beast 1,884 Posted May 23, 2014 Report Share Posted May 23, 2014 i've never owned a 3/4 but have seen plenty working over the years. some take a lot to the greyhound, and burn out a bit as well as having some of the other greyhound faults (bit frail, bit dim). others come out like a big fast half-cross (more to the collie) and these can be superb, bright biddable and run all day, all the qualities you want from a half cross but with a touch more top end speed. i have seen one or two 3/4 bitches which really were fragile and whippety looking, not my cup of tea at all, and some dogs which must have been 28 tts and very solid. you pays yer money and you takes yer choice! 2 Quote Link to post
