jigsaw 11,866 Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 (edited) just a fun topic i thought might be interesting(to me anyway)....I always fancied these type saluki bred hounds,,I enquired a few years ago about purchasing one but thought the parents were not bred for the right reasons,money being the only reason I thought,,other than trawling through the whole of seagulls topic,does anyone here keep this type,have seen them work on other stuff than just big rabbits ....maybe in time i will chase up on a pup of this ilk,if they are game decent lines,I know you get broken coated dogs from other x's like wheaten/deerhound etc but its the real wooly types id be likeing...I wait in hope lol thats the same feckin dog,,there was supposed to be a different dog in the 2cd photo..

They're saluki lurchers mate, go back to Merlin and Eve etc, heard a saluki cross went over a bitch belonging to Mick D, some say this is where some of these get the woolly coats from, Toby the sire to Merlin was said to be Bed/Grey X Sal/Grey 1 Quote Link to post

billhardy 2,342 Posted March 18, 2017 Report Share Posted March 18, 2017 Old Norfolk type xsalukis another words Lurcher xs the desert hounds there was plenty of these types around seventies beanie etc,Staffordshire and Leicestershire was a hot bed for them ,I believe in most parts the specific type modern breeds seem ta have made these types not has common as they were ,shame really the Lurcher types were great knock about rabbit bird jukels I suppose the desert hound was the ingredient that blessed these here isles with the best long ear killers in existence those types have given me memories from times back aways old friends now gone rip my friends of old I have no doubt halls be a hunting where Eva thy be.
