@Hemlock puts things into words far better than I ever could. Don't tar all with the same brush because it's wrong to do so. It's the same with lurchers, it's always people who work their dogs that get targeted. Yet the vast amount of lurchers are kept as pets in the UK. So its odds on alot of...
All four look like they would of fitted in well down at the HEADS DOWN ARSE UP CLUB with the other hooligans. That was the name of a unofficial terrier club down at one of the local pubs.
I'd go with @Hemlock advice and try find a greyhound vet for some information.
By the way cracking looking dog, she fair made my heart skip a beat because I LOVE LURCHERS
Just bare in mind that a pup/dog is a living breathing thing with a mind of its own, they dont have a on/off switch. What we do is mould them into our way of living and lifestyle, some are challenging but some are very easy and slot straight in there. It's not all doom n gloom, you can read...
Some people's would say you were lucky having a JRT that didn't want to play. I know of some that would drive a lot of people nuts trying to keep up with them wanting to play fetch.
They are wonderful creatures, so entertaining and a joy to watch. It's fun taking them for a walk with the lurchers and Terriers, watching how they interact with the dogs while playing. The dogs always managed to get them doing their war dance as we call. Yep great fun and happy days that have...
This is why I never contribute on posts about training dogs. Some people have one school of thought,others have a different one and the inevitable always happens...they clash.
Just like it always happens when the words Alfa and Dominant are mentioned. Some have certain views and everyone else...
Must admit I was stuck in the dark ages until I got a new phone and the lads at work gave me a crash course on modern day life. They've saved me a fortune in cash,which I'm well pleased with.
This day and age you have to be blunt and straight to the point. The farmers that live around me it drive them nuts. They dont mince there words because they are sick to the back teeth of having to say... can you put your dog on a lead please. One said to me , you try saying it day in day out...
Good on you,great dogs are greyhounds. It's pretty odds on that part of your greyhounds diet will of been raw food. It doesn't make sense to feed them cheap food when they are racing. You can't train greyhounds to run at their peak by filling its tank up with crap. From a personal point,All the...
The wonderful world of lurchers, your friend is right in a way,she is only playing. When lurchers or sighthounds are together this is how they play. When you watch them they will be running side by side trying to nip each other. At some point they will look like they are going to murder each...
I will stick with my earlier comment about breed standards and that they have wrecked dogs in the past and still today.
When a dog is struggling to do a basic thing like breathing because of breed standards. Or dogs end up crippled because breed standards say they should have a squat backend...
