Coursing Bred

[Allan P 1,149]

Seen a lot about using Coursing Bred dogs to be introduced into Lurchers. What are the benefits of this?

Do coursing bred generally have better feet and stamina, what about nose , brains and temperament?

Genuine questions, possibly thinking of going down the Coursing bred route myself.

when you get a good coursing dog you have got a good all rounder my old dog would take any thing and i mean any thing teeth the lot and he would run day and night and run all night and day i ran this dog from 10 mouth old 3 4 5 times a week and that was week in week out i have pups off this dog and he has passed on his good jeans to his off spring so a who would not wont to put speed staying power brain in to there breed

Think for all rounder it’s way forward and entered correctly they can become very good all rounders a bred litter 3 yrs ago to a Heinz 57 bitch to a line bred coursing dog whole litter above average all depends what you as person want a dog for,a personally would not have dog with out saluki in, but that’s what suits me and my needs.

it is definitely the way forward if you wont something you for a bit of every thing and can stay running all night and day coursing blood is the way to go my dog i run now out of my old dog will take any thing and is strong as a bull

Going on past lurchers I have owned imho its a better route to go down than breeding to a straight grey.
