jfd 0 Posted February 6, 2014 Report Share Posted February 6, 2014 would a jrt x whippet be fast enough for a rabbit in an open field? a straight whippet might be a bit more versatile Quote Link to post

bobhow 57 Posted February 9, 2014 Report Share Posted February 9, 2014 had a jack x whippet years ago he did catch on open fields but his main strength was snatching rabbits as they left cover if they got past him he,d press them hard they would have to go to ground i crossed this dog back to a jack these 1/4 whippet 3/4 russells were mustard in thick cover and in hedge bottoms catching plenty they all so showed no interest in going to ground Quote Link to post

Tozer 385 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Does anyone have a pictures of first cross whirriers other than bedlington? I can't find any anywhere, there is a couple of interesting 2nd generation crosses going on preloved at the minute, but none of them have put up pictures of the parents, I'm ordering the Ratting DVD with the Patterdale x Wippet just to see them work.
