Widerunner 5 Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Hi I'm looking for a sire for a greyhound bitch. I started a thread last Sunday but it somehow got deleted I think, because I can't find it for love nor money. She is an ex racer, but has taken to making short work of what the terriers flush from the bushes. I have two homes waiting for pups and I would keep one myself. She won't be in season for a while, so I thought I would do a bit of research. I'm preferably looking for a Beddy x Whippet or a Wheaton x Whippet. I have never posted on here before but have been an keen reader of THL for a while now. Any constructive welcomed. Cheers. Quote Link to post

Widerunner 5 Posted November 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Brock why do you recommend a full saluki? I was really looking to bring her offspring down in size a little bit, as she stands 25 . Quote Link to post
Bigchopper 36 Posted November 24, 2013 Report Share Posted November 24, 2013 Where are you from mate? I have a young lad he is saluki grey- bedlington whippet. He's got loads of character n great on rabbit and seen other things. On your number if interested n I'll send piks. I'm still putting time into the lad but I'm thinking of a new pup to bring along side him and this might work for both of us. 1 Quote Link to post

Widerunner 5 Posted September 9, 2014 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2014 Alright guys, I couldn't find the right dog for this bitch when she was in season last time, so decided to leave it rather than just breed with anything. Still looking to bring the height down a bit and thicken the coat as she often gets cuts and grazes from her thin coat and skin. She is due to break in the next week or so. She is a small stocky greyhound with ridiculous prey drive. Will try and put a couple of pics up later. Cheers for any info. 3 Quote Link to post

Cheers for any info. why not use cleanspade wheatenxwhippet ? it will drop the height, give better coat, and should have plenty of fire in in from the terrier in the mix 1 Quote Link to post
