Would be good to see one working on quarry other than rabbits, reckon they could add a bit to a lurcher

A large lurcher of this breeding could take over the world and no mistake

Back in his youth

F1 x subaru, should make racy but robust pups that will give a bit of sport wherever.

Should make proper handy pups them Dilly, I hope the bitch takes for you. 

What size are the dog and bitch? She come off the track mate.? 

Quick update,  I finally got around to measuring him this morning,  he's 23-24 she's 26-27 depending on how they stood and my patience  

Never bothered before,  his hight never mattered to his heart and he's got guts to burn

I used to bother when I was a snot nosed kid, just something I don't really care about anymore.  I always thought he was bigger than he actually is.

You are right Brother,....some dogs , although small in stature, seemed to be veritable giants, in the hunting field....

Beautiful that Phil, I'd be happy with something of that stamp from this mating.  Like I said, I'm not a lurcher man, never really have been, terriers stole my heart many years ago. I do appreciate the company of a lurcher and without starting another tit for tat load of nonsense on here I just love the old type that I saw as a kid

If it looks small I call it a small dog and it’s big Iv called it a big dog never measured dogs and never got caught in asking about people have ask how big my dogs are I always say don’t know

Looking to get myself a running dog again for some interest and to get me out. I’m looking for a collie crosse type. Never hear of these going around much as it’s either saluki or bull crosses now. There was the Hancock’s etc back when I was reallly into it. Anyone out there still running or breeding this type? Tia

Spent today on a friend’s farm with this dog it felt like he was reading my mind he’s going over my grey Bitch soon

Just used Ozz over a greyhound bitch, genuine 3/4 ACD Cross, fingers crossed, he's been a hell of a dog.
