Probably is a one off. Although, now,there will be people coming on saying their 18" Beddy/Whippet takes hare for fun !! LOL !! I've seen a few 22"/23" Dogs take hare, but under 22" will be few and far between !!

 

Cheers.

a bitch called fly litter sister to my old dog, she threw very small and light compared to the rest of the litter only 22 the rest made 25/26 and were far stronger framed. the bitch was the worst ive ever seen on rabbit most times wouldnt bother with them, but daytime hares she was mustard, she took 32 on 32 consecutive days on the 33rd day she ran her hare untill she colapsed at the field edge and the hare was colapsed a few feet infront of her, true story. the bloke gave her away as a pet to a couple who live local on a canel barge shes still about know and i did hear she still hunts up and catches when given the oppertunity
