Just be ready for the damage that comes with working thick bramble.

My saluki/greyxbullgrey is a real good busher, real good nose on her. the salukixgrey has awell. both can find flush and catch..but their nothing like the springer. that bitch hammers cover...and i mbh if i wanted something for bushing i'd just go for a springer if i was you mate..no whippet would ever be as good..would hate to see the skin on it as my springer gets some good holes n rips in her!

the whippets will bush to an extent, but not like a proper bushing dog does. i got one about six months ago and it allows the whippets to do what they are best at!
