Shaun Davis 0 Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Hi to everyone, just found you all, so go gentle.... I am looking into getting a Bedlington x Whippet, pup,( pref. a bitch). I have had & worked dogs all my life, but never a bedlington x whippet. Currently have eight other working dogs, although Labs and Spaniels, so this is a totally different kettle of fish for me. Obviously she would be for working,& keeping me company during walks over the fields,and entertain, as well as a family pet and house dog. We have kennels but only use them during the warmer months- soft I know, but it also keeps the neighbours at bay! Basically the point of me coming on here and reading others comments, is getting some advice. What to look out for in a pup, or her parents, is the copper toxicosis problem beddligtons have anything I need to checkout with a pup crossed with a whippet? What is the better, a pup mothered from the bedlington, or from the whippet ? Basically, any advice this community can aid me in finding and knowing what to look out for, or problems I may face would be great... Also, I'm not really into buying a dog, (bitch) from someone who is just out to make a few quid, and has put their old Bess with some guys hound down the road...I'd like working parents on both sides and bred by someone who knows their onions, who will pass on a bit of that to a dafty like myself :-) So, If anyone also knows of a person who has an up-coming litter and matches the above, then great... I look forward to peoples replies, and thank you.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
