friend, if you are thinking of getting into the dog game and have little of no experience of lurchers, start off with another cross, a bit easier on the blood pressure. You may strike lucky and get a bull x thats got the make up of a collie cross mentality, but chances are it will be what most are, intelligent, headstrong and high prey drive. It will suss out soon enough that you are a novice and will end up running rings around you.

 

I'm not trying to say they are non starters for newbie lurcher owners, but be carefull before you make your fInal choice, as it may, quite literally, come back to bite you in the arse.

Why don't you get something lurcher to lurcher bred with bull on one side.

 

Collie/grey x Bull/Whip/Grey for example.

 

Go for parents of similar size you want. 23"-25" is good size for decent all rounders I think.
