Best Cross Beddy Or Wheaton

[Cleanspade 3,322]

just a thought but how many of you have had both as it is easy to say beddy. but means f all if you arnt able to compare

[Sherlock 42]

I have owned a three quarter greyhound bedlington and a three quater whippet bedlington both were excellent working dogs. I have also taken two Wheaton terrier lurchers on trial the first killed the first sheep it saw the second one switched from coursing a hare to to coursing a sheep, thankfully my mate pulled it off the sheep before it killed it . Needless to say I did not bother with either of the two. Wheaton lurchers.

in that case i would suggest rearing one from pup. not trialing someone elses mistakes

I had a bedding ton whippet bitch real good bitch done everything I asked of her and had a bull Wheaton greyhound slow to mature slow bit stupid didn't like her atall not saying there all like it but that was just my experience of the two breeds

[spindolero 1,111]

all depends on what you want to use them for.

[beddycross 18]

Why does it depend on what you use them for ? I have seen both breeds working and for the size and weight of both breeds the beddyx is pound for pound an outstanding breed on any form of quarry

i think you may have hit the nail on the head with the pound for pound analogy.

beddy crosses won't come near the wheaton x for size and power - so the bigger the game the better off you are with a bigger dog. no one wants a long drawn out struggle.

Pish av seen beddie x's thath could kill faster than bull x's beddie all day long for me though I have got a beddie grew Wheaton x pup just now

i seem to have been outvoted! haha

where's the wheaton boys when i need them??

just to be clear, you are saying that the best of the best beddy x can do same things, in same style as the best wheaton X

 

my friends in ireland who do a lot of fox work generally have wheaton and/or bull x, just an observation

[buster gonads 862]

Just ask your self why there are so many lurchers with Beddy blood in the mix compared to Wheaton , atb, buster.

been out with wheaton crosses and beddy crosses not much in them as for being stronger not having that one mate and they can and do kill fast think your thinking of a small beddy whippet i am taking a 26/27 tts greyhound beddy different animal .atb
