Don't worry, I don't think that there are pedigree Lurchers, just thought that I would let you know about a silly woman earlier.
I went for a walk with the dogs this morning as usual, and was allready really tired anyway, when this woman with a little lurcher pup come up to me, and started talking about how great Lurchers are, I said that I agree, but Honey is a longdog but still just as great (I like using the more technical term

).
Anyway after this a little cross breed terrier come up to play, as Honey was off lead this was all fine, until the woman said that she don't like cross breeds

I said to her how can you say that when you've got a lurcher, to which she replied well she's a pedigree, although the breeder didn't register her litter

After this I was asking her questions and asked whether the breeder ment line bred and not pedigree, to which she was sure that her lurcher was a pedigree.
At this point a rabbit was in front of us, and all dogs ran when it moved, and then this woman turned on me, saying that my dogs were a bad influence making her dog chase, she had never done that before, and she don't want a dog who will run off, I should of told her that they would chase the rabbit.
At this point I asked her if she even knew what kind of dog that she had got, she had not only got a cross breed, but she had a cross breed with a high prey drive, and that Lurchers will give chase a lot if they see a small furry move fast and walked away because I couldn't be asked to say anymore, I do wonder how long she will keep that puppy though.
