Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 Alright folks, A mate of mine had a pup from Cannock. A bloke called Neil who breeds first cross beddy greyhounds. She is 6 months old now and 20" tts. Has anyone else got a dog from the same bloke or of the same breeding? What size did it make and what size would you expect a bitch of this cross to make? Thanks Gaz Quote Link to post
fazza123 517 Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 I'd expect 22in, I had one years ago that just didn't make the size, she was 19in, I was gutted ! Quote Link to post
Mr Wilkes 3,121 Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 The last time I spoke to neil he told me the dogs level out at 23" but a few have made 25"(feck me just imagine that !) and bitches 22". Quote Link to post

wirral countryman 2,110 Posted September 16, 2013 Report Share Posted September 16, 2013 My dog came from neil and so did my mates,off a different litter,mine will be 2 year old in december and stands just over 24"tts,my mates is 12 months old and about half an inch smaller but they are like peas in a pod,just like that bitch in the pic,your bitch should make around 22"tts shoulder.I would'nt worry about size with these as their prey drive is high,ours both have good straight line speed and have been better than we expected,you need to keep them very fit to get the best out of the first cross but they are a good honest dog with plenty to give,I hope your mates bitch turns out well,WM 6 Quote Link to post
