[revmx 35]

hey guy and grils im think i want to breed my own rabbits dog and im thinking i might use my pure whippet over my staghound cross whippet but im little worried that they will throw to the whippet to much what im looking for is a lighting fast an really agile dog that has more stamina and a bigger build than a pure whippet can anyboby tell me what are they chances of the pups being more like a pure whippet now im only new to breeding dogs and this will be my first liter of pups so any advice and help would be greatly appreciated......

cheers rev

Good luck, pal. You'll probably get a bunch of abusive replies to this post.ie why bother breeding yer own shit, get someone elses's shit instead.

Personaly I'd breed yer whippet to a greyhound and then cross the best pup to yer stag/whippet.

Or, if you want to add some muscle breed yer whippet to a good english bully and cross that with yer stag/whippet.

 

Or,as you're in Australia, find yerself a linebred bull/greyhound used for pigs and, if it works out, breed it to your stag/whippet or to your whippet.

I'm an aussie too. A good dog I owned was a bull/grey mated back to a pure grey. She was a great allrounder, lots of muscle but still loads of speed. The stamina wasn't quite what I wanted but.....you can't have it all.

She did pigs, rabbits, foxes and roos (preban)

If the whip is the dog and the stag x is the bitch then the pups should throw to the bitch a bit more size wise. You will get some variation but i would think you would end up with a taller, leggier and heavier set whippet, with a mix of smooth and broken coats. How much whip is in the stag x? Also ask yourself have the dogs done enough graft etc to breed off or are you better of (with expense of litter etc) just looking for a decent pup of the type you want from proven lines and sire/dam.
