Breeding big to small

[Big bald beautiful 1,231]

Asked yesterday by a lad i see out with his whippet cross bitch, he wanted to but a 27"deerhound blooded dog over his 19" whippet cross.

I didnt think it was a good idea but the guy is addiment it can be done with no harm to the bitch.

 

i would either put something smaller over her or even better buy a bigger pup in.

I saw him again today and the lad has asked a few different lads and a few still would go ahead with the maiting.

So is it just me being over protective?

Well straight Gh's go across Whippets,

And all that sort of thing some mastiffs go across alot smaller bulls,

And they seem to produce alright,

Me personally I wouldnt, but then i only keep little un's.

yes but i wouldnt put a greyhound dog over a whippet bitch

 

Can i ask why mate?

 

If it's worries with the bitch pupping etc due to size then don't worry about that. A bitch grows her pups to her size on the inside... they do the growing on the outside.

 

Not saying the bitch couldn't have problems pupping same as any bitch... but it wouldn't be due to the greyhound.

Would a big dog with a big cock not damage a bitch with a small fanny?????????

Years ago i bred a first cross saluki/grey [29tts] to a 22 tts grey/whipp/collie and all the pups arrived without any problems .Though the adult sizes varied from 21tts to 27tts but non made the height of the sire.atvb dell

19" bitch to a 27" dog

In the "Whippet News" a few month ago, a Whippet bitch was put to a Greyhound dog. I may put my 23" bitch to a 27" dog next year; as long as you don't go to extremes, it should be ok .

Cheers.

personally breeding big to small is fine!

i wouldn't pop a large dog over a small bitch as her body needs to be able to deal with size of pups, i'd do a large bitch covered by small dog if you'd like big to small mating, having said that it can be fine, tis each to their own
