irishnut 297 Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 I'm looking at getting a rabbiting dog. ferreting and lamping will be its job. question is do I go straight whippet or collie greyhound? 1/4 collie grey would obviously give me a dog possibly capable of fox too. Any suggestions welcome. Quote Link to post

blackmaggie 3,376 Posted March 11, 2015 Report Share Posted March 11, 2015 grey collie whipp or a grey beddy whip just find something with good working parents doing what you want on the kind of ground you run you have all summer to look Quote Link to post
keepitcovert 842 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Had a saluki whippet for 9 years now and as a ferreting dog shes the best ive ever owned, good on the lamp aswell. Id definately have another. Quote Link to post

irishnut 297 Posted March 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 I meant the choice is between a whippet and 1/4 collie grey. Quote Link to post
alex1987 164 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 If get a whippet.... Or 2 Quote Link to post
CraignTod 278 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 1/4 collie grey is my opinion, i have a whippet and as much as i love them, they lack 2-3 inches imo Quote Link to post
nothernlite 18,089 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Hard to beat a whippet x greyhound x what ever best of both as far as the whippet for of its mark and the greyhound for the extra couple inches Quote Link to post
kevin kiely 66 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 1/4 collie Quote Link to post
Chid 6,583 Posted March 12, 2015 Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 1/4 collie would be my choice out the 2 .. Still would prefer a mix of the 3 Quote Link to post
irishnut 297 Posted March 12, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 12, 2015 Ideally I would have a bigger choice of well bred animals to make a selection from. However 2 well bred litters is better than non Quote Link to post
