Also lines of rabbiting lurchers over here aren't suitable, my mate got one as a pet and it chased fies around the house constantly and was a nervous wreck so he rehomed it to a hunter. Proper hunting dogs might survive as pets but they could end up neurotic and unbearable to live with so it's not fair to dog or owner having one imo. Quote Link to post

harryshounds 1,004 Posted January 9, 2023 Report Share Posted January 9, 2023 Hunting 30yrs and one of the things I've learned, the hard way, is the dog game is full of snakes and spoofers. I hunt alone or within a tiny circle and stay well away from most of the 'dog men'. 7 Quote Link to post
