hi Finally managed to get the other half to upload some pics of Barney who's now 18 months old! He's the spit of Sonny who we lost to cancer. He's smaller than Sonny who was whippet/grey. We were told Barney's mix is whippet/grey/saluki/bull. No idea in what order! but who cares he's a...

Hi Lurcher AL I sooo know where you are coming from! We don't live near London unfortunately, we're much further down south. I have my second lurcher Barney who is 18 months old. My first lurcher was Sonny and he was about 3 or 4 when we rescued him. He did the charging up to people thing...

OMG! no one knows the circumstances around the pregnancy, sometimes these things happen. I don't think suggesting that pets are fine until something better comes along is either helpful or very nice, I'm sure that wasn't the case and I wish you all the best with your new addition. You can do...

Thank you all so much for you kind words and thoughts. I am heartbroken but it really helps to talk to people who understand. I never tired of looking at my gorgeous blue boy Sonny and he filled me with so much pride and joy. I'm so glad we rescued him and I would do it all over again even...

Dear K9, I struggle to write this message but I know you will all understand how I feel. Our darling boy was pts at home on Saturday. A few days before we had been given the news that he had terminal liver cancer. There were no symptoms until I noticed a swelling in his tummy and he seemed...

Thanks all, I am very proud. My first lurcher! I would dearly love a lady lurcher or grey for Sonny the blue to run and flirt with as Max is a little older and long suffering and doesn't always appreciate Sonny's attentions, but partner says no! They are not working dogs or show dogs just...

Hi I thought I'd post some pics of my two lovely dogs Max and Sonny. I love to look at the pics on the forum and thought you might like to see my beautiful rescued boys

Hillarious picture, really made me smile. I'm used to that view of Sonny!

Gorgeous looking dogs. Especially love the blue one, what's his breed/mix?

That's good to know! We don't know how old Sonny is but we think he's between 2 and 3 and he's only just started with his digging thing. A good idea to keep one hole for him to have because he is relentless too. Unfortunately his favourite one is in the centre of the lawn! Gonna take him to...

My lurcher Sonny has a new hobby! Not content with all his toys and our other dog Max to play with he has taken to a bit of landscape gardening. He loves to be in the garden with me whilst I'm doing the gardening, not that I get anything done as he steels all my tools. I can always tell when...

Hi there, I have a very bright and boisterous lurcher and we have exactly the same problems as you. He was a rescue so we don't know his history. He is very sociable if not too much so! When off the lead he charges at other dogs and jumps up at their owners. He has run at full pelt into our...

I agree, I would love a deerhound x but I know I would go for the sadest case whatever it was! I already have 2 and am not allowed to have anymore. Can't see myself ever owning anything other than a lurcher or grey. Have been on a mission to get my friends and rels to adopt, they make such...

Hi, I have a beautiful lurcher boy that I rescued. I usually trawl the rescue homes! If they would consider a non pup there is a fab lurcher/greyhound rescue centre in Evesham with some very deserving gorgeous dogs. See attached website...

Whilst cruising the adoption websites (as usual) I came across this beautiful dog called scruff at the lurcher/greyhound rescue in Evesham. Did I see on the forum some time ago someone wanting one? Anyway, he's is exactly the dog I wish I could have, if I had the room, but partner says no...

OMG that's horrendous! Hope she not in too much pain. They tear like tissue don't they? Speedy recovery!

Hiya, Anything we can do to prepare him?

Hi, So if I've got a greyhound x whippet is he a long dog? We have never raced or coursed him but would love to try as he loves to run and chase rabbits.Thinking of going to a club but worried he may be disruptive! Any tips before we get thrown out?! Kind regards

Hi Tracy, I am a new lurcher owner too. I',m so sorry you've had problems, it's a big decision to make rehoming a dog but you're right you must put your childs welfare first. We adopted Sonny last April from the local animal shelter where they only rehome to families with kids over 10 years...
