Yep, the o p didn't specify best x for any specific purpose, just best x, beddy or wheaten, and that's ALWAYS going to be down to each individuals needs and preference

Paul, glad they gave you plenty of sport and some grub on the table, is this line still going?

Yeah its still on go my brother got line bred stuff out of it same as close friends I hopin nxt year to hav pup from em again to replac mine

going back to the size/strength of each cross, surely a pure wheaton is a good bit stronger than a straight beddy?

if you used on the same greyhound bitch as a rule the wheaton X offspring would be the more powerful types?

but i'm no biologist ! of course ya right theres no comparision providing the right wheaton is used springview are ok . and for all the difference in structure of the three quarter type one usually finds the heavier type are faster top end . atb bunnys.

only thing with a thread like this is that you hear both sides of the story,.............what works for one man may not work for another ...............

as people grow with exsperience the only way of finding out the truth of such a theory is to spend many o years with both breeds and see a number of each breed to get a valued opionion,.................apart from that you will get the opionions of people just seeing a few and owning a few...............which i dont think is a fair assumption on both the beddy and the wheaton......

what i said all through the thread i was lucky to see both work in my 40 years in this game i went over the water to watch them work end of day it is what ever suits you and your needs.atb

will it no sit without holding its collar no like my beddy x lol only messing was out today myself had a good day very pleased with my dogs and ferrets was just bolting for the dogs great fun

[lurcher330 2,297]

I have kept and worked both ,the lurchers and pure breds ,without a doubt if ye want to breed a bit more grit to the lurchers wheatens are the way but if ye want a pot filler that will do the odd fox a beddy x might be more suitable ,but talking of the pure breds an average wheaten would be as good as a great beddy if it was for working large quarry,but i have seen some bad wheatens that where worse than bad beddys but they should not be bred from to create lurchers or pure breds,but my choice would be wheaten x once it was a good one and it was bred from the right stock

[morton 5,368]

The Beddy produces a different type of lurcher than a Wheaton,different dogs that are usually bred for different disciplines in the field,for my tuppence worth the Beddy produces a wider ranging variation of working lurchers than the Wheaton,the Wheaton x would not generally suit a Beddy x owner and vice versa.
