Allan.A 27 Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Very pleased for you Roy. As I said in our pm's I didn't feel this was the litter for me at the time. For certain reasons, but that doesn't mean I don't feel a certain amount of regret. For not putting my name to a pup from this litter. As others have said I feel some very special dogs could come from this breeding. On top of that it seems they will be given the best of starts from yourself. As you've said if raised properly there is no profit in lurcher pups. Especially when you take into account time and effot put into raising a litter. But it's very easy to tell your motivation is in getting a pup for yourself. I'm sure the pups will be a credit to you. 2 Quote Link to post
roybo 2,873 Posted June 1, 2014 Author Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Thanks Allan if I get a pup and it costs me what it does to buy one I'll be happy There a few going to mates for free,the couple that sell will maybe buy some of the food,can't see how anyone could make money, As I have said else where if I knew if a litter of similar bred dogs I'd have bought one, And to be honest I won't breed again although anyone who has a bitch will have to keep my name on a pup,if they ever breed lol 3 Quote Link to post
low plains drifter 10,824 Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Easy to say You'll never breed again, just wait and see the bond you get with a home bred pup it's unreal, I lost my dog last December in a hunting accident and it's still eating away at me, all the best with your pups and the mother someone's gonna be having some fun Quote Link to post
Allan.A 27 Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 (edited) I agree with both Roy and low plains drifter. I have never bred a litter, for me to go to the trouble of breeding a litter. I would have to have to have a truly exceptional bitch and access to a really great stud. I've only had two what I would call truly exceptional dogs in my life. Both males, hence I've never bred a litter. But everything ever fell into place, I would love to raise a pup I'd bred from day one. Edited June 1, 2014 by Allan.A Quote Link to post
Allan.A 27 Posted June 1, 2014 Report Share Posted June 1, 2014 Roy please keep us updated with pictures etc of the litter if it's not to much trouble. It would be interesting, also I think it could be a lesson to some on how to raise a litter and what goes into it. 1 Quote Link to post
