rabbits---whippet greyhound

hares----saliki greyhound

foxs--- bull greyhound

deer---deerhound greyhound

 

probably bull shit but looks on on paper..lol

[baldockbanks courser 598]

as an all rounder I hope a ..

sennsible sized

deerhound x greyhound. ( cause Im running 1 on myself! )

I dont think any other first cross would have as good a chance as taking the odd day time Hare, fox and deer. there are very few other first crosses with the speed and stamina for hare apart from the saluki 1st x and having had them for years id say finding a fox stoper is not very likely.

If you were not a specialised hunter after one particular quarry then I would say a colliex is the best first cross but if you were after something in particular then you would get the dog that suits
