this is a planned breeding of my brother and mine. if you like all well and good, if you dont, all well and good. The bully has more drive than we could have ever expected. both dogs are 22" and are v

Frank Sheardowns the lurcher training and hunting talks of one single handedly killing a hyena, he witnessed this himself. Big claim i know.

seen one working,(EB Dam, dhgh sire) it was quite a heavy dog but would catch a rabbit through shear determination and enjoyed stuff with teeth.

The one cross I always wanted Simo :yes:

Back in the late 80's I owned a 'genuine' working EBT, tall & rangy, this dog really could graft and though I tried putting him to both Greyhounds and Lurchers, it never happend. The big dumb b*****d was just that, when he came to stud, a big dumb b*****d! :doh:

 

There was a dog of this breeding in the early 90's called Mickey, from Leigh, who had a hell of a reputation, i've been out with some of his offspring and all were very good, took one out on trial once, but it made a right mess of a good and very timid bitch I had in the back of the motor and it went straight back, thankfully, none of the others were like that though. I'm sure Busher could tell you more about Mickey.

 

I suppose when I was after one out of my dog, I knew what I would/should be getting, but your right about the downsides to this cross, really, its painfully obvious! And when I thought about it honestly, there are far better dogs to use than EBT's!

 

Been on this site a few years now and both looked and replied to all the threds on 'em and yet still waiting to see a genuine first cross EBT/Greyhound, seen many with a percentage and read lots about folks who have 'em but the genuine article is like rocking horse shite... And maybe thats a good thing.. :hmm:

 

I still live in hope...!

I always liked them but most of them don't seem to have much muscle definition and really short turned in legs. I was talking to a guy up the road from me the other day and he said he had an EBT. I went in to see it and it was amazing. Nice and leggy with more muscle definition than I have ever seen on a dog. Was a lovely dog but still don't know if I would be confident putting it over a greyhound and spending a year on food and training just to see what one of the pups turned out like.

my buddy has just had a litter of ebt x whippet pups, first cross thay are...from what ive seen thay are going to be a handful...im not sure if thay will have the pace, thay dont look to heavy at the mo, good strong heads on them...but im sure thay would be better suited for a terrierman... :thumbs: cant comment on the parents as thay are only used for showing and havent had the chance to work, but i am taking the whippet out for him this friday..hes laguna lines so should be nippy enough :thumbs:
