Scottish deerhound.

[Gav 1,708]

As description, wanting to get another, been offered wolfhounds but would prefer a scot deer as I know the breed, only found one breeder in the highlands north of Inverness, but not very sure (ya know the feeling)!

Info appreciated anyone?

Oh needs to be pup for training and other livestock

Cheers pal, seen a few but its got to be right, if you know what I mean? I'm not after a cute pup (the wife says different) I got past sentimental forty years ago an a few mongrels later love em all the same though

How did it turn out? Great lump of food devouring attention seeking fittness fanatic at a guess

I got my first from a breeder in Evesham turned out to be very good bitch ( compared to other deerhounds) when coursing was legal. I’ll see if i can get hold of Watties no for you. If hes still breeding. He always had good working dogs. Atb

When I say "doesn't feel right" I actually mean, "what do you want, I'll get one"! You know the scenario.
