Saltmoon 2,208 Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 Anyone running one of this x still? Like the look of this type of dog Quote Link to post
Dinosaurs 2,108 Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 There a cracking cross. Used to have one years ago 27-28”tts did well ended up eating baited meat & had to be pts. Got a dh gh x gh whpt & her daughter same breeding with just a tad of collie & beddy in mix. My nxt lurcher will be dg gh x collie gh if i can find the right breeding. May be worth giving Dave Slieght a ring see if hes had anyone using D. Platts stud dog over any collie gh’s?? Atb Quote Link to post
Saltmoon 2,208 Posted April 14, 2018 Report Share Posted April 14, 2018 I'm not after one but maybe for the next one I really like the deerhound x's they look very workable over most types of ground. But I'm happy with the pup I've got he should make a real good bunny dog. What would a dog of 27-28tts be like on bunnys? In my mind if the dog was flat out it would over shoot quite alot?

Expand The one i had was good on them very agile for her size but really only got going flat out after bigger stuff. Also had a pure deerhound 31 1/2””tts & she had quite a good catch rate on bunnies but nowhere as good as a lurcher. But never been into numbers so no probs. Atb Quote Link to post

Expand you might be surprised at how easy a big dog makes it look whilst catching bunnies. Quote Link to post
