First X Deerhound Greyhound

[salukixlad 35]

just wondering how people rate them an who breeds um ??

Ive got a 3/4 grey 1/4 deerhound, Dam was a Irish Greyhound and Sire a first cross DeerxGrey. Brilliant dogs, very intelligent, fast and big enough for most UK game.

 

Im planning on breeding her to a pure deerhound or a half cross within the next couple of years and trying to get a good deer/grey line going with no other breeds in. In my opinion theyre the best lurchers (10000x better than my daft saluki greyhound whippet) and I'd like to see them make a re-appearance on the running dog seen as this old style bred lurcher seems to be coming less and less common.

Cookland's pure working deerhound 'Wallace' is not far from you mate.
