Can be a good mix for mouching and a cross a would prefer rather than the first crosses used.

[Big Jim101 29]

good to hear! hoping itll just be a nice all rounder, doesnt have to be a world beater. just hope it doesnt lack too much speed that a 3/4 sight hound would have??

Take care you could end up owning a bedlington/ collie with the brains of a greyhound and the skin of a whippet.

Why have you had one like that

[Sherlock 42]

In reply to your question poacher3161 yes. The c/g was 24 tts the b/w was 21 tts and the bitch that I bought ended up at 18 tts .The mendelian rules of genetics certainly came true with tha little bitch. After that bitch I always used the worst case scenario of how big was the largest grandparent and how small was the smallest grandparent ,when ever I have bought a pup.

Big Jim101 type Mendelian Inheritance into your computer and look at wiki pages, it is all explained on there.

You always can get wastage in a litter. You just pick you pup and hope for the best.

Born to run 1083, you just pick your pup and hope for the best. With a bit of knowledge you can increase your chances of buying the perfect pup. This will reduce its chances of being advertised on the puppy for sale sites in twelve months time. Knowledge is power,Fore armed is fore warned as they say.

I kept and bred a mix of collie/grey x beddy/grey for years and also bred numeruse litters and never produced anything under 21tts although they were variations in their coats and body shapes but non ever threw to just a mix of collie and bedlington and all had pace enough to catch rabbits maybe if pedigree whippet is in the breeding as well as beddy then that can up your chances of produceing small dogs.
