Our lurcher is in but next will be kept out. I think you can avoid few bad habits and his tending to get bit clingy with every one. Flying to the door when the wife comes home that sort of thing. Just little things that bug me. Plus his crated if we all go any where so you got to worry about how long you go. At least out doors in a run you can leave for the day

funny you saying hat the last bit, got to back to loose him out, if you been out in the day your self. even though my 2 are outside in kennel/run , they hold there self's till i walk to have shit and piss, even like now this last 9 days mine have been in the garden 12 hours every day, and they still wait to go out to re leave  them, dont get me wrong i know i am very lucky that they never piss or shit on my property . but it gets my wife back at times  , say if we gone to a wedding  or just might out/meal , ie always got to get back  to  take to dogs out to be clean , ive been doing it now  near enough 11 years with old Bryn, but Buck just copied  him, like every thing else he does ,Bryn the top dog ,  so thats prob why he follows suit .?

Pups in, adult workers out, make old bones they by my side and have the run of the house and yard, picked a lurcher pup up last weekend was kept outside, took her 3 days of watching the old lurcher bitch go outside to empty when told and pups on it

Do you think they last longer without the cold damp winters outside.

Mine were indoors at night, outside during the day.

Now I have only one, she is inside all the time.

Funny you should say Ray mine won't crap in the yard he will hold it so long he gets in a right state and refuses to go. Pain in the arse to be honest espeacially for him lol

Out when I’m out and in when I’m in.......don’t care if they make my house stink, if you don’t like it don’t f****n come round

[andy26 618]

I kept my old bitch an her son in the house for the first 6 month an house trained them before putting them in the kennels an they have never pissed or shit in the kennels so I have to take them out 2/3 times a day but it's less mess in the kennels just wish I done it with the other 2
