Best Rabbiting Cross

[springfield 20]

What's people's opinions on the best cross for lamping rabbits and why. I like whippet X Greyhound with a touch of collie.

How much terrier blood half or a quarter

I work a few fields with dense hedges

As said above depends on what type of ground you favour, round my neck of the woods I don't think you can beat something with bedlington in it, my old man has a half cross beddy whippet, bedlington out of rillington lines and whippet out of Kane's stuff she wipes the floor with rabbits, getting on abit now though

Few boys up north I know keep collie xs, or terrier xs usually beddy or one lad Irish terrier x whippet.

Few of their collie xs got a dash of beddy mixed in therr as well, they out about 4 times a week catching 30-40 a time on average

And lamping the same as well.

Beddy whippets are good but I would say beddy whippet greyhound make better rabbiting dog abit more speed

Depends on terrain you work what type of work you want to do I'd either go for a whippet type or even a straight whippet if it's small type land but if the ground requires a dog with abit more leg then your Gona be looking for something with greyhound in it some people favour saluki blood in rabbiting dogs and it does prove to help o used to work dogs with beddlington blood in collie blood in and saluki blood in just depends what you think suites you you deffonatley want a steady but sharp dog that's up and at um either way

Collie whippet

I had a George Kelly bred bed whippit / greyhound, very good bunny dog, I would have another if the breeding was as good 24"tts , the bed cross dogs I've seen recently are nothing like she was , wonder if anybody has Kelly bred dogs now?

What were the feet like on your whip/grey? I've always been interested in this cross but had a lot of trouble with feet on a pure greyhound I had.Cheers.
