Lloydeyif honesty ever again shone its head in whats required from hunting,a whippet would not shine in our lamplight,they are 3rd rate at the best of times,if honesty ever caught a a piss poor gallop,Whippetys are the best type of mutt to advance the type of lurcher they befit.

I like hunting the edible stuff,love cooking/eating as well,can't beat some rabbit fajitas or a nice stew.Also like a bit of ratting and daytime mooching/bushing great seeing all the dogs working together.

Makes sense morton,each to there own.Suppose it's a lot to do with personal preference and what suits the terrain your hunting on. Quote Link to post
Bosun11 537 Posted September 13, 2015 Report Share Posted September 13, 2015 I'd have patience and wouldn't be overbothered whats in the mix. Provided the parents are solid grafters on the quarry you want to hunt. North Wales has always had some cracking lurchers, from long lines of 'from pedigree unknown' grafters, or it did have... I'd like to think they are still there... Somewhere! Quote Link to post
