pre ban foxing

[whippet 99 2,613]

doesnt look much like a whippet but it was a bull whippet its head looks bigger than what it actually was as its panting it would run all day and jumped anything

im sure that dog would have no problem ending matters.........................................but would struggle to catch ................which in my opionion is a waste of time

[stabba 10,745]

Been on a dig with a "pocket rocket" and I was impressed. Never seen one on the lamp. The whippers used in these crosses aren't shivery little things. The cross we had out with us was bigger than my wheaten/grey

What tts would you say it was stabs?? coz im willin to bet it were'nt no 19tts thing

The head dont make the dog mate..ive seen dogs with heads like buckets struggle like fcukery on average sized foxes..the dog has to want to kill it..not just fight with it

22/23 maybe Stabba. Smashing animal

[birddog 1,354]

a big fast dog can learn to run slower with its quarry, a big dog with heart or fight will always be better than a wee dog with heart and fight, if i were setting out to breed for the job probably bull / grey x deerhound or saluki / grey

i havent seen that many dogs ............................but ive seen the difference in jaw power from a bull x and the difference was obvious to me

most firstx bull/grey bitches i seen in the late 's and early 90's levelled out at around the 22/23inch mark stabs..although very cloddy aswell and were considered litter wastage unless used by terrier men...That is a big size for a firstx whip/bull ..was there any greyhound in the whippets makeup to throw at that size?

[Stabs 3]

It's all Browny stuff as far as i know so maybe Stabba. I was offered a genuine half cross from Radgee and that was because it just hadn't made the size those lads wanted

[malc1 544]

if i had a choice of bull x grey or pointer x grey id go for the pointer

could just be the pic but that looks just like a pure staff

[Stuart Rope 22]

Callum is tht a staffy x whippet. Back to a staffy cause the legs look quite small or this was a windup

[dogs-n-natives 1,182]

Its not just about catching foxes or any other quarry, its almost more important that a dog can get the job done quickly and humanely which is where a bigger dog will win every time IMHO

spot on that.

[toby63 1,236]

if the dog as plenty of fire and guts in it should do the job.

aye but why have a wrestling match , a fox dog should have the deed done in seconds not minutes and imo a dog that aint much bigger than a fox is going to take time to kill

[moonlighter 1,164]

I always finish the job to be honest. 9 times out of the 10 the fox is still alive (unless your a big fat knacker who carnt run, lol) when you arrive at the seen. I'm not one for standing watching the fox die, so for me catching ability is more important than killing ability. Some dogs have different technique, some pin some shake.
