What size is the dog c green. I’ve been looking down different avenues for something different to run as what I like don’t get bred much anymore. I’ve did have me name practically down for a coursing bred pup but unfortunately due to some very unlucky circumstances the breeding will not be able to happen. 

 

Ive got a young bitch on loan here at the moement.

 

Same father as that bitch u have on loan bitch was a fair bit better bred though.

I’m not really a saluki fan or do I have any thing at all against them there just not my bag but what I’ve seen an heard is a lot of people say is with Salukis there all different with how the breeding of them goes they all have different running styles an builds tbh I couldn’t see why a saluki or a saluki x shouldn’t do deer if it’s got the heart for it A mate of mine used to have a bitch that was 21tts not really a heavy built bitch at all fine an racey she was a proper bitza bred collie deerhound greyhound whippet that little dog was forever nocking them over with ease not really the type of dog that most would use for them or call a deer dog but the little dog had heart an a knack for dropping them in my eyes that was a deer dog it become the dogs profession

Yep but not intentionally with a fast old 26tts collie x same bitch I’d ferret in the same woodland all my dogs were used to woodland running at one time

My old bull x never caught one in the woods but put them away in the field.

You need good keen dogs in your kennel I’ve seen coursing dogs 27 TTS strong but windy then I’ve seen 24bitch narrow anorexic looking that would go at out until it was brown bread 
The ones that a keen and game is the ones you want that doesn’t come with size atb

 

Sorry mate but i don’t agree with that , in essence yes drive doesn’t come in packages but for those bigger deers you need that weight to lean in

On the subject of mature fallow bucks though, I've never known of a fine 21 inch type animal able to take them down. Even sika stags are trouble for small finely built dogs.

All small dog will do is hang on back leg or give it a good ripping To back leg on the turn Seen small dogs hold on half a field small  dogs capable of Been known to pull  horses Never mind a deer

The subject was deer in general it didn’t specify on the title of the thread that it was just fallow or sika deer or out an out deer dogs. I was on about roe an muntjac As deer in general that’s still a achievement for such a small bitch of 21tts how many 21tts dogs do you know that are more than rabbit dogs. There’s no denying a dog/bitches capability’s if there dropping fallow or sika saying they need to be Say a set size weight hight would be foolish ability comes in all shapes an sizes were all here just giving a opinion on what we see as suitable because none of us can say as a set in stone rule it needs to be this that or the other.

Think people need to remember if a man does his running from a motor his idea of a deer dog will be very different to someone that does it on foot
