Having owned a GSP I'm biased to say go down the pointer route. Would be interesting to see their progres!!

fuji be the man to see tried tested up on the hills with descent blood in em 

What type ye after? Must have missed it. I’d personally go pointer, always fancied a pointer cross saw a shed load 15/20 year ago when they was big up here in north east, never got round to getting on

Bedlington or Bull would be my choice,both offspring would be able to catch fox day/night...and a fair chance you could find homes for whatever you don't want then....save you knocking pups on the head?

Or half X bull/grey..breed some fast 3/4 grey 1/4 bulls???

Not knocking pointers,but you don't hear of many folk using them for a lurcher..I've seen a few over the years,but no one has kept them going breeding wise...they seem to blend in with out with other xs and fizzle out ...

Is there many folks wanting half x collie/greys these days,since Hancock stopped?

Or use  a full desert dog?

Why the insistence on no sighthound blood? You're not going to get necessarily better pups by crossing to another pure breed? What about a working lurcher with little sighthound blood in it, surely that would be a better choice using a dog that does what a lurcher is supposed to do, chase and catch things?

But you haven't said what actually breed or blood you want.

Not everybody stays doing sake thjng all the time they draft dogs, most the lads I know that worked pointer crosses lamped rabbits an hunted the fells an moors up this way, the lads who still do same thing still have the same type but a few are more into ferreting now an run little whippet crosses, they seem to suit the folk that like to hunt for the gear anyways
