david2363 42 Posted January 22, 2013 Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 Does anyone on here have a Bedlington x Whippet or Bedlington x Greyhound bred by Pennymeadow whippets of Skelmersdale? The reason I ask is that a member of the working Bedlington forum has reported that she took her Bedlington bitch to be lined by Pennymeadows Bedlngton Highhill Asteric of Pennymeadow and she says that she has since dicovered that the Bedlington dog is a Copper Tocxicosis carrier. I just wondered if anyone has had a Bedlington lurcher sired by the same Bedlington and if so has anyones dog shown signs of suffering from Copper Toxicosis. Quote Link to post

david2363 42 Posted January 22, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 22, 2013 She says her bitch is tested clear but Pennymeadows dog is a carrier - but she says she wasn't told until after she asked around. Some Bedlington hybrid dogs have shown signs of CT so would lurchers be any different. Quote Link to post
