Yep I can recommend Lurcher link

Kaye had some beautiful rough and broken coated pups looking for homes recently.

I've been resisting Otter. :wub:

Kaye and folks will find you what you want and also give great advice. :thumbsup:

Hiya Paula.

Yup try the lurcherlink, as well as the lurcher section on here...know where your going on this I think...in terms of what your looking for...just trying to work out the stright combination of deerhoundxwhippet :lol: just mentally picturing that union...Sorry! Slabs were involved somewhere...

Do you have a benchmark of what size/coat/nature you are after? Every best wish to find what your after, everyone on here will help I'm sure :luck:

Why not try a bedlington X whippet- they look like little deerhounds- there is a thread in lurchers with some gorgeous pics of hairy beddy crosses :thumbsup:

OEH may well be right in directing you to bedxwhippets. :thumbsup:

Constantly come up on people saying their house is'nt big enough for a deerhound...which I cannot understand, I do not live in anything very large, in fact its a 3 bedroom with 4 kids (and all the bikes, toys, visiting friends etc., they entail) oh, and furniture, and I find a deerhound or large lurcher takes up very little houseroom... I'm too lazy to bend down to put a lead on so thats a big plus in the big un's favour :teehee:

Deerhounds and deerhound x's curl up very small. They can fit into an ordinary armchair. :thumbsup:

They make for an easier going dog than a bedlington x does in my opinion. A terrier x sighthound isn't going to be like a sighthound x sighthound.
