The Lurcher
A Lurcher is a fun-loving, affectionate, lovable dog that thrives positive reinforcement training and a gentle hand, These dogs were bred to hunt rabbit and hare in Ireland and Great Britain by Irish gypsies and tinkers in the 1600s. They have inherited fast, agile movements from the sight hound crosses in them. Most Lucher's have the strong hunting instincts of the sight hounds, there for is recommended they are not off lead when on walks.
This combination also proved to be a good, obedient dog that learns commands fast. Good for outdoor type families, they are usually gentle with people, which makes an amenable companion.
they are also well known for enjoying the life of a couch potato
Reggie
is a very sweet, loving boy he is only 18 months old and already a bit scared of the big world around him,
he is very curious and likes to know what you are doing
Reggie is learning fast to be a family pet and he is learning fast to cope with so many scary things, long as he has a loving human by his side guiding him and encouraging him.
He loves people, he is so gentle, his favourite toys are teddy bears but he doesn't rip them up like most dogs
I don't think Reggie could have been a hunter, as he is far too gentle and sweet.
Reggie is being fostered in Walsall, west midlands UK,
When enough funds have been raised and when he has been neutered, Reggie will be ready for adoption.

Please give lurchers and greyhounds a chance, it isn't true what most people think, they don't need hours of exercise as they was built for speed and not endurance they are perfectly happy with two 20 min walks a day, but would follow you anywhere and for miles and be perfectly happy to do so.
