Can't understand anyone wanting a daytime hare dog considering anything but a saluki x, must be cutting their chances down considerably crossing with a bull x.

I dont know how you would get that percentage? I remember seeing a black and tan pit bull x with a saluki years ago that came of a well known lad from barnsley but dont know if it was put to any greyhounds and some lads borrowed it and lost it out lamping.atb dell

What you need to remember is that after the first cross (50/50),all other percentages are only theoretical due to the random nature in which the genes are passed. Say a greyhound dog was put over a bull x saluki bitch, the bitch passes both bull and saluki genes randomly, so some pups could be mostly greyhound/bull and some mostly greyhound/saluki + others with a more balanced combination of the bull and saluki genes. As you can see all the pups are 50% greyhound but the other % is variable so for hare coursing the pups would be variable, some undoubtedly good but some less so.

a few years ago my friend put his saluki x greyhound bitch to a greyhound bull x saluki she had 6 pups 3 came out with bull heads and they were good on the bigger stuff not day time dogs tho. two came out featherd and there wernt much good and daytime they were ok for rabbits on the lamp but not day time they did not have enough stammner but you would have thort they wood have had a loads laking after the saluki.and one came out smooth coated but very fine showing no sigh of bull in her but very saluki like and this is one of the bitches i own and she is a good day time bitch .loads of stammner.so out of a litter of 6 only on turned out to do the daytime job .but the others turned out good lampers .its like if you put the the two best daytime dogs in england to gether it dose not mean there be any good but there is a good chance they will .

it takes a very good dog to kill a winter hare in the day, i have a saluki grey x bull grey and to me he wont catch one as he is not built for it.he aint been tested but i would be very suprised if he could :thumbs:

 

true mate, if a dog can catch a strong hare, it will catch any quarry. :thumbs: As you say alot of bullxs,with a 1/4% bull, are fast but can lack that agilty in the turning :wallbash: .It must be the bulk muscle, which makes the differnce. I found the same with my 1/4 bull 3/4 gey, i think a better x is a colliexgreyxsalukixgrey, for hares pre ban.A mate had one ,and did fox aswell ,dont know if they all do this as a x. But i do like bullxs, get the right stuff and it will do most quarry, but not daytime hares.?
