joe ox 2,574 Posted January 13, 2019 Report Share Posted January 13, 2019 There is no such thing as a Minshaw lurcher, it was a tag added by peddlers to sell pups, they have different tags these days so its not used as much. 10 Quote Link to post

The blue dog that he named Minshaws blue was sired by a dog of unknown origin, Bulpa's mother was a pure collie but Bulpa was not called a collie cross he was called a minshaw. Half of blues blood unknown origin which made Bulpa half collie and quarter unknown origin leaving only a quarter of his blood to be named minshaw. Bulpa was still labelled a minshaw along with every pup he ever sired. Why was this maybe a need to cling onto a familiar name to sell pups probably? Victor minshaw had nothing to dogs that were labelled minshaw from the late 80s early 90s after that he went into breeding coursing dogs and even tried to label them minshaws 7 Quote Link to post

poxon 5,724 Posted March 28, 2019 Report Share Posted March 28, 2019 I used to see the minshaw name bummed around in the bull lurcher brigade a lot like they were some kind of special lurcher that only the real lurcher men could own like a farrari of the lurcher world lol but same said people always had there little brigade of little bummers bumming dogs up just before a litter was put on the ground ironically that the name minshaw get thrown around just as a litter was due An people thought they were buying in to something special but in reality they were just buying a lurcher no better bred than next mans bred bull x that wanted the pups off his hands soon as possible. Might start calling my bitch a pocshaw so if an when I do a litter in the future they should sell like hot cakes all I need now is some friends to bum my dogs up over the internet An were be in business 1 2 Quote Link to post
