Smaller the dog,bigger the lies.

.... agree with the "litle man syndrom"

it is the amount of heart and try in the dog that decided what he CAN do... but even a 100# guy can be a quarter back for a little while... til hes all busted up.

Our job to decided when hes had enough .... I am excited about what my Little dogs can do... but i am not going to push them to break down... i want to use them NEXT year :D

best hare killer was 22 1/4 week in week out all over them fens long slips ITS WHATS IN THE TANK

[ban is just a word 43]

your proberly right in what your saying but i know of people who big there 25" dogs up and make them out too be the best dog on the planet?? my mates got a beddy whippet grey that stands 20" and it puts any other dog iv seen too shame on charley yes 'even' bull crosses

The most versatile size would be between 23 to 25 imho............a dog 20 or under will limit your options, especially as a first dog as your hunting may change.

A bigger (be that height or weight) dog of the right sort will overall be more humane on certain quarry, again jmho.

 

There is no "shame" in owning a small dog or a big dog if you have them for the right reasons......its these idiots that say they take hundreds of fallow bucks with 20 inch dogs that cause the nonsense..........we know its bollocks and they know it bollocks.

 

If they had said, these are handy little tools on bunnies I would say fair play, but they seem to get the hawkers disease, you know, where they say their buzzard can take a mountain lion, that sort of nonsense.

 

As long as you keep a dog to suit yourself and your hunting and its good at its job, who gives a f**k......

i have a 23" wheaten greyhound x bitch she's only young but so far she has been put to most large game and has'nt shyed off at all and i had 28" bull x before that i would'nt of been surprized to see a rabbit chasing him a proper :wankerzo4:

[ban is just a word 43]

every dog is different its all down too personal choice not personal quarry, i think the majority of us would pick a bigger dog over a smaller dog but that isnt too say the bigger dog will be better iv seen big dogs catch rabbits better than smaller dogs and iv seen little dogs handle charlies better than bigger dogs, like i said its personal oppinion i dont care how big my dogs make aslong as they do the job

my old small dog pepper( whippet x greyhound) used to catch the roe and the foxes for fun well before my bull cross he could catch but she did it much quicker except for killing the foxes he did it in style ,i have two racey bull cross now and i do like the big dogs but i will state the little dogs are much better for different things no need for the big headed machines if they cant run there a waste of space

[lucky 578]

I'd be more interested in how a dog was bred than the size it made.....
