Noise for a Lurcher is a masssssive no no!!

You want a lurcher to use nose not noise

Try running across the land screaming see how far you get

There are some damn good running dog men on this site from over your side. Have a look at their threds and i'm sure you'll find all you need.

Catahula cross greyhound maybe? I don't know about coyote but fox are bloody difficult to catch in cover with a running dog.

You'd be better off with a hound type dog I'd guess?

I'm sure several dogs together could stop a fox/coyote through thick woodland but one on its own is going to be bloody tough.

Before the ban over here hounds were used to drive the fox from cover with running dogs used to catch as it ran across open ground.

 

Rule of thumb, running dogs for open ground and hounds or terriers for cover.

I would say couple of good bushing dogs an a couple of good lurchers should suit you fine what breed now that's the question

if you want a dog or dogs to kill yotes, you got them already there USA stags, Dan of here and Stunt run stags on yotes in your country, there use norm 3-4 dogs on a 1 yote , as from what they say the yote tough animal to kill . regards foxes no prob for 1 stag, pm Dan or Stunt and they can put you right regards any pups or lines to use .

Funny enough, I read somewhere that the registered pack The Grand Canyon hounds have 2 or 3 couple of 1/4 Saluki 3/4 Foxhounds in their pack for when the Coyote breaks covert to pull him down while still hunting like a hound.

Do a bit of research into their style of hunting.

sorry about the miss spelling you all what I was trying to say was i read the lurcher could use it nose one night i saw on the internet some people were use two lurchers to catch fox they were bringing in with game calls one of them said they like the lurcher better them the pure blood sight hound because the lurchers could pick up on one coming in before the boys pick up on them the one they said they like the best was one that was a sight hound working dog x i was just wanting to ask has one knowing of one like that using it nose
