a mate used to have, got stole though.the dog wasnt quick enough for me, although he would catch lamp and day foxes and same with rabbits.he were abit behind hares.one thing i could give the dog was he were very game.backed off nothing.id have a 3/4 out of him in a flash, just got stole. maybe the 3/4 bred would be more of an allrounder.should be able to take foxes, if bred right, i my opinion the best wheaten dogs are in ireland, if i were to get one id get one imported or one off irish wheatens.like my mates second generation half bred.good luck
