poacher3161 1,766 Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 If you get a dog pup out of this cross that makes 23tts or more it might make a decent allrounder bitches out of this breeding IMHO are just rabbit dogs as the size is their biggest downfall imo.atb dell Quote Link to post
runforyourlife 361 Posted January 20, 2010 Report Share Posted January 20, 2010 Yeah, they can make allrounders. I actually work with a 22" male that does all quarry plus all work with nets ferrets and other running dogs.. Quote Link to post

tommyw 0 Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 I have a greyhound bedlington cross greyhound whippet, she is only 20" at the shoulder and weighs 30lb but she has been a great dog. Would definetly recommend this cross. Would not class them as all rounders though. Quote Link to post

mattyg 1,862 Posted January 21, 2010 Report Share Posted January 21, 2010 (edited) my beddy/whipp x grey is 23" and does what i need him to do which is rabbits either bushed or ferreted and also for some odd reason he enjoys retrieving shot foxes, marks any cover and holes. he is almost 6 now so what he lacks in previous speed he more than makes up for in experience and cannyness. id say his only downfall is his coat, he is smooth coated and only need to look at a bramble and he starts bleeding, but that dosnt stop him doing his job! all pics containg fox are PREBAN or SHOT withing the hunting laws!!!
