thinking about a pup


Recommended Posts

Thinking about getting a new lurcher pup next year as my old boy is getting on now he is a deerhound bull greyhound but don't want that cross as bit heavy under foot what a good cross to work with ferrets and lamping was thinking about a collie saluki or something along them lines what you people think

anything with saluki in it is bred for stamina for long runs what your after is for short burst i suggest a greyhound whippet x collie you will have everything you need in this breed. coat, speed, size,brain perfect for the job good luck

My only advice would be to get something with a bit of coat,rough coated dogs don't get anything like the same amount or sort of injuries and cuts that smooth coated dogs get,I've had my dogs hung up on wire and lifted them off many times without any damage,my mate keeps whippet/greyhound based lurchers and he has spent over 1500 pound this year on stitches and injuries,I would never own a smooth coated dog of any sort,there's plenty of choice about just make sure both parents get plenty of work and have been relatively free from injuries in their working lives so far and you will not be far away in your choice,good luck,WM
