great post+ pics, my 1st memories of lurchers were as a kid 50 odd years ago, and travelers/tinkers had them with little terriers for catching rabbits and hares, they seemed to catch most stuff close to hedges even hares were killed close from what i seen .

Definitely a hunting partner Darbo I would say. Plains Indians always seem to have dogs about them in old pics. Wonder what became of Custers hounds after his demise ? Bet that man seen some sights on his ventures. He went missing one day by himself while in hostile territory. An indian scout found him next to his dead horse. He had shot it in head while getting carried away hunting with his staghounds! Lucky he weren't killed or worse found by enemy Indians or would have had a sooner demise. atb.
