minion 29 Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 I got banned yesterday for telling the truth. I said that the greyhounds were shot once the too old to breed or not breeding enough and puppies that didn't sell were also shot. There lots of pet / agility owners on there and that fine but too many experts lol Catherine Elliot is a clown. She actually thinks that Hancock lurchers are a breed themselves and didn't like it when I said that they no different to any other collie cross. Now, I like Hancock and had a 3/4 cross that was great so I not just a stirrer but she didn't like the truth. Quote Link to post

Phil Lloyd 10,738 Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 (edited) Where 1/2 cross and 3/4 bred lurchers are produced on masse,..the choice of Greyhound dam will often dictate the eventual outcome of a certain litter... Even when mated to Border Collies,Collie Greyhounds,Beardies and even Oz Heelers,..some grand old moms seem to produce a far better end result and consistency than others....

spannerxoxo 6 Posted October 25, 2015 Report Share Posted October 25, 2015 The thing is with the page is that there is more pet people than working Lurcher people on there and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. It's understandable that some people also don't want to see photos of rabbits and other quarry (legal or not from past or present or from Ireland) which i can understand however it doesn't bother me at all. However at the end of the day hancocks came about as they were breeding working dogs for working homes. It's in their DNA no matter what they're doing now to work if shown how to. They're Lurchers and that's their job. I've posted about working dogs or commented etc and never been banned however I didn't see your comments I'll be honest so don't know why you would be banned. Maybe it's time for someone to make a working Hancock Lurcher page to avoid all this? At the end of the day everyone's on that page for a common interest and have different jobs for the dog they've chosen. I've got no problem with pet Lurchers or working. Quite frankly as long as they're fit and healthy and being treated right I don't care what you do with them. it's a Lurcher group and people have to accept you'll get all angles of what they do 3 Quote Link to post
