The Lurcher and Tumbler, Welfare and Breeds Club, of which Jeff is secretary." Our policy of being discriminating in the first instance seems to be working as all seems to be quiet on the 'home finding', welfare needs side - fingers crossed!"

Our line of lurchers are very versatile. Click here to read Billy's story, an assistance dog who is living in the lap of luxury!

Training & Behaviour
Jeff recommends Cesar Millan, the Dog Whisperer as a good example of training dogs.. His methods are controversial, but Jeff reckons you should go and see him and make your own judgement. Check out his web site http://www.cesarsway.com

Lurcher Tee-shirts are available click this sentence to find out more.

One of Mini's pups has gone to Colorado in America to visitors who fell in love with Sam and Ben whilst staying with their family in Yorkshire, England.

The waiting list for pups, as usual, outstrips the supply which is what we encourage so we can ensure only the best owners get their hands on our babies!

New home sometimes needed As we are very thorough in the people we choose to have our pups, it is very rare (generally due to unforeseen family circumstances) to have adult dogs that need re-homing. If you are interested in putting your name on the list please contact Jeff on 01933 381089.

An update on the club puppy waiting list.

Unfortunately, as we don’t encourage puppy farming, people have been on our waiting list far too long, and it has got out of date. Rather than us having to ring loads of people, who have settled for something else in the meantime, please could all those presently interested contact Jeff on 01933 381089 (evenings), immediately, so he can update the list.

Also others are planning to breed between now and spring
( Leicestershire, Yorkshire and Somerset). So if you really do want this superior genuine blood lines, why settle for inferior, mere imitations.

Kay from Kline Studios has two of our dogs, Bruce and Boyce. When his daughter was born he thought he would have to re home them as they live in a flat, and thought it might be too much to handle, but as you can see by the photo above nothing could be further from the truth! Our strain are calm and gentle and make excellent family pets. Click here to go to Bruce & Boyce's gallery page.
If you have news of or are lucky enough to share your life with a Lurcher or Tumbler of the old-fashioned bloodlines, please share your joy with us, especially if you have clear photos or interesting tales to share. This page is yours - with the usual editing provisos
