Looks robust,would you get another?Fennec ears.

I gave it some thought and decided I’d never get another as good as her or would ruin it by comparing it to her to much . 
I’ve got used to not having a dog now tbh when I retire maybe I will change my mind ? .

What did the bitches in Bucks litter turn out like mate its a cross i might be tempted at trying just for mooching about local and having a dog with a guarding instinct due to crime being on the increase were i live.

the bitches, made 26in, nice strong frame , but not like Buck or his  brother had. but as ive always said on here , he good pace for big dog and agilty , they all got a long stride on them, so cover ground quick,  had  good wind, bitches were the same. they bit full on as well after quarry , he landed on fookin wire  etc , but go through a wood in the dark after his quarry didnt get hurt, but i think me getting out as 10 week old pup, he tag long no prob, he got used  it, lot of his catches' were out the beam anyway , trigger on here say the same about him. it very good x as lamping dog, if you get the dogs well bred working gsd  bitch x to good greyhound ,  it do what you want deff. but because there not your your run of the mill type ( common ) lurcher , be hard to get one, maybe was lucky , ive always said on here, there deff step up from a collie x grey, and thats all i ever wanted , thats what old Buck is.

Been out with a few Alsation x Greyhound hybrids,...also seen the infamous Geofrey Batten's noted example...

I have found that , in much the same way as many other pastoral lurcher hybrids, it is best to use a nice smart sprint Greyhound, bitch as opposed to a girt big example..Many that I have seen, turn out way too big, and unless your desired quarry species is the Fallow Buck....then a massive running dog,.... is of no benifit.

I've a few images of this crossbred in my files,..when I look at these photos, I am reminded of just how useful such a strong and powerful, canny lurcher type can be....

To be honest the best dogs I’ve seen on fallow bucks & reds have all been 26tts or below. The great big 28/29tts things never seem to have the same style or technique
