roystoncrankted 1 Posted January 23, 2008 Report Share Posted January 23, 2008 i would never keep two dogs in together under any circumstances i had a mate who had a very good terrier get killed by a lurcher a few years back and they were kenneled together for years it only takes a minute for a working dog to get fired up over the least little thing and then its either too late or a big vet bill Quote Link to post

Staghound 0 Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 i would never kennel bitches or dogs together if it could be helped. anyone that says bitches are fine pened together or dogs together are asking for trouble. ive seen sisters kill each other, brothers flog the piss out of each other, grandmothers and granddaughts go at it. non of the fights were over food either, fights over food are nothing normaly one dog backs down real quick its when they fight to be pack leader that they go to the death given the chance. it might be fine for 4 or 5 years then when it happens without warning it gets very messy. ive got a bitch at the vets now that was pack leader second to me for 8 years, i had my dogs running around in a acre pen while i was home when one bitch thought she would have a go at the old bitch and got her of her feet, the rest of the dogs joined in and pretty much killed her. its cost alot of money to save the tuff old bitch. it took 3 years to start and all happend very quick without warning once it was on Quote Link to post
Ryeuken 7 Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 in my view you should never kennel any lurchers or terriers together ! i know of and have personally experienced some terrible "accidents" RyeUken Quote Link to post
FastDogz 155 Posted January 26, 2008 Report Share Posted January 26, 2008 All down to the individual dogs in question Quote Link to post

shepp 2,285 Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 Take a look at a pack of hounds as many as you like.Just make sure they no who is the boss. Hounds have been selectively bred for hundreds of years to be pack dogs, lurchers and terriers are very much individuals. Saying that i kept two lurcher and one terrier bitches together and they never had a fight. My mate has three whippet bitches and they will kick off and try to kill one, normally without any warning.

rogue 9 Posted January 27, 2008 Report Share Posted January 27, 2008 should be ok as long as the new dog is kenneled with the old one from a young age they will have usually have a few scuffels as he grows up but these usually fade out a bit once they have worked out who is boss. a mate has two dogs together and they are fine.
