baldockbanks courser 598 Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Because i know they do,if its phoned in as injured and a rfd in not availble. They'd have to remove it after, you can't pick a bag of cement up these days for health and safety! 1 Quote Link to post

That's what I'm saying they wouldn't leave it on a road on private land I don't know, and this vet was a man not a tranny! Lol Quote Link to post

lapin2008 1,587 Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 A question to the lads who have had a deerhound greyhound and a deerhound collie greyhound what do you think shapes up to be the better, I've had the collie cross and a mate had a dh/g 2nd gen which was shite to be honest ( no balls) might of been a one off but I do think adding something to the dh/g makes a better animal. Has any one got a deerhound x greyhound (not talking dogs of old, what's about now) that they take out and it retrieves fox week in week out? A 20+ dog a season, as well as other testing game week in week out? I know no one can or probably will comment in the current climate, but from my experience they a crafty x that for the size are frankly a bit yellow when it comes to commitment and hard nights work compared to other lurchers breed for the same tasks. If there are any you should breed from them other wise it will be Finnished as purely a working mans dog. As I've said nothing wrong with there running style and speed, it's at the end of the run they seem to lack. I think you must have been unlucky with the ones you have seen mate. 2 Quote Link to post
baldockbanks courser 598 Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Could well have been. Only my experience, I hope/sure there are good ones out there, I like them that's why I tried them, wouldn't again for some time. Quote Link to post

robwelsh 354 Posted March 26, 2013 Report Share Posted March 26, 2013 Problem is, everyone wants to do everything yesterday, and if that's what your into, a deerhound x ain't right for you..better off getting a bullx to smash everything at 8 month, then when its two, an had a titful an full of marks, you will still be able to sell it to some bragging twat. Good luck . 1 Quote Link to post

Good luck .Iv herd all this before and it's a poor excuse for me.I know how to enter a dog, my bitch see nothing That would test her till 2 year old and then it was only retrieving stubble cubs which she didn't. It's not good eneough from a 2 year old Lurcher that, they only have a limited running life, why woul you need to hold a dog up till its 3!!! Sometimes it's easy to blame the owners to take the attention of the xs! Edited March 26, 2013 by baldockbanks courser Quote Link to post

What you describe was not my experience with mine in terms of his progression, by a year he was contributing regularly with the restocking of the freezer and by 16 months he was fully away in terms of work. As a pup he did come across as a complete brain dead fanny until about 10 months old and didnt want to chase stuff until this point after that stuff started to click. Quote Link to post

What you sort of described lol, was what I was expecting to be honest not a pup going at a year no, but when had deerhound x owners telling me not to be down hearted at 2 I thault no something's not right. Even if they do start at 3 year old that's too long and a lot of food before you get a working dog. I stand by a lot of people who keep the xs mollie coddle them and like walking them around game fairs more than round a field. Not all owners but a good few. Quote Link to post

Not all owners but a good few. 2 years is a long time... 3 not a chance I would have waited that long. I probably would have been worried about him if after 12-14 months he hadnt been showing some potential 1 Quote Link to post
