Bosun11 537 Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 If the lurcher in the mix is racy and grafted and your looking for a 'sharp' pastoral blooded mutt, at that price they are well worth a punt....! Quote Link to post
koru 12 Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 i have had 3 of this cross very hit and miss.they can throw very aggressive,towards people and other dogs. the Mal has been bred For a 100 years to bite people, as you start to work the dog hard and bring his drive up this drive Can come back to the surface. 1 Quote Link to post

Woz on here had or still got a Bel mal bitch, strong type 24-25in its very full on animal, flick of a a switch type type animal with very strong jaw he used it for sleeve work a dog not mess with. But put back to a saluki grey or coursing type dog, I think you get a very good dog .Same as a if you used a good game bred bull to a good running dog 1/2 or 3/8 is plenty enough bull, same as good bel mal both if well bred are very full on dogs Quote Link to post
Flacko 1,742 Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 Yer right bird I know that for sure Quote Link to post
malc1 544 Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 I wouldn't go for a half x be too much dog like koru said they are bred for a purpose to bite and I know a fella whos had problems with them turning on there owners Quote Link to post
Flacko 1,742 Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 Can only speak on my own pure mally she is bred that way but soft as fcuk with me and mine that's what I went for but in working on fur or feather she focus on job in hand, but saying that her work in fields was a bonus not her 1st vocation. Never get prob with anti's tho so that's 2 bonuses. IMO she would be a good base for working type lurcher as long as you understand what that breed is known for. Quote Link to post
roybo 2,873 Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 Got a cracking mally here plenty of drive and a great nose on her she's 4 now and she's been marking and bushing from about 5 month old very good working lines sire and dam top shutz dogs. A mate got a mal x salgrey does a good job for him on most things day and night.Sounds a decent animal your mate has try and get some photos up flacko mate Quote Link to post
Flacko 1,742 Posted March 12, 2014 Report Share Posted March 12, 2014 My mate with the mal x salgrey ain't really into showing what he's got about him if you know what I mean I can ask but he's a bit of a funny fcuker likes to keep himself to himself. Take it from me it's agood honest animal that's very versatile as he says it takes as much time to keep a goodun as a badun, you know what I mean roybo. Quote Link to post

2.8 guy 403 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 I have always fancied a gsd cross, but after seeing a mali in the flesh I think they would be far better for a lurcher cross. these pics are from the net Quote Link to post
weasle 1,119 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 Nice looking animals,but every one that has one says there a handful.... The thing i like most about lurchers is there ability to turn of curl up by the fire in a sunny spot,wouldnt fancy a hyper active lurcher. 3 Quote Link to post
forest of dean redneck 11,558 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 I wondered.what a Dutch herder lurcher would be like? Quote Link to post
Bossie 90 Posted March 14, 2014 Report Share Posted March 14, 2014 They can be a handful but if you get one from mentally stable worked parents you are just fine. If worked and given the exercise they are also fine curled up in front of the fire. Just get one from proper parents. Quote Link to post
