deerhound x greyhounds

[border lad 1,047]

I'm also looking at getting deerhound/greyhound x, but when breeding is there away of breeding to make sure you get rough haired or is just down to pot luck?

I have it in a book somewhere that 1st cross Deerhound x greyhound is ALWAYS smooth if both sides are pure bred. Second cross you can get rough coats.

well the ones I saw 95% of them were broken coat, to rough coat, they were a very common breed in those days the Saluki, was not around then,

and to reduce the size, they had grey/deer x bedlington/grey, that also was a common breed, advertised, in the exchange and mart every thursday, and also a lot of men wanted a dog with a rough coat,((( they thought they were harder bred dogs,

Mine is 26" and 53lb; she's gonna be a big bitch ! I'd like to see a pic of your dog. If I had went for a dog, I would have picked the big, black, rough one with the wide chest, maybe thats the one you got ?

Cheers.

Not trying to Hijack your post noddy10, but could someone say what they add to the cross please?

 

I would reccomend this cross to anyone.

 

I don't own one myself now as the size draws to much attention, they'r only drawback.

 

To answer your question,it adds everything in one dog that you would have to mix with all the other breeds rolled in to one.

I have seen quite a few of this cross run [bANNED TEXT] i used to run a small coursing club in the late 70s to the mid 80s most of the noted deerhound crosses that were very good were always those that had been bred back to collie hybreds.It used to be the case if a said dog looked like say a deer/grey it was called one for coveinience.atb dell

i owned a 2nd cross to 2nd cross bought off dave platt at 7 weeks old turned out a stunner 27 ins tts very obedient ant top class on rabbits and hares night and day if theres any used to run with the east of england club they will remember her [RIO] first class strike took 3 out of three daytime more than once plenty of speed and stamina and could jump like a stag clearing anything in her way but funnily enough would not take big stuff of any kind would course them ok but would not take them down but as i said top class on rabbits and hares on small feilds or the biggest of fens .

As soon as Bill told me there was one brindle bitch, I told him to keep it for me and I drove down from Newcastle the next day ! She is shaping up exactly as I thought she would. Very forward, in fact she tries to bully the other dogs already, at 23 weeks !

 

Cheers.

You won't regret getting this cross. Don't work it hard too early, let it mature slowly. Good nose, feet and easy on the eye as well.
