Lurcher is a cross breed though, not a breed, so it depend what breeds have gone into her, and perhaps, which side dominates as to when she calms down. Milly in general.is very calm in the house, but that could be the sighthound in her. 25 сент. 2014 г.

Can you train a Lurcher not to chase?
You can also do both! This takes a lot of work, practice and time. Don't then just let them off lead and expect them not to chase until this is so engrained in them that they are making the right decision every single time. Off lead exercise is NOT essential.
