Still on course to give her a run around February. Cheers. 17 Quote Link to post

SheepChaser 8,088 Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 Couple of questions charts - as I’ve never had anything to do with deerhounds. What size would you expect her to make ? And you say you’ll start her by 10 months ? Would she be fully grown by then. Quote Link to post

What size would you expect her to make ? And you say you’ll start her by 10 months ? Would she be fully grown by then. This is my last deer/grey, Lima, at around the same age; She made 29" and 75 lb. This pup is stockier and heavier boned, but I think she'll make around the same size, maybe not quite as tall. I think she'll be fully grown by then, but obviously not fully matured. I'll make my own evaluation when the time comes if she's ready or not. If I thinks she's not, I'll give her more time. I'll not risk ruining a dog by being impatient Cheers. 9 1 Quote Link to post
ijf 111 Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 She will be a fast bitch. From my experience with dh's I'd be leaving her till 24 months but, you know your own dog. Really like them as a breed of dog, brains to burn but can frustrate the hell out of ya at the same time. Only my experiences of a few dogs tho. I have seen some top dogs and some that would be best suited as an enormous lapdog. 1 Quote Link to post
Runner96 511 Posted December 10, 2021 Report Share Posted December 10, 2021 Really not clued up on these bigger dogs. What would be the risk running to early charts, opening up or injury? Or both Quote Link to post
