BGD 6,436 Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Keep the red bitch pal, I reckon Tilly chose that one for you when she dropped it in your lap Quote Link to post
Sirblessed 2,511 Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Take the one that appears the most trainable (brains) ability with the breeding shouldn’t be an issue. Unless size is ? Quote Link to post
krawnden 1,036 Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Sounds to me like you've just about made up your mind. I wouldn't worry about the fact the merle's small - it's hardly as if she's a runty little thing. You're just comparing the size difference between biggest and largest. And it's very unlikely by the time she's full grown she'll only be whippet sized... Quote Link to post
desertbred 5,490 Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 (edited) As youve said your dogs feed your family. Put sentiment out of the window, say the litter wasnt yours, and you have travelled 300 miles for a look at the litter, your planning to spend a piece of your hard earned cash, which animal would you pick from your experience to be your companion and work colleague make a hard nose choice and dont second guess it.

TOMO 26,507 Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Like the others I would say keep both,,but you explained why you can't ,,so fair play.... I don't know who's having the pups ,,,but maybe try to place the one you don't keep,,with somone close by who's out with you a lot,,perhaps a work colleague or one of your many minions ....lol 2 Quote Link to post

ATB spot on, you deff make a choice then, if it wasnt your litter, your gut feeling said the red, well go with it, all the pups are well bred, so your in with a fighting chance anyway Quote Link to post
roybo 2,873 Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Is Tilly a similar size to dais Ruby? If so I'd imagine either should make 24" So unless the small one is very small ,or the bigger one is very big they'd pay their way. In saying that if all things are equal I'd pick a bigger bitch,as I think it opens a bit more up to them Quote Link to post
Teckers 665 Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 Is Tilly and ruby related then Roy Quote Link to post

lee 99 Posted June 9, 2016 Report Share Posted June 9, 2016 When/ if I breed a litter it's because I need a pup ..no pups promised to no one until I had my pick . In this case I would be running the 2 on until I had made my mind up, Quote Link to post
