Isn't a whippet x greyhound classed as a long dog? Was wondering when someone would state the obvious about this X not being a F'n LURCHER amidst the Hancock mythering/grizzling - Have had Bearded collie x greyhound (Hancock) for 5 years - yes she was a bit slow to start but she catches more than enough rabbits (caught a Winter hare too) for us - maybe the training of the dog isn't allways what it could be? Also have a (working strain) beddlington X and he's doing just as well and may be better next (2nd) year......Bad workmen blaming tools sprins to mind here guys! ;-)
