• Amazing. I've never seen a dog photo like that first photo of hers. :)

  • She's certainly a bit unusual. Actually the proper name for this kind of hybrid is a Lurcher. Bred from a cross of (usually) a sight hound and some kind of terrier or other hunting dog. I think. I found out Lurcher stems from an Irish word that means something like thief.

  • My dad had a lurcher when we were growing up, called Tag, he was quite big, deerhound greyhound cross. Mostly incredibly lazy, napping in front of the fire or sofa when he thought no one was looking but when we used to go out in the fields he was the scourge of anything moving. Used to catch and eat rabbits whole and would go for deer unless you stopped him. Super intelligent, poachers dogs so tend to rarely bark so the lords dont catch you. They have been around in UK for ages, even mentioned back in the Mabinogion. Yours looks like it has a bit of bedlington thrown in there?
