The House Lurcher: Care, Rearing And Training At Home

by JackieDrakeford (Author)

Synopsis

For those who would share their lives with the graceful, intelligent lurcher, there has, until now, been little information on how to cope with that mysterious sighthound temperament in a domestic environment. As a result of many training enquiries received over the years, Jackie Drakeford, has written The House Lurcher for owners of pet lurchers. Through the book, the reader will learn how to live happily with their lurcher at home and in public. In particular they will learn how to establish a sound recall so that their lurcher can be exercised, with confidence, off the lead. All aspects of owning and training lurchers are covered in detail, with special attention given to those coming from rescue homes.
