Hi just got a new lurcher hes 7 months and not sure how to train him to show/lure/course as would like him to be doing what was bred for even if only for fun,also any rules ect that apply with the above.

Probably best thing is find a club that does it. We have one near here and I've been invited to go along and watch - it's great fun. I suspect he won't need much training - lurchers being sight dogs do it on instinct. And you'll be told teh rules when you join or go along to the first event. Ours are every Sunday, I just haven't had a free Sunday since I was invited about 10 weeks ago! But I'm looking forward to it soon. Enjoy! :thumbsup:
