It would be a cross that I might want to own when my old bitch dies. I can see both breeds adding nice elements to the mix. Or 3/4 whip saluki...small and explosive hound with a little desert style to it.

I've allways thought that the Greyhound should be at least half of the Lurchers forebear, but I would love to see a Saluki X Whippet....... Back in the 60's, 70's, the owner of the greatest racing whippet, in my mind; Bilko; said he would have loved to see his his dog mated with a Saluki !

 

Cheers.

yes but thinking about it it should be a bigger dog when mated to the saluki

 

ive always been told that 23 upwards is a good coursing height

 

 

why 20 ins whippet x25 26 ins saluki i would think pups would be 23 or 24 ins

Do you have anymore info on Bilco, Was he a Ped or Non Ped Whippet ? I have looked on Archive Whippets and cant find him , Im bringing on a young Whippet very pleased with him on the track and out in the field, His breeding is racing lines and coursing,His sire was the last pre ban champ, In the coursing season 2004/05 he ran 20 courses under rules and won 17.

He is 20 inchs at the shoulder & 14.51 kg,,,31.99 pounds.

I recon such a alliance with the right dogs would compliment and produce some decent dogs.

IF anyones got any info that would be great.

Cheers
