Bed for new rescue lurcher?

[Phillpot12]

Recently adopted a lurcher and struggling to work out what bed to get. Currently on folded duvet, of course she likes the sofa/armchair more but I think it's partly because she likes to rest her head!? She also stretches out so not sure she would like a snug bed with sides!? Any brainwaves from experienced pointy owners?!

Rescue paperwork says saluki x but they think there's blue whippet and probably grey too in there too!

Long legs!

Those eyes!

She will very quickly have you trained to do ANYTHING she wants. She looks a bit disappointed you haven’t been pretrained about sofas belonging to needle noses.

If she's a lurched she'll be part grey OP as the definition of a lurcher is a Greyhound crossed with another breed :) She's absolutely gorgeous!

Our grey has had so many different types of bed over the years and to be honest loves them all! He has a round padded one with sides downstairs (which he loves) and a large memory foam square one that we got from Costco upstairs in our room and he's equally as taken with that 😊 Enjoy your lovely girlie!

Having goggled for my own curiosity half the sources seem to say it's always a Greyhound crossed with a working breed and others just say sighthound... so who knows! 🙈 Looking at your girl I'd say there's definitely grey in there. 😊

Mummabus.....I just used lurcher as a cover all bases but also refer to her as a pointy nose/sighthound/saluki x. She is gorgeous and and we already all love her. So gentle but a very playful goon but a terrible food thief !! I think I am hooked on leggy hounds! 😍

"sofas belonging to needle noses."

Yup.

In my experience it's usually the sofa 🙄😄

Actually, a lurcher doesn't have to have grey hound in at all. A lurcher is a sighthound (any of them) crossed with a working dog (any of them). I have seen photos of whippet daschunds. And seen a wolfhound/mastif. These were, understandably, at either end of the spectrum! But there are huge variations, and when you start crossing lurcher to lurcher the variations are even more interesting!
