rabbit dog

[lloydus 29]

Hi

 

im thinking about getting a small lurcher just for rabbit to start off. I guess mostly lamp and day time bushing with a little ferreting.

 

Im based in south Wales, i fancy a bedlington x whippet. Are these much slower than whippet?

 

But I've read about Powell pocket rockets. He's only down the road. Would these be better?

 

Anyway what's the best crosses for me?

 

Cheers

if your doing alot of bushing i would go for the beddy X as the coats better and theres a little less chance of the skin tearing compared to a pure whippet.

persnaly i keep away from big names breeeder as they tend 2 farming puppies out rather then putting the hard work and testing their dogs imo beddy/whippets are good rabbit dogs but i go for 3/4 whippet 1/4 beddy less terrier more whippet try and see the parent work aswell ,some can yapp on if not brought on correctly all the best with your search
