  1. Good question ! I tend to agree with Socks; I've allways thought of Beddy/Staffy/APBT crosses as "Lurchers" and JRT/Patt/Fell/Border/Lakie crosses as "Wirriers; but I'm sure both terms could be used for ALL types of Terrier/Whippet crosses ! Cheers. PS, I don't think the name "Whirrier" is new; I've heard it used for at least 40 years. Cheers.
  2. Moo, my young bitch isn't a pure Deerhound; she's a 1st cross Deer/Grey. And I know what you mean about them not growing old... she frightens the life out me at times, the way she takes obstacles at full speed ! cheers. Bosun, it's a hypothetical question I'm asking. I wouldn't hesitate in advising anyone to use Bruce as a stud. Cheers.
  3. Behave yourself !! LOL !! Bull cross Cheers.
  4. Bruce has got everything needed, except one thing; we haven't got a clue how he's bred, except that he is out of a pure Greyhound bitch. Cheers.
  5. It'll be a few seasons yet, before Lima gets lined !! She's only had one season of graft!! But got to admit; she does the graft ! Cheers.
  6. He hasn't done half as much as his sister..... but I'll keep him in mind !! LOL !! Cheers.
  7. Good reply mate ! Yes that would be a good stud for her.... if it had been worked and was from working stock ! Cheers.
  8. You obviously know nothing about cats ! I've seen one of the best dogs laid up after tackling, and killing, a cat !! An old bloke said "f**k cats !! A fox has teeth, but a cat has teeth AND claws " ! In fact, you know nothing about dogs if you think cats are a good way to bring pups on !!!
  9. Dan, Dan, Dan, !!!!!! You want me to put Saluki blood into my dogs ????? You know what I think about pencil knecked snakeheads !! LOL !!! Cheers. Saluki my ass. That's like sayin greyhounds have bulldog in them cuz somebody wrote it down in a book 100 years ago. That pic you put up looks like a snakehead to me !! May be a good dog thought.... Cheers.
  10. That would be great, if I could find a decent working one. Cheers.
  11. Dan, Dan, Dan, !!!!!! You want me to put Saluki blood into my dogs ????? You know what I think about pencil knecked snakeheads !! LOL !!! Cheers.
  12. Yes mate, there are some tremendous Grews around ! I go to the Whippet Racing most weekends and some of these Non-Ped Whippet x Greyhounds are unbelievably fast ! But the bitch is fast enough, and I'd just want to keep the speed but increase the size of the pups if possible ! Cheers.
  13. I probably won't mate her; I've never bred a litter in almost 45 years of owning running dogs, BUT.. If I was to, I wouldn't introduce another breed into the line; so would probably go against the current THL line of thinking and use a top class Greyhound, or a 1/4 beddy 3/4 grey or a 1/4 Deer 3/4 Grey ! Cheers.
  14. I agree Simo; I have in mind what I want, but thought I might get an interesting discussion goin. Cheers.
  15. Thanks for the reply, but wouldn't let a collie cross near her ! LOL ! Had Collie X before, and just not my type. Cheers.
  16. Just asking for a general opinion; I have a bitch, coming up six year old, Sire; 1st cross Beddy/Grey... Dam Deer/Grey x Whippet/Grey. Good all rounder, taken just about everything day and night. Good rough coat, good feet, stands 23". She's fast and has good wind. If I was to have her lined, I'd want all her attributes, plus a bit more hieght in the pups, I have in mind what I'd put her to, but would be interested to hear others opinions. Cheers.
  17. Is the big fella going to be a show dog during the summer, Davey ?? LOL !! Cheers.
  18. I'm sure the coursing lads will put me right; but way back in the Merlin and Eve lines, wasn't there Bedlington and Deerhound, as well as Saluki ? Cheers.
  19. So he's a Saluki/Greyhound Hybrid; not a pure Saluki x Saluki/Greyhound ? Looks very nice, good luck with him. Cheers.
  20. In Australia and New Zealand, feral cats are very high on the list of "unwanted predators" ! The Ozzy hunting lads think it strange that we here in the UK don't kill them on sight ! In NZ they were/are the most responsible predator of indiginous ground nesting birds. Even here in the UK they kill millions of birds, but nobody ever wants to say the killed a feral cat, because of their cuddly pet status, when actualy a feral cat, or a cat let out every night, is a very efficient killer ! Cheers.
  21. I'd swap Mike Ashley for an Arab billionaire any day !!! Cheers.
  22. I don't think these were designed to catch wolves, mate ! More to catch dollars and pounds !! LOL !! Cheers.
  23. Ah, is that what they are, cheers CP Mini Borzoi type things, though from that pic I wouldn't call 'em lookers, a few other names spring to mind though! The woman in the 'states that "invented" them, claims to have "rediscovered" rough coated Whippets !! She also happens to breed Borzois and pedigree Whippets, so it doesn't take much working out where these "windhounds" came from !! LOL !! Yeah I think they are "lookers"... would I have one... no ! LOL ! Cheers.
  24. glad you think they are lookers Yeah, I think they are "lookers"; don't you ? They look like hairy kc Whippets; can't imagine them doing much graft though ! Cheers.
