Unfortunately a lot of us want more from our dogs than 1 or 2 bunnies a night or the odd easy hare. 1 Quote Link to post
fazza123 516 Posted July 15, 2013 Report Share Posted July 15, 2013 Saw a saluki/bull/grey on the lamp last season. It was a fantastic dog. Straight back when the lamp was off. Worked off the slip. Very well mannered. The guy doesn't know what he's talking about. Was it any goog in a rearing pen though Gaz? Lol had a good giggle at that one !! Quote Link to post

skycat 6,173 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Such prejudice usually starts when someone sees one or two badly trained or below par examples of a breed or type. They then base their opinion on that and look no further: hardly an broadly informed base on which to build their prejudice. However, there's no smoke without fire, and I think that certain types of dog attract people for the wrong reasons. Education is everything, in both humans and dogs. 2 Quote Link to post
Bosun11 537 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 I wouldn't fret or worry about what is only a sales pitch... Mr Burrell sell's pups, he doesn't really work dogs. It ain't like he works the arse off 'em and when he breeds, only for himself, he's selling off the surplus... No, he's got a website dedicated to educate you in what real lurchers, his lurchers, really are...(?) It's all about the sale and any other type is always gonna be inferior...! Thing is, each and every time I read or hear about his dogs I get to thinking that I don't know anyone who has one, or worked one enough and put it in print from an unbiased perspective? I'd love to see for myself if they have any of the characteristics they are supposed to have? I don't doubt for a minute they are decent enough lurchers, so one day I'd like to give one a go, get a pup on and see what its all about, I doubt i'll find some revelation, which wouldn't be a problem, as thats what i'd be expecting anyway, just a decent knock about dog but then I doubt I'd be sold one anyway..!!

Phil Lloyd 10,738 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) I have seen some realy nice bull blooded lurchers, and the best of these also had Saluki blood in them.. They looked to be trainable enough to me... Edited July 16, 2013 by Phil Lloyd 2 Quote Link to post
sikastag_1 689 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 (edited) I don't own a bull cross but what an idiotic statement to make Edited August 28, 2019 by grant_c Quote Link to post

forest of dean redneck 11,550 Posted July 16, 2013 Report Share Posted July 16, 2013 Funny thing is ,years ago the Lurcher was a pot filler ,so I would expect it to bring me a pheasant back,and not the fox,lol He's so far up his own arse he's contradicting the history of the dogs he's a self proclaimed expert on.!
