Yep, they are, as a rule, pretty laid back.  But in years gone by, I could've shown you a few deer/greys that were very prey driven on the day or night, but were still laid back before we ventured out.

i was meaning more there not that bad the only time you can let em off is if your slipping or in dark and even in the dark they will f**k off and bring shit back just from the nose or a bit a moon light 

you can let em off on walks and not have to worry unless they see something

Maybe it's down to training, but the deer crosses I've had and have were very biddable, but had prey drive at least as good as any other type I've owned.

They are like whippets and greyhounds in the kennel......quiet and well behaved.

They are running dogs, so will never be as obedient as some HPR types, or as excitable as some Terrier types.

So, easy to live with, take most stuff without any drama, and best of all, a joy to see at full stretch behind a daytime hare, fox or deer

Ive had most pures and crosses, and the deer grey just another type to me....but I like them

Cheers.

the preydrive is no we’re near other types chart you don’t hunt a deerhound x for  a few week it is just the same other types won’t stop hunting up until something is dead 

it doesn’t have out to do with training some types are just wired up with that strong preydrive mate
