To be honest if he’s got good coursing greyhounds he’d be better off breeding f1 bedlington greyhounds as there’s a few welsh lads still nocking about with decent enough beddys there would be a lot more demand for them than whippet greyhounds the beddy greyhound are more suited to modern day hunting on any ground day or not an have a crack at any quarry there well put together for a nock of two very trainable an run every run like it’s there last there recovery time is good an last a nights lamping admitted there never going to be fast as a w/g but hunting dogs ain’t just about out an out speed anymore a clever determined runner gets the job done. Tbh I think any hints or tips of modern day working dogs you could offer Carl would be a waste of time he’s still hoping for his sabbatical return but a lot as changes since when he was active like the ban and we’ve moved on times changed gotta let him crack on I don’t think there be no line up of people off here wanting to ditch what there running an catching with to opt to get a whippet greyhound the only people I can see using this cross is people that don’t really get out an do a lot of work with a dog but occasionally gets out for the odd nights lamping here an there but attends all the country shows for lure coursing with them but good luck to Carl I think he’d be better off on a racing forum tbh I don’t think many are buying his story’s or waffle on here especially if they’ve been working dogs a while am there still at it 

What f1 beddy/greys never ,

I'm pretty sure you'd already have plenty of choices to go for mate, without waiting  for someone to create 'a line' of this 'type'.

Think it was tatsblisters on here, that made the point of some of the bigger type non peds being 'more or less' the same thing? 

There must be loads of litters and potential studs available, going through that route?

I would hope so! I would be be looking for a dog that already exists for a start. I'm not interested in any particular line, especially one that hasn't started yet, just a dog thats doing the job. 

I'm a long way off doing anything about it anyway, just musing more than anything

Gotta be more useful in modern time than a whippet greyhound as a working dog you know the uses of the cross as you got one but not many wanna breed a f1 beddy greyhound they’d rather pump beddy whippets out for pocket money

Gota agree beddy/whippets have become designer dogs and we all know Alfred was to blame for that well the original Alfred anyway the ones after were a bit of anything , any townie you meet now with a small rough haired lurcher says it’s a beddy / whippet , but after keeping beddys for over 30 years now , I love to tell them its not a good real f1 beddy/whippet will soon be like rocking horse shite to find and it’s a shame as they make excellent ferreting / bushing dogs

That’s mad! but people breed out of fanny dogs that’s what they get fanny dogs. Sadly beddy xs in general are becoming a laughing stock
