allenyeates Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 The best lurcher you will get will be trained by yourself from a pup unless you are very lucky. You idealy should know the parents if possible or have them recomended. Trend down here is for smaller whippet crosses either Laguna or Silver Bullet lines. If you want an adult insist on a trial and not just 1 or 2 runs. That way you can test more than catching ability(staying power recovery time from a hard run feet stoppers etc). No tial no sale!

I am looking to deal with good honsest people like I have ound on this web site Cheers Tam To be honest its very very rare that anyone will part with a decent trained dog it takes too much work to train them. By a trained one I mean a proper lurcher that will sit, stay, jump, lie and you can use ferreting or lamping. I prefered training my jack russels as to training lurcher as its easier and I wouldn't sell a ggod trained working dog you invest too much time in it. Your better off buying a pup off someone who has a rep for having good working dogs and training it yourself. Brian Plummer has written numerous decent books on the subject. The only way I can see you getting a good trained dog is if someone is packing in same as with pigeons but then his mates are tide to have first dibs or the dog will go for big money. Only time I have got a trained dog is my first and only lurcher meg. She can lamp and work with ferrets as well as jumping and sitting. She's also had hares and partridges on the lamp althrough the partridge was a fluke as she ran into a gang of them and stunned them. I got her cause the local guy I knew wanted rid of her because he was more into deer hunting and althrough she flushes them and chases them she didn't grow as much as he expected and wasn't really suited as a deer dog. She's a great rabbiting dog through I just wish I had had my driving licence when she was a two year old dog and I was into rabbiting big time. As it is I just hunted her round my dads land and still got 3 - 5 rabbits a night on land full of bushes and cover with sly rabbits. Too old now through she's 8 this year
ChrisMaidment08 Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 is she black un cos i cant se her rabbits cant

j.childs Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 try the countrymans weekly always some for sale in there off good working lines (lurchers and terriers)..reasonably priced aswell
just ask me Posted October 7, 2008 Report Posted October 7, 2008 depends on what u want but for a overall dog to cover all game wont go to far wrong with a collie greyhound cross brains to burn th best dogs i seen on the lamp was them and they can take a rabbit in the day no prob with all these new breeds about u mght find a faster dog but a cuter one i think not that just my advice am looking myself i waiting to pick up one of these anyway happy hunting
