Wheatens

[Guest Lurchers2006]

Im just wondering who on here has wheaton crosses put up some pics? Saw 2 run today both run single handed, they made the ground to get to their foxes well and liked the sharp end, how do ye think they compare to the Bull x as all rounders not just fox? And finally for those that have them how are they for lamping rabbits? Heard there a good terriermans dog..

the last one i had was about five years ago now,i posted pics of the parents a few pages back.

good dog on rabbits,plenty of drive,great dog for stuff that bites back,a good wheaton cross will take it day in day out just like a good bull cross.don't think there's much in it though the wheaton will have better coat and feet imo.

i like a dog with coat and good feet , but it must be hard to get good pure wheatons to have at stud , saw a few show type who were still game but never saw any pure workers who have not been diluted with anything else all the best

Aye Taffy...she was shaping up alright. She was a joy to own and work. Phenomenal drive once she turned on and a real "person" dog...lovely temperament.
