zx12edge 1,001 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 The young fella is nearly 8 month old now and coming on well.He got good prey drive a cracking nose on him and a fair turn of speed for his age and a pleasure to have around . He is 27 tts and may go another inch or so He is showing a little bit of what is to come and i am well pleased with him so far.He is a bit of a gamble with his breeding but i reckon he is going to make me a good hunting companion. 13 Quote Link to post
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 What's in the breeding mate? He looks a big robust dog and he's got that look in his eye. Some feet on him too. Quote Link to post

He got some good boots on him and thick skin and a good coat so he should take a few knocks 1 Quote Link to post
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Unusual mix but could certainly make a handy animal. All the best with him. 1 Quote Link to post

Maximus Ferret 2,063 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 I look forward to seeing what this one looks like when he muscles up and hearing how he goes in the field. I know it's an unusual cross but to me there's some possibilities there. Bet he has a strong bite too. 1 Quote Link to post
trenchfoot 4,243 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 I do like the look of him! Some of the continental "herding" breeds could throw some handy/interesting animals. would you happen to have any pictures of the dam and sire? 1 Quote Link to post

I think its just human nature to try and "discover" something new or just to be different. Personally, I like many of these primitive herding/farm dogs believe that they may have something different to add to the lurcher gene puddle. 3 Quote Link to post
