1/4 whippet x 3/4 terrier

[chilly 59]

Just wondering if any one has any experience or seen x's of this nature , was wondering if they could do the job of flushing and bushing and possibly give a run in the open with the added whippet blood ? Any pics would be nice to see 2

Any pics out there ? Would they be quick enough to catch the odd rabbit on the run then ?

i remember a 1/4 lakeland 3/4 whippet that was a decent rabbit dog over bogs and rough ground she excelled, plain little red thing, she wasnt afraid to get her feet wet, if i see the man again i'll give you an update

think he's talking about 1/4 whip rather than 1/4 terrier.

Hi Chilli theres a dvd of patterdale cross whippets ratting and to be honest think they would make a superb dog to tag along with your collie grey do you want 1 now or after hes matured a bit??

i would be interested in this type off breeding along as it can get into the cover

[chilly 59]

I'm thinking when she is a little bit older maybe , but if one came along I would be tempted , my thoughts were of maybe a half x or 3/4 terrier , preferably a smaller terrier like a pat or lakey , would want the dog to bush and flush, a little ratting maybe , was hoping the whippet blood would calm the terrier blood a little to make it easier to keep with my other dogs, add some speed ,possibly reduce the urge to go to ground, but still be tough and small enough to face cover and ratt . Maybe asking a lot I now lol

 

 

What's the DVD called stoaty ?

I'll have a look , I'm quite interested in the idea of a pat tho as would be smaller than a bedie , suppose one good thing if I got one now they could grow up together and sleep together

A half x and probably a 3/4 whippet 1/4 pat/lakie/jack russel will face cover, if you want it to get right in aboot thick cover though I would probably opt for the 1st x if you really want a bit whippet in there, not sure the whippet would calm it down a bit though,

[chilly 59]

Yes half x or 3/4 pat I'm thinking , prob easier to get hold of a half x tho , don't you think that the half whippet blood would make any diff to the tempremant ? Little better behaved lol
