johnny boy68 11,726 Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 Don throws a nice type, they don't lack a bit of pace either and they're durable. I've just messaged Fuji for a chat. What bitches has Don been over mate and how have they turned out? He's been to 2 bitches as far as I'm aware though Andy will fill you in, the 2 are both lurcher x lurcher. The young bitch I've got here is coming along nicely, runs well on any ground, runs real well on rough ground though. She loves to hunt and is turning into a cracking mooching partner.

A slow dog would not stand a chance. On the straights they fly! I really like a fast dog. Quote Link to post

I like seeing my bitch overtake them on the fairway and scoop them up from the side. Where is your way mate? And what's the speed machine? Quote Link to post

Ideation 8,216 Posted June 23, 2013 Report Share Posted June 23, 2013 I'd stick with what will suit what YOU are going to do. There are some cracking dogs on here, who do a hell of a lot in the field. . . . . but that doesn't mean they would be right for your bitch. 4 Quote Link to post

Fife in scotland , the whippet x bull grey i've got is a speed machine compaired to my usual choice of lurcher but with having permision for golf course and getting back into ferreting thought he would be worth a try Quote Link to post
