Fisherman Mike Posted December 30, 2013 Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 Following on from my rehoming topic before Christmas I made contact with the Lurcher rehoming forum as suggested by our venerable moderator and have now rehomed this little chap... He's a 18 month old small Lurcher/Chinese crested cross and there's definitely some Whippet in the Lurcher as I've never seen a faster dog.... even coming out of trap 6 at Swindon ! Rehomed him from a lovely young lady in Bracknell whose personal circumstances had changed and she found her self committed to longer working hours so decided to let him go. He is seriously laid back almost horizontal in fact and has been very well looked after.....Fits in perfectly in the family home has settled down in a week and we are delighted with him. Thanks again for all your suggestions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fisherman Mike Posted December 30, 2013 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2013 Very cute bet the family love him. Hope it all works out. Now don't be tight and put the heating on making him wear a house coat. Figgy He's like my wife , heating on full bore , open fire and still complains... Actually he was about to go out in to force 7 and 3 ins of rain and as he's a Chinese crested cross he's virtually hairless underneath. He is a fantastic hot water bottle though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc Holliday Posted December 31, 2013 Report Share Posted December 31, 2013 Good on you Mike! Too many folk tend to go to breeders these days plus there are a few of the outdoorsy types which are cross breeding terriers and whippets for the money.
