stewie 3,387 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 first i best start by saying im not really into shows but why does the above take place at most of them you see on here??? surly it creates a divided between "them and us" type people on both sides!!! you get fine looking speciems in all Xs so why not throw them altogether in over 23in or under 23in just seems pointless and stupid to me, they are just lurchers as much as any other cross and dont deserve any special treatment 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
morton 5,368 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 I think its to give the owners a chance of getting a ribbon,because if they had to compete on a level playing field,with the other types,except the whippety,s,they would leave the ring empty handed. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

123456 146 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 is lurcher isnt a set shape but has certain conformatities that should be looked for when judging and unfortunately alot of bullxs especially halfxs and even some 1/4s just dont match upto that so they have there own class because you look for different characteristics. judging a bullx next to a whippet is like putting a shitzu in with great danes Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Rake aboot 4,935 Posted March 16, 2012 Report Share Posted March 16, 2012 It`s to encourage more folk into the ring,, same as whippet , rough, smooth,, over 24,,under 24,, etc etc,, Lets face it,,plenty folk don`t like other folks dogs, but if we were all the same, we`d be f****d 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
