Unlike a bounding GWP. do you think hunting if it misses mite be a problem guys and gwp can be very head strong and deaf at a distance alot of time needed used pure pointers on grouse and woodcock and the nose has seen to be beleived and they can be mental. cant fault them for stamina will run all day. had a bitch was gwp dog over a coursing bitch, she was very good lamping dog would tackle anything, she didnt hunt up but what she started to do was on rabbits squatting she would trot up to them and then lock on point was funny at the time but got abit annoying. got some pups due in a week gwp bitch to a 1st cross bull greyhound Quote Link to post
