Spaniel X Running Dog

[TOP POACHER!! 33]

 

What's the benefits of putting a gun dog x running dog

 

well if a lab, good feet+coat, good stamina brain, and natural retriever thats from the gun dog, the speed from the running dog , a 3/8 lab - 5/8 grey make good lurcher

I just thought the gundog would take a lot of the speed from the running dog. But I suppose it's all down to the breeding

yeh in some cases it would, but the 3/8 x 5/8 you got running dog both sides, these type prob never catch a daytime hare pre ban, but in the lamp they fill your freezer

Ive heard of a few people past and present working these type of crosses bet there brilliant for cover work on quarry good nose and little turn of speed you're not gona go far wrong

Ive got a gsp bitch I use for abit of rough shooting and cover work with the rest of my dogs and although shes doesnt work the way ive saw alot of pointers work she still grafts for me her nose is 2nd to none she covers ground like a hoover brilliant dog for me

Me and a friend was talking about the tonight, I think it's a great cross because you will have the skill set of s spaniel good nose quick to Lern, and the long dog for speed, agility, I would like to see the dog next season .

Mine is 3 this month I believe. Dam spaniel.....sire lurcher,,, she's 21 inch and quite long, heavyish front end, but lurcher looking from back....when sat looks nothing like a lurcher.

 

It's unusual to see a half cross that's not thrown black with a bit of white on it.

 

I can't comment on what all spaniel lurchers are going to work like as an all round lurcher as I only use mine for daytime mooching, but I pretty sure for daytime hunting you'll get a grafter.

 

Mines given me more pleasure to work in the daytime than any other lurcher I have owned. She would stand out in a crowd of much faster more suited looking lurchers at daytime hunting.

 

If a first cross lurcher is your thing then I can't think of any other lurcher first cross that's generally available that would touch a spaniel/ gundog lurcher at day time mooching.....

 

Sorry same old photos...i'll have to take some more

If I get chance I take a few more this/ next week and update thread. Other than that I can post a few more old ones for you if you haven't seen them. Although she still looks the same.

smart I like it

Looks and sounds and ideal cross to me and designed for a bit of ferreting and day time bushing. Able to polish a few off in the lamp as well I would imagine. Nothing not like really

I started a similar thread a while back... Seems i`me not the only one that likes the idea of a retriver / gundog cross

I just need someone with a sighthound bitch who`d be willing to join forces with me on this..

Hi I think I may have the sister to your bitch, if not then its an absolute double, mine was bred in the midlands born 27 april 14, they are bedy whippet greyhound cross working springer. my bitch is also very good all rounder and no slouch on a rabbit. I have just bred her to a first cross whippet greyhound. nice to see others with this bit of a rare cross.

No........different litter......She was an accidental mating, game keepers spaniel and very old lurcher. Her sire was a big old lad. I picked her up from a Hackness Grange North Yorkshire.....born end June/July.......they do all seem to look like peas in a pod.

 

I pretty sure I talk to a bloke on here who might have had one out of that litter you talk about,,,, I don't know for sure, but I know his had bedlington and whippet in the lurcher side.
