Lurchers and cats...


Recommended Posts

Mine are fine with our cat, its a different matter with other cats they don't know.

 

Got a mate who, a few years back had some 'very serious' fox dogs, none would go anywhere near the family cat but would destroy any other moggy on sight. ;)

Thats what im worried about mate! I dont want people reporting my pals dog for tearing up the local cats:( So if socilised well from a pup the lurcher should be ok with them?

if your mate gets it young and socialised there shouldn't be a problem you need a brave dog to tackle a cat

i have a cat which my bitch has grown up with, she is fine with her, though will give chase to another cat if given the chance, when a cat is cornered or shes catches up with the cat she'll just turn away,

yet shes a grand ferreting dog

 

another option is to get the pup used to cats and also use a racing muzzle when going out, as its lightweight doesn't look tacky as still keeps the cat safe, then it shows your doing your bit

 

all the best lurcher lass

As a general rule most dogs hate cats unless their brought up with them and socialised... Please don't post stupid comments on this thread I've already deleted quite a few from idiots, if there future posts contribute nothing of value to the site, they will be removed.... :realmad:

if he doesn't have a cat himself then it doesn't matter as long as he keeps the dog under control IE when not in his garden on a lead in the street, mine are never of the lead in our street mostly because i would never forgive myself if one got hit by a car chasing a something.

at the end of the day accidents do happen but as long as you have done all you can to prevent them then you have covered your back.

obviously it make life simpler if your dog is broken to cats less head aces for everyone, if its that much of a concern for him then get a pup get it used to lots of friendly cats that don't run at the sight of a dog, and inform the people next door you are getting a dog and don't know how it is with cats.

got my dog at 10months and wanted to cats which is a pain as i live in the centre of a town so he has to be exercised in the parks and footpaths which are all full of cats. i started him on the lead and when he went at one he got told off ;) now when he sees one and he is off the lead his ears go up but if i growl at him he will forget it. sure if i said go on he would go for it but that is no use at all!!! hope this helps...
