Yes,. .Anastasia produced a better class of Deerhound for the original job, and some, were even passable at organised hare coursing,.. (although it was never their proper vocation).. Back in the

I was the judge and gave it “Champion Lurcher” , based solely on looks, condition, conformation and temperament. Its impossible to judge on working ability unless you have personally seen the dog

Like most others, there’s good and bad. They are very easy going and easy to live with. Of course there will be better rabbiting dogs, hare dogs, fox dogs, deer dogs, but I’ve found deer/greys ca

Frank lived in the same town as I grew up in when I was a teenager,Still the closest town to me now.Fella I used to work terriers with parents had deerhound crosses off Frank in the 80s and his mum is in that book with one of her bitches.Another pal of mine had a genuine first cross in the late 80s that was mustard.Not a big bitch for a first cross.Killed foxes for fun and retrieved them.We would drive about in my pals marina van and she'd jump out of the window,catch rabbits and jump back through the window with the rabbit in her mouth.I couldn't believe it when he sold her to get a saluki cross as his parents would only let him have 1 dog.

Same bitch liked a smoke as well.If it saw you light something up round his garden it would make a beeline for you and hang around you till you blew some smoke in its face.If it was just a roll up it would f**k off and lay down but if it was a joint it would hang around you for a few more puffs.
