Dranny GLC 112 Posted May 16, 2013 Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 Is a lurcher good because of its blood line or is it because of the time that as been put into trainning it as a pup. Can a pup from crap parents be made into a all round hunting machine. ? Quote Link to post

Dranny GLC 112 Posted May 16, 2013 Author Report Share Posted May 16, 2013 I had a handcock rough coated bitch she was really good and showed a lot of promise but she was sadly killed at 16 months old. But I don't no if it was just luck or the trainning she was given. Im scared if I get another and put in all the time and effort in and it turns out shit. Quote Link to post
