Greman Pointer X Greyhound

[Guest Navek]

Ive been without a lurcher for a bit now Roybo. If I still had him, Id be tempted... but with hindsight, I could find a better dog... he had a thin coat, and greyhound feet, and I know I need great feet on my dogs thesedays. Seen a really good dog was coursing blood with bull in him.... or I could wait and put her to a staghound on the other side of the pond.

 

I agree accip, more versatile than the english, and like you also said, robust in physique and nature.

what about some thing like dai bull deerhound over your bitch..Good feet good coat good bit of size and speed

i speak to the people in Ireland who bred the 1st X litter. you would struggle to pair a better dam and sire, both working and well tested over number of seasons. the greyhound bitch was coursing bred that went on to work in the field and the GWP was top notch example of the breed. i was sorely tempted.

do u no if there's any still looking for home think one would be ideal for Sunday morning doing cover with the gun club

Roybo, I had to put him down, he saw 8 seasons though, cant complain...he is missed around here, was never a dull moment with that dog around. By feck could he hunt.

 

Navek, Id have work for a dog of that breeding, but not many other folk would, (might be wrong)? Im leaning towards a faster type, the pups wont be greased lightning but Id like to catch the odd critter on the lamp too, as well as daytime on the hill.

 

I'll keep you posted

What about the Romeo coursing dog that was up for stud in here recently? He had a good looking coat.

The man seemed to have problems homing them which I thought was a bit sad. The GWP is one of the least spoiled of gundog breeds, being mostly kept and bred for work.

If it was the litter that was advertised in here about a year ago, it was a GWP x grey dog over a track bitch which was retired through injury. The breeders had the bitch only a few weeks before covering her.

 

I called them and said 'Hi I'm calling about the litter of pups.' Her response 'oh yes, which ones?' They had 4 litters on the ground at the time. That was enough info for me...

Im sure you have something in mind but if you want to use Tigger he has everything to add for a bitch , has been tested and throws some decent stuff there are a few lads on here that are running pups out of him and they are flying

the one i was thinking of the greyhound bitch had qualified for Clonmel, after her coursing days she had been worked on fox in Ireland.

Don't know about that one. They sound handy animals though. I'd love a GWP lurcher at some point...

I was talking to a friend last night that had rang about a pup but had all gone by the time he made his mind up the lad told him that the bitch had qualified for clonmel and that the gwp is a very handy dog that can hunt catch and finish what it's running

yes Bob, it sounded like they had done their homework on that litter

[bob84 189]

I didn't no he had rang about this litter till we where talking about what he's looking for in his next pup and he seemed pi**ed he'd missed this litter he's really into his foxes and thought these would have been ideal

This is one I bred accidentally from my lurcher to gsp. Best picture I have unfortunately but looks racey.

A few pic's of my gwp x saluki bull grey

he has a great nose and the most biddable lurcher i have ever owned,not a flying machine but he suits me for the type of hunting i do.
