hedz31 1,308 Posted September 19, 2010 Report Share Posted September 19, 2010 possibly my favorite type of lurcher great prey drive very game and eager to please can be a little headstrong if not kept on top of when young and ive found them to be touchy with strangers ,i also think its easier to get a good wheaten cross than a bull cross because the wheaten x cross is not as popular there is not as much shit about,i also find the wheaten cross does not bring as much attention to you as the bull cross and the wheaten crosses coat hides a mulitide of sins i also hope they never get as popular as the bull cross for reasons i mentioned earlier, there is nothing a good bull cross cant do that a good wheaten cross cant do either thats fact and thats not putting bull crosses down i love bull blood also and have had a few regards hedz alright pal you fancy a night out 1 night withyour wheaton an me brother b good 2 c 2 sisters running pm me if ya fancy it atb stuboi yes pal we will have to sort a night out soon ill pm you 26 ats 3quarter wheaton quarter grey x bull greyhound sire bearded collie xgrey i crnt put piks on dnt no how to do it and yh we will go out the comment about the night out was to stuboi pal and i thought your lurcher was 3/4 wheaten 1/4 greyhound i dint know it had bull in it and bearded collie think the threads more aimed at wheaten x greyhounds pal Quote Link to post
