boyo 1,398 Posted July 11, 2011 Report Share Posted July 11, 2011 stubblebasher i dont lie that bitch caught plenty of hares dead of winter all given fair law in front of plenty of witnesses on big land and small land whether you believe that is up to you .but theres a few on here seen her do it .when i had her i was into lamping and mouching abpout as well as the coursing where as now i only do the one thing so only keep the one type .what is it about certain people that think only saluki crosses can catch long ears there was plenty getting caught 30 and 40 years ago before the saluki was so popular .i love all running dogs and can see the merits in all the differant crosses . and one other thing she could and did catch them on plough and seed from start to end of season. 2 Quote Link to post

nokia 0 Posted July 14, 2011 Report Share Posted July 14, 2011 Daves dogs are tested all over the world they are taking coyote in america and from kangaroo to wild boar in australia. Hes recently sent one to florida where they are entered on fox before moving onto coyote, sounds to me like its the place to be!! Over there they tend use reverse 3/4s and 1/2 crosses but what im getting at is that they are being tested thoroughly. After useing mike browns whippet 21" glen strike while the irons hot over my 27" 3/4 greyhound 1/4 deerhound I have a litter of cracking pups which have been bred for my own use. These pups are 1/2 whippet 3/8 greyhound 1/8 deerhound. I have 3 dogs and 3 bitchs broken and smooth coated to sell if anybody is interested pm me. Quote Link to post
