Poacherspocket 189 Posted November 1, 2014 Report Share Posted November 1, 2014 Iv just recently posted about having a friend with a bedlington x bull/whippet and iv seen a few Bull x whippets. If you do a lot of mooching about day time, go ferreting or want a dog for ratting aswell these would be one of my first choices. But if you are planning on lamping mainly with one be sure to look for one with a longer back and not too heavy because the shorter dumpier ones can lack the speed. By the way to anyone with one that isnt a dig at them because i think my mates dog is perfect for ferreting mooching and ratting. I run a bull x whippet/grey with a dash of collie and wheaton. The extra height and length in my eyes on the land i run is essential. Id be more tempted for a bull x whippet x greyhound for all round work. 2 Quote Link to post

If I was looking a rabbiting dog I'd get a straight working bred whippet or whippet hound putting terrier or bull in them only slows them down and them rabbits ain't slow! Jmo ,all the best!
