kanigra 110 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 sal/grey cross deer/grey. sal/grey cross bull/grey. sal/grey cross wheaton/grey. Think any of these crosses if bred from proven stuff should do the job on a regular bases. Quote Link to post
moonlighter 1,163 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 Ok gem. She was much smaller than I pictured. Some, probally more likely the males, can be great big things. Quote Link to post
Carraghs Gem 1,675 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 I put it down to her not having enough bull in her... If I was to get another it would be half cross Quote Link to post

Tiny 7 1,694 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 much easier pre ban to get a dog that would take deer than it was one to take fox imo. Seen a few good Deer dogs that would lift there head on a fox..... I agree with you there Well would of all loved dogs that would do the lot but in theroy it just anit that simple...... Likes been said what one would class as a top dog others wont and be mearly avarage at best. Me i would of taken a good deer dog over ANY good teeth dog they just never done it for me.... 4 Quote Link to post
troter58 1,711 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 if the dog is brought on proper and the gear is put in front of it they should do both fox and deer half the time the dog is let down by the owner who then blames the dog and not his self atb 2 Quote Link to post
moonlighter 1,163 Posted November 23, 2012 Report Share Posted November 23, 2012 I don't think that's the case with foxes. Some dogs won't do them single handed no matter how you enter them. And in my experience, not including bull Xs, not a lot of lurchers are single handed. 2 Quote Link to post
