Tumbler Lurcher

Lurchers... Thank feck for that post because all i've ever heard is negative and so the scepticism.

I'd be genuinly grateful to find out more about the dog, as i have a real interest in old lines and this line states its one of the oldest, if you would..?

Just wondering how do you define a line? As last time I had been on his site there had been outcrosses of husky and was there a gwp added? Now been on quickly an there is lab blood added,so how much tumbler base blood is left??
This is funny as none of you know the story about the husty but slate jeff for it when HE has never used one ove his OWN dogs but when a lad uses malamute or pointer or lab over his there is nothing said.jeff has never said anything to me about pointer,lab but im only going to tell the story once from what he told me.one of jeffs mates has some tumblers from him years ago and works his dogs everyday what jeff told me,now when his mate was out over a fee months he kept seeing this man with a husky and never let it off the lead from what jeffs mate had seen.so this morning jeffs mate stopped and spoke to the bloke to find out he was a vet,so jeffs mate asked why do you never let the dog off the lead to run around.the vet replied i used to but the 1st time he did the dog ran and pulled a deer,the acouple of time out again it did it again but this time the gamekeeper seen it and replied if i see that dog off the lead again doing that i will shoot it.so the dog never got let off again,so jeffs mate ask the vet if he could put it over his tumbler bitch because it did deer apart from that no other reason.i thought it was because of coat,feet,stamina but jeff said thats the story.
I didn't slate him,did any of the husky blooded tumblers go back into the line,my point is there's been lot of different crosses,so how much tumbler blood is there, is it a line bred family of lurchers,

or is it just a man breeding with anything that catches his eye,and the scruffy coated dogs are tumblers,

And yes I read that on his website years ago about the new forest vet.

Im not you did mate but there is alot on here who do because of rumours.that time i spoke to him they are all line bred from what he was saying from his great grandad to his dad then jeff but probably longer from the way he was talking.but there is some of his close friends have them and put all sorts across them from reading between the lines.but jeff breeds them piccardy crosses to my mate got one from him and he says it does big game no problem but its a nice strong thing.i personally wouldnt pay jeffs prices but some people will but if they all are like my soms dog i would get one if i wanted one or had the chance if you have but only from a pup not somebodys feck up.
