side predominately speed so by outcrossing back to a running dog you keep the qualities of the non running dog ie brains or determination with the benefit of a new infusion of speed. one of jarvis' bitches i believe is sired by a line bred bull x and her dam is a greyhound and (i know him and the bitch) she seems to have all the fire, grit and determination of the bull line but she is a really quick wee thing, she's also very steady and calm all traits associated with quality greyhound blood. but all that can be done by selective breeding of lurchers can it not , all these people who think you need to breed back to pure running dog , how many of you think you need to breed back to pure none running dog (eg collie) Aye I owned a 5/8 collie greyhound years ago that was breed from reverse 3/4 collie greyhound. They only thing you could av put the dog to was pure greyhound or they would av lacked pace. Pre ban on bambi or hare running daytime half x to half x for generations will lack pace. So you got to end up putting full running dog back into it or high percentage of running dog x. In to produce the high percentage of lurcher ie 3/4 your going have go back to pure running dog. your talking fractions not lurchers , if you breed lurcher x lurcher selectivley you will be able to breed dogs suitable for jobs without going back to pure , its been done for years just to add imo using a greyhound in an established lurcher line is a shortcut in your breeding program Quote Link to post

If you breeding dogs half x with half crosses your going end up saturated in collie, bull, beddy or what ever your crossing it with. And its going lack pace Quote Link to post

If you breeding dogs half x with half crosses your going end up saturated in collie, bull, beddy or what ever your crossing it with. And its going lack pace there you go talking fractions again if you are getting to much collie/bull ect why not use a good daytime lurcher to increase speed not a greyhound no need to go pure see 1 Quote Link to post

jarv5116 57 Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 You asked me why and here my reason I said earlier Pre ban on bambi or hare running daytime half x to half x for generations will lack pace. So you got to end up putting full running dog back into it or high percentage of running dog x. In to produce the high percentage of lurcher ie 3/4 your going have go back to pure running dog. The highlighted was from post I wrote to start with why. Were going round and round the round about and I cant be arsed. Quote Link to post

If your breeding lurchers to lurchers for generations your going need go back to a pure running dog at some point or a very high percentage of running dog. How you going produce the very high percentage or racey running dog for a out cross in your line Quote Link to post
bunnys 1,228 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 just as an incidental to this both my bitches are similar way bred one by a deerhound type lurcher to lurcher line for generations and out of a greyhound, the other by a collie x that can be traced back decades out of a greyhound, both of mine work, both are quick and both retain a lot of the characteristics of the non running dog breed i agree this his the gleesh of line bred animals over many generations , one can go back to pures and lose nothing of the traits in the line of the xs bred . in anutshell the line bred animal will be dominant in most cases . atb bunnys.

birddog 1,354 Posted August 19, 2012 Report Share Posted August 19, 2012 without wishing to offend anyone i kinda liken this argument to the difference between kc reg and non ped whippets. the way i see it they both originally came from if not the same stock at least very similar, breeding down greyhounds using different blood, in effect small 'lurchers'. some guys whose dogs were quick for sure mated similar to similar, cousin to cousin etc and slowly but surely the kc whippet as we know it was born, these dedicated breeders true to their own beliefs refined what they had and started getting picky looking for the fine coat, the roach back, the rose shaped ears etc ........bingo kc whippet still fast, still handy but now uniform similar size, shape, conformation etc.......another group of guys with the same quick wee 'lurchers' began looking for something else, they too bred close for a while but realised something was missing so they put in a wee bit of fire, they outcrossed back to greyhound, they continued to breed fastest to fastest and bingo...the non ped had arrived, not as pretty, not as uniform, but faster, stronger tougher. like i say i'm not wishing to offend anyone from any camp i'm a big fan of both ......it's just the way i see it Quote Link to post
