Strange About Deerhounds

[Maximus Ferret 2,063]

As with any cross the breeds give you the type you still have to select the right dogs to cross. The deerhound x greyhound I owned was breed fro two dogs that were doing the business every week from rabbits to feral pigs and every thing in between. That litter produced same quality dogs. I breed my bitch to a bully stag just because I was hunting a lot of pigs at the time and wanted some holding strength I've been hunting the two I kept from that litter for the last 7 years.

What kind of bull blood was in the bully stag and can you post any pictures mate. I'm interested in the idea of putting a bit of bull in and would like to see how they might shape up. Any foot problems after introducing bull blood?

I said I'd put a few pics of my lads line bred deerhound greyhound when I got the chance,he's a lovely dog and I'd have him in a heartbeat come live with me, he's 9 months old and stands at just over 27"TTS, even now we give him the odd run on a day out and he catches a few, good ferreting companion and follows the terriers when bushing catching his share so the future looks bright for him,WM

Has your lad still got the hancock pup?

No gaz, the hancock got nerve damage in its front leg after running into a tree whilst daytime bushing, hit the shoulder severing the nerve,shame but bred off non-workers they seem to not be able to take the rough and tumble of hard work, PTS and another now buried in my garden next to his other hancock, neither lived longer than 18 months and he will not get anymore of my families money again, look-a-like lurchers they should be named, LOL's, WM

Sorry to hear that.

 

Hope has better luck with this one. Pups a belter.

I think the point he is making is that some dogs are naturally (genetically) more injury prone than others. And worker X worker from dogs tested over many seasons and having not received injury is probably a better bet than from 2 untested and unknown dogs who may well be injury prone and nobody knows it.

 

Just how I interpreted what the man was saying?

my reply wasn't meant to be to you gaz I quoted wrong post. You can't say a dog is more injury prone because it's a Hancock lol, how many dogs do u know that hit stuff and don't come worse off? Does that mean that the breeding is crap?

Your pup I think had an accident hitting a post, does that mean it was injured because of untested parents? Can you see what I'm saying.

Iv seen his posts before on about his hanvocks having bad feet, well if you pick a pup with bad feet, it'll have bad feet lol

Did you read my post?

Yes I did and I said fire them up.not make them more fiery they are big enough and I imagine not much would escape it's mouth.but a bit more prey drive keenness determination and giving it there all.is what the dash of bull blood would add in my opinion

Depends to some extent on the bullcross used but also possibly some loss of the speed and stamina in the deercross.

On the upside it may add some drive and bottle maybe?

I'd say it would definitely add something and what ever it added surely would outweigh the negatives.

[king 11,984]

No Wideboy I'm not biased but I genuinely believe a dash of bull blood in a big lurcher can only benefit the dog.but like I said that's my own opinion mate.

[Maximus Ferret 2,063]

More than just a dash might defeat the object. You could end up with something too slow to catch anything that needs a big dog.

plenty staghound deerhound types in america cacthing jack rabbits coyotes whatever , if that was my ambition i would get one imported and start my own line staghound cross saluki

[king 11,984]

 

 

Everyone knows you need bull in a lurcher to fire them up lol should start a new line called "clippers" putting the fire back in the lurchers lok

 

I don't think a little dash of bull blood would harm even 1/8

That's what you said.

Yes I did say that.youve lost me now though as what you mean.

If I was 20 or 30 years younger I might think about that but in a week or two I'll be 60 so I just want to carry on with what I do as long as possible. Not mess around starting a line and having to test half a dozen youngsters to see what's worth breeding from.
