Somewhereyournot 1,117 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 My Hancock bitch was more or less half cross and one thing she didn't lack was pace !those Alex bred dogs were known to throw racey, whether that tiny bit extra grey in Alex made a difference who knows. One thing though them half x put stuff to bed whether people like it or not, right hands they make good dogs Quote Link to post

storm323 191 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Many salukis over with you ? What will you be hunting with it ? Quote Link to post
paulsmithy83 567 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 I think an old pro wouldn't care on percentages they don't mean anything in real terms. I'd more care what the parents grand and great grand parents had done and if that suited me there a good CHANCE with luck for the pup to do the same 1 Quote Link to post
D Lloyd 2,790 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Either or would suffice imo,I'd personally get one from proven working parents so not exactly a 1st cross but a 2nd or 3rd generation cross or in layman's term a collie x grey X collie x grey,still a collie/ grey but 2nd generation or even tenth generation lol as long as they are all worked & tested somewhat..good luck & enjoy what lays ahead buddy saved me typ in lol Quote Link to post
frankel 2,123 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 I wouldn't look into percentages in a dog, get a pup from proven parents. Half the battle is done there. Quote Link to post
buster gonads 862 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Some lads have mentioned having Bull in the mix, imho if the "right" Greyhound is used the offspring should have enough gut and fire in the belly for any job. A good greyhound fears nothing. 4 Quote Link to post

A good greyhound fears nothing. It might not fear nothing until it runs into something that bites back with venom, then you'll thank your lucky stars it has got Bull in it. 1 Quote Link to post

Somewhereyournot 1,117 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Ye, cos bull xs don't jack do they lol! Quote Link to post
king 11,972 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Ye, cos bull xs don't jack do they lol!Of course they jack you should know that.But being anti bull like you are that's a normal comment from you. I would say that a bull will be able to take and sometimes enjoy having some stick from teeth. It's funny how greyhounds weren't used in pits. But apbt were. That's the simple answer why bull greys are used and preferred by many lads.especially if it's out a good few times a week taking teeth. And used for other things.were it might take some stick. 1 Quote Link to post

It don't matter what's in a dog if it don't like getting stick it'll jack. I know bull xs jack have gone out and been around a few that mates have owned and talk to honest fellas who own them and will admit it. If I was into thing that bite back I too would probably get a bull greyhound, their pain threshold will be better than any other cross as a majority. Let's not start it into a slanging match, as said that comment was meant for the fella saying u be thanking yourself it got bull in it. Quote Link to post
DogFox123 1,379 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Ye, cos bull xs don't jack do they lol! Not half as much as a Greyhound would.... Quote Link to post
Somewhereyournot 1,117 Posted April 28, 2016 Report Share Posted April 28, 2016 Honest question now, how many of you have run greyhounds to come to this conclusion? How many of you are genuinely out 4 nights a week taking 3 winter foxes a night or more!? I can't see many doing it, and to use the same dog....sometimes wonder about this site of how many honest people are about. Lol 2 Quote Link to post
