I bet if he was put over a grew they would bin some handy little moochers Quote Link to post
wuyang 513 Posted July 7, 2016 Report Share Posted July 7, 2016 To be honest I can't work out why whippet x grey isn't more popular ,though mooching around with a small lurcher or leggy terrier/mongrel type is fun. It's what the old blokes used to use around my end when I was a young lad.....bolt with little terrier, whippet / greyhound straight up the rabbits arse....they tended to use the smaller bitches about 23/24inch I'd reckon. You need something like that around here if your bushing little horse fields.....whippets are fast, but they just don't have the stride and ability to cover the ground as quick. Quote Link to post

That's where my brindle bitch comes into her own. Daytime rabbit bashing. Not much gets passed her if the terrier flushes it out of cover. She's 24" and 44lb and I think she's similar built to whip/grey type. I forget exactly how she works out percentage wise but she's deer/collie/whip/grey... 3 Quote Link to post
hender 39 Posted July 23, 2016 Report Share Posted July 23, 2016 Always liked the look of the whirriers think they could be handy mooching dogs,I've got a dvd here phil bastey with his rat pack of patterdale whippets they are demons on the rats,not sure if they are half crosses or what.I'm sure they'd be good on rabbits etc as well.

Borr 5,825 Posted January 21 Report Share Posted January 21 An old topic but something I'd be looking at for my next little mooching companion, any of these still about , anyone running similar..... 3 Quote Link to post
TonyT 1,426 Posted January 22 Report Share Posted January 22 Ive a Bedlington ( digging) sire over a bullxwhippet. fantastic bitch. Hunts cover as good as my cocker and marks true. you wouldnt get much in a big open field i admit but in any cover shes a chance. doesnt fight , ignores stock , shes a pleasure to have round ya 5 Quote Link to post
