buster gonads 862 Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 I think a good leggy Plummer X Whippet would make a usefull ferreting companion, it would give it some nose thats for sure, and the extra size should stop it going to ground, buster. Quote Link to post

johnny boy68 11,726 Posted January 27, 2013 Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 You won't go far wrong with the usual suspects(beddys and bulls) though I suppose the other terrier breeds can bring something but we've got plenty of beddy x's and bull x's around, so it would be no need to take a chance imo.

benchick 42 Posted January 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2013 Id like to see Irish terrier x grey or even the less common airdale it has lightesh enough frame long legs any pics interesting. Yh ive seen penny taylors airedale lurcher in the countrymans weekley looks ok but the one i keep thinking of is an irish fox terrier x whippet or grey, speed and lengh of a grey with a the dense coat and good drive of the terrier in theory it seems like it could work as well as any other, would still love to see some pictures of any uncommon crosses people have.
