BoxRec

Seems a few wanted to know what a Lurcher is.

Michael Jennings has a Lurcher or 2 apparently.


I know Tyson had a Tiger or Lion - wtf?!

Any other Boxers have Dogs?

Crap thread but so what!

I have to agree!

They look like Greyhounds to me DG.

I thought a Lurcher was bigger and hairier.

I shall go away and consult some other sources and then return.

Different types, apparently.

I fear we're moving this one along a little too quickly........

from the top again DG now pay attention......C is for cat....D is for Dog......Dog, say it D - o - g!

next week, Breeds........

it would appear that you have indeed posted a picture of Lurchers after all

it is a "type" rather than a "breed" of dog according to wikipedia. So as all Lurchers are crossbreeds they can be a small as a whippet or as large as a deerhound. "Coat types range from being short and smooth, like that of a greyhound, to slightly longer and thicker like that of a collie, to rough and broken like that of a terrier".

So for an entertaining as well as educational boxing forum, make it Boxrec every time

I think Anthony Crolla has a Shar-pei .

I think of the long-haired lurchers as well.

Is there any truth to the news that ASTERIX is OWNED by his dog?

DG., I'm asking you nicely now to please stop being rude to me. It's gone on long enough. Thank you.

Ok.

Ita a forum - light hearted and nothing personal!


It was funny, though?

Sorry, DG, but I haven't found any of your posts funny for months.

Asterix that is a SUPERB post.
Now THAT is a lurcher

DG - correct , aside from the occasions you are wrong, you're always right

in fact it's nigh on impossible not to always be right with statements like:

Michael Jennings has a lurcher OR 2.....

Mike Tyson had a Lion OR a Tiger...
