paulsmithy83 567 Posted December 4, 2015 Report Share Posted December 4, 2015 All the best in your search, bit young for me for a stud and whats up with his feet. Was always taught breed a lurcher from the ground up. Feet are important part of a lurcher. Cant you buy in a better pup rather then trying to breed your own ??? 1 Quote Link to post

Yes I read that post.it's a shame isnt it.I would buy a pup as I've bred before but have had total failures before. My dog is young but I know what he's done and he's great at it.I'll try and keep him ticking over. Quote Link to post
foxbolter 447 Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 4 years old isn't too young to use a dog at stud if you can't see what you got by now you never will 2 Quote Link to post
jeemes 4,485 Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 4 years old isn't too young to use a dog at stud if you can't see what you got by now you never will I agree with you there. The dog has shown itself to be a worker and a knocked up toe is an injury not a trait, but I also agree with PS83 If a dogs not got much it must have good feet. Most lurchers are scatter bred anyway so its a bit of a lottery but why add faults. Quote Link to post
foxbolter 447 Posted December 5, 2015 Report Share Posted December 5, 2015 I was only telling what I think about the age and as for the dogs feet I don't know what they are like he only mentioned knocked toe that is not always caused by bad feet Quote Link to post
