The Most Favored Possession Of The Gypsies: The Lurcher Dog
In 17th century, the Irish Gypsies and Tinkers roamed parts of Great Britain and Ireland together with their most prized companion, the Lurcher. The Lurcher is not a breed but rather just a type of dog. This creature is the result of several crossings between the sighthound and other breeds such as the Collie, Terrier and Greyhound.
