Labrador Lurchers.

Like they say don't knock it till you try it.if you want an all round knock about dog a lab x greyhound is great fun.good moochers good lampers by no means a world beater but excel at certain aspects of the game a lot better than most people expect.

So who is currently working a KNOWN lab/grey half cross?

[Bosun11 537]

Yes, a lad near me has one.

 

Oh yer, that Lab x Pat that All Terrain put up, it really can and has done all he said, the dogs got one hell of a reputation in this city.

[trenchfoot 4,243]

Yes, a lad near me has one.

[Bosun11 537]

Yes mate, to the right bitch. It's a very honest dog.

[trenchfoot 4,243]

So who has a bitch they are happy to put to it?

[Bosun11 537]

Is that for me, you or just in general Trenchy?

[trenchfoot 4,243]

Just in general. It would be interesting to monitor how a labx does. If I didnt have a 6 month old pup right now, I would seriously consider a lab x. As a collie x man, I believe they have similar physical attributes, but without some of the negative mental ones..

Looking in the gundogs and retievers section i see a lot of people have a good word on the lab x pointer as a all round hunting dog, i wouldn't mind trying a lab x wirehaired pointer x cross greyhound or saluki i think they would be a handy cross.

For me, their would be too many variables in that mix to be able to make a decision on the benefits of a labx. but I can see where you are coming from

what would the lab add that a GWP wouldn't?

Bit more biddable I guess, but anything else?
