BS40liam 203 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 A mate of mine is looking at getting a new lurcher after being out of the game for 5 years or so. He wants a smaller lurcher for around d the house but something that will get him half a dozen rabbits a week ( which isn't a lot for some but enough for him) now he likes beddi crosses and asked me which I would prefer out of a 3/4 whip x bed or a second gen bred beddi whip, I told him I would choose the 3/4 whip as i haven't seen a second gen beddi whip work but got me to thinking what would you choose? And would a second gen bred beddi whip be any of a better bet than say a 1st x beddi whip? Quote Link to post
nothernlite 18,089 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 i have a second cross beddy whippet and very pleased with her and pretty surprised with her speed and has a decent nose on her and she stands at 19tts very pleased with her Quote Link to post
BS40liam 203 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Do you think there's much difference between a 2nd x beddi whip to a 1st cross northernlite? Quote Link to post
nothernlite 18,089 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 its a hard one think it just depends what it throws to the whippet or the beddy think mines went more to the whippet my we bitch on the left 5 Quote Link to post
BS40liam 203 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 She looks a solid dog compared to mine and there the same size, but then again you can't really tell on a photo. Did she take the broken coated trait or is she smooth coat? Quote Link to post

jimbobsmutts 44 Posted February 27, 2013 Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 surely he would want a pup off the parents whos workstyle suit him best, never mind the exact cross Quote Link to post
BS40liam 203 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 Did the pups from that litter keep the same height throughout or was it mixed bud? Quote Link to post
BS40liam 203 Posted February 27, 2013 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2013 surely he would want a pup off the parents whos workstyle suit him best, never mind the exact cross so he tells me hes got a choice out of 2 litters and both are from good workers and was more general chit chat as to what I would prefer, I do t no if his minds made up but to me I would of thought a 3/4 whip would of been a slight quicker but who knows what he'll go for even if he does go for one atall. I'm asking just as a general question. Quote Link to post
