speedie 329 Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 does anyone know, for sure, if Phillip King still has any working irish terrier x greyhounds in his kennels? does he have any of that breeding left at all? cheers. he has no first cross irish terrier greyhounds .But he dose have some dogs with his old line or irish terrier in them but its well back in their breed.The dogs around ireland that have alot of his old lines in them seem to me to be the dogs that are talked about most.And before all the shit starts again.Why did he get out of them or not keep more of them?I dont know am asked this question almost every day even last night on the phone a lad from galway side asked why he has whippets .So im sure youl get the usual experts giving their reasions Quote Link to post
iceman001979 1,316 Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 He has prop changed the way he breed his dogs because he is just changing with the times and thinks the whippet x saulki would be a better suited dog for Ireland now days.Know a few that are running them.Smalll ,fast,can stay on and good around cover.

iceman001979 1,316 Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 Speedie had pictures off them up on another topic.as you say the best wee bitch he had had a bit off everything in her saulki x whippet think there was even jackrussell in her but speedie could clear that up suppose to be good on hares in the small fields Quote Link to post
speedie 329 Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 Well lads i did but up his little bitch and their was the usual shit about the way she is bread but she has border terrier wheaten and jack russell in her as well as whippet and saluki and other stuff some say that the saluki that is in her had lab in him .So is the bit of her that is from his old stuff i.e,( sligo express and ned ) or is it lab or the jack russell that makes her any good.Blue one i know philip a long time and i never knew him to breed 3 quarter grey hounds maybe yea might tell us the dogs it was bread from and i might be able to tell yea what breed they were NONE OF THIS IS TO START ANOTHER 30 PAGES OF SHIT BUT A GENUINE EXCHANGE OF KNOWLEDGE WOULD BE SOME THING DIFFRENT FOR A CHANGE .

Blue one 89 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 Blue one i know philip a long time and i never knew him to breed 3 quarter grey hounds maybe yea might tell us the dogs it was bread from and i might be able to tell yea what breed they were It was bred down from his irish terier x line, i got the dog off another mad, cw he was young, about 18 month, he was not the best on hare, but took the odd one, thats why he was sold to me, but, he took a lot of foxes ect with me and rabbits. His sister, cw owned and she took a lot of hares, smaller dog. cw had some good hare dogs from his lines in them days. Sorry, i could not tell you what exact names of the dogs involved were, was just told when i bought the dog, back in 96, that it was from kings irish terrier breeding and a coursing greyhound was involved.

speedie 329 Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 king breed some irish terrier greys but not many in fact i would say about 3 litters in 30 years blue .But the ones he did breed were crossed in to the dearhound strain he had at the time and in my humble opinion that is P.Ks line their was no dought other dogs in the mix along the way such as a bitch called lucy which he says himself was the tightes dog he ever seen behind a hare .Their was foxhound in her makeup and she was breed from several times and was in all the more famous dogs that came from his yard.That man that yea mention C.W is not registering with me for some reason if yea p.m me his name il be able to tell yea the dogs he had and the way they were breed Quote Link to post
