Hi to everyone on the site..always been interested in deerhounds, mainly working them..hope to have some good chat

Hi Doxhope and welcome

Thank you very much

Hi Doxhope, I've read your site with interst in the past. Always interested in the hunting, having owned several Lurchers, raced Greyhounds etc. The good old days, just a Deerhound now. Would love to hear your tales of hunting with Deerhounds. Mine has caught the odd rabbit, only by luck, and never come across a hare on our walks, which would be a great sight. Had a run in with a muntjac, the muntjac won, which cost me a fortune!! Do you still breed and keep deerhounds. Mine were Deerhound/Greyhound/Collie mix, the latter for the brain, something which Deerhounds tend to lack!!

I've watched my hounds hunting Roo and I think they are pretty smart, well at least one is anyway. They split and encircle working like atrue pack. Awesome to watch. It is only one though that makes the kill, and yes Doxhope, it is the dark one

Hi Bill

Miss Noble had a great time in Australia hunting Kangeroo, I remember at one of our Uk breed shows the photographs of the hunt where displayed, and one very stupid nasty member kicked up a stink , much to Miss Nobles frustration ( thats putting it mildy )so we took them down, the member was, is partial to a bottle of gin, and I think it was nore the gin insisting it be taken down, than the member is she had been sober.

I will always remember that evening.
