Learn about the Lurcher

The Lurcher is another working cross rather than a single breed, traditionally mixing a sighthound with a tougher or more trainable working dog. In this reconstruction Greyhound ancestry is joined by collie or other working-dog influence and some old black-and-tan terrier stock. The result was the classic poacher's all-rounder, built for usefulness rather than pedigree purity. Tap a circle inside to keep digging.
