cathunter 8 Posted May 5, 2010 Report Share Posted May 5, 2010 Hi i know this is not my post and will prob sound stupid, but i've seen beddy's in oz and they have a curly coat. so how do the crosses get a long coat? the beddy's i've seen are pets. but what do they ad that a very good (hard working(bussy))terrier(Not staffy but poss staffy mix) not have? would a 3/4 whippet staffy poss, do the same job? but could poss go foxes aswell? i'm not trying to be smart i would really like to know myself. as i would like a small running bitch. thanks Quote Link to post

runforyourlife 361 Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Straight whippet dog pup ideal size,game, good nose.fast You forgot to mention that they tire quickly, and that in harsh conditions they stand their looking like a piece of jelly, shivering and cowering behind the nearest cover.. Get a beddy x pal, if you want an all year dog. Plus they are hardy for fells and rocks, you go work a whippet on rough bolder stone ground, and you'l be nurseing it more that hunting it pal... Or even look at at a beddy grey mate, with a touch of collie in it, you will get everything you want and more.. 3 Quote Link to post
Hannah4181 260 Posted May 8, 2010 Report Share Posted May 8, 2010 Sounds like you've brought the exact same cross as mine! Beddy whippet and a splash of grey, fantastic little rabbit dog, very focused and constantly switched on, excellent nose, good stamina, a pleasure to train and work. 2 Quote Link to post
