Same as most veteran lurcher enthusiasts,..I've enjoyed walking out with many different running dog hybrids? Loved them all and had success,.. and of course,..failures with them all..? AS fo

Some time back I watched a lads lurcher bitch jump over a sheep fence chasing a rabbit, the rabbit came back through and the bitch jumped back over this went on over a distance up the fence she did na

Tried calling my whippet of one or two risky chases, heart in my mouth sometimes, and eyes closed but she survived , only to succumb to cushings , cracking worker lived for work and so i put work in f

If a dog can't jump round here you'll be missing a lot of stuff.

As i just said to dogmandont we got solid hedges so things go through em not over them. 

You wouldn't want a dog jumping backwards and forwards over the mesh imo, takes too long and not an issue I've ever seen tbh. 

No I just open gates and walk through em

if a lurcher wont jump your missing a hell of a lot of stuff be it hedges or fences it needs go through or over whatevers in front of it withing reason if i see a dog pull up at a fence or hedge in my eyes its a non trier ...and opening gates....haha thats a red card here mate what about the racket?

Half our hedges are 10/12 foot high, they don't jump em they have to go through em.  Easy enough to open a gate quiet and less noise imo then clambering over it with lamp/battery and dog jumping.

I had a dog like that once that never saw a sheep off lead until he was two. One morning on the way to work I sent him off across two fields. He had a run and lost it and started heading back and I noticed he had to pass through some sheep. Thought mmm this could go wrong but he never even glanced at them and from that day I trusted him fully until he donked him self in a ditch one night :(
