    Just to make myself clear; the Beddy/Whippet 1st crosses I have seen range from around 16" to 19", these seem, to me, to small for daytime rabbits or serious lamping. The dogs I prefer are not huge, more like 22" to around 25", I have never seen the smaller type finish a course consistently quicker than the type I prefer. Of course, this is just my opinion, and we should all have the type of dog we are happy with. The "racing "type whippet is a good all rounder in the right hands. Cheers.

    Hi Blando, I cannot see any point in a Patterdale/Whippet cross, what will it do that a Bedlington/Whippet cross would not do better ? I'm not a great fan of Bed/Whippets anyway, to small for rabbitting,(o.k., many people are going to disagree with me !), and as for bushing, you may aswell have a terrier or spaniel. As far as non- ped racing type whippets are concerned, they may, and most likley did, have terrier in them long ago, but the addittion of greyhound blood from the 60's up till now is the reason why the non-peds are far faster than the peds. By the way, I am a great fan of working B

    imo i dont think it matters on the colour of your dog if your out lamping most of the time you get chased is because theyve seen a lamp not because theyve seen a white dog chasing rabbits and if theyve got nite site your fecked anyhow :whistle: i think he means something red will show up more mate(old pic below) Why not clean up the dogs injuries BEFORE taking 'photos of it ? Cheers.

    Why can't it be as easy as posting pics on smoochers ???? Cheers.

    Hi Chalckwarren, of course your'e right; all sighthounds probably do have a common ancestry, as do ALL breeds of dog. Mush, I don't know where paid gets his information from regarding the Greyhound, but the Bedu I know, who range from western Arabia to northern Arabia, Jordan, Iraq & Kuwait have probably never seen a Greyhound, let alone introduced it's blood into their Saluki's, which, because of the terrain and climate, would be a backward step anyway. Cheers.

    Was at the local quarry at 6 this morning, 2 foxes walking towards me, about 100yds away. Perfect time to try my new fox call I'd bought at the Foxhall show on Sunday! Let out a short blast and both foxes spun round and shot away immediatly!!!! I've had more success just whistling at them, at least they stop and look!!! Ah well, another 6 quid down the pan. Cheers.

    Mush, it's a discussion, not an argument. You and Paid talk about K.C. and D.N.A.; I am only talking from experience. I lived and worked in the Middle East for 26 years and can assure you the Bedu would not pollute, (as they see it), the blood of their pure bred Saluki's with any other breed. A Sheik I know received 2 lurchers from the Queens kennels at Sandringham, as a gift and allways considered them cross bred mongrels, not fit to hunt with his Saluki's, (wouldn't give them to me though!!!). My own Saluki was a gift from the Al Harbi tribe and I have a dvd of his siblings coursing, and the

    No problem Hob, knew it was a long shot, still, I've some fond memories of the Customs House, Docks Club, Parachute Club, Etc, probably before your time though !!!!! Cheers.

    Hey Hob, massive long shot, but I new a guy in Saudi who lives in Abercynnon, Phil Curry, right into rugby, drinking, etc., as I said, a long shot, but who knows ? Cheers.

    Mush, where do you get your information from ? I owned a pure bred Beduin Saluki in the Middle East for 17 years, a completly seperate breed from the Sloughi, which is a native of North Africa; as different as a Greyhound and a Deerhound in the West, and not a "new breed " by any means. Cheers.

    Next door neighbour just paid £750 for a show type Beagle pup, so what price the fabled "all round lurcher" ? If such a beast exists and came onto the market. Cheers.

    It seems to me people are having a go at you because, 1, the number of dogs you have, and, 2, the number of litters you produce. If your dogs are given the care and attention they deserve, and your pups are going to decent homes, I can't see what the problem is. Although I have 2 dogs and find it a full time job training and taking care of them; both kennelled outside, seperatly, by the way. Cheers.

    A good show, first time for my pup, of course the judge was totally biased!!!! (just joking, the pup that won my class deserved to.) The bar was freindly and cheap, just supprised there wasn't more people using it! My missus won a bottle of wine on the entry draw, which we are drinking now. Canny day oot, looking forward to Bedlington next week, maybe Geordie judges won't be so biased, my pup is a Bedlington cross after all!! Cheers.

    A few month ago I caught and returned to it's owner a German Spitz that had been living wild for 3 weeks; the "missing" poster said it could be mistaken for a big cat, and sure enough, my first sighting from about 200 yards, it looked just like a big black cat. I keep an open mind to "big cats", but I'm sure 99.0% of sightings are something else. Cheers.

    First time I was in NZ I started counting the road casualty possums on my way from Auckland to Tokaroa, soon gave up, litteraly hundreds!!! They were a pest in Toke, sitting up on the T.V. arials and ruining the reception. Up on the Coramandel there was cards in the shop windows advertising for pest controlers to kill possum for a wage and a tail bounty. I was told never eat them as a lot have been killed by poison. Cheers.

    Best of luck Paddy, enjoy the site, we all have opinions, mine normally when I come in from the bar!!! There really are some top class blokes on here, they will take the piss when warrented, but allso give good advice when needed!!! Cheers.

    Paddy, I ask if you are for real because we often get people on hunting sites who are not exactly as they seem. If you are genuine you must be naive, just look at the replies you have on other threads you have posted. As a young man you seem to have answers/opinions on subjects you simply can not have much experience of. I honestly hope you are genuine, we need youngsters coming along, but please; we all now know of your uncles success in the Forley, please keep posting, but think before you post Cheers.

    Hi Countryman, I think Paddy was replying to me, I mean no offence but his posts just seem to come over to naive, I could be wrong, just my post *** paranoia!!!!! Cheers.
  24. chartpolski
    Well I hope not, 'cause you'll soon be found out if you are. Cheers.

    I try to keep out of contentious threads, (!!!!), but is this Paddy kid for real or just taking the piss? I honestly don't know! Cheers.
