How Would They Turn Out..

[Joe1888 672]

Before i continue, i have no plans to breed mine anytime soon, if at all. Everytime the bitch comes into season, the thought crosses my mind, maybe one day, how would the pups shape up... Mine are no world beaters, braw pot lickers lol but i do like the idea of maybe having a pup from them later on in life, its just all the cons that come with having a litter...

 

For those who are good with %s and guessing the results lol, id appreciate your thoughts on how a litter from these two would shape up

 

 

My bitches sire was a bull x greyhound and dam kelpie x greyhound

 

My dogs dam is saluki x collie/grey and sire is a grew

 

Both Kelt and Glen are 25 tts

if you had somewhere to run them on til about 5r6months you would get a better idea,depending what your after,theres plenty of grew in the mix if your looking something faster than the ma n da.

As said pot luck all you can do is take them out as often as you can and hope they got it in them

Lovely hounds ?

What the offspring would look like is irrelevant but if it is relevant then they would be rosette winners for sure lol,if your own dogs do their work well & you intend on running the same gear on the same type of land then just do it matey.

If you were to breed from then they would be more or less Greyhounds. Neither share blood that isn't greyhound so no chance of anything else changing things. Height , build, colour, coat. as a greyhound. But they are lurchers not pue bred greyhounds so you would never know for sure until you try. If you like them , keep the blood. When it's gone it's gone.

its not even certain with pure bred greyhounds-saw a less than 40 lb dog by hondo black out of a 65lb bitch.

Such a true statement , I had a big 27ins dog from lucky stuff and 24 ins scruffy collie type bitch who did all I ever asked for and more to the point suited my hunting and were absolutely no trouble to kennel , to deal with

 

Lovely natures, good workers and weren't too bad to look at either

 

But I always thought next year, or maybe someone will have something else to use or I'm too busy

 

It's only now I know I didn't realise what I had, I knew both their parents, their lines , their strengths

 

Only last week , a lad said to me I was a moron for not breeding them as they were as good as anything he'd ever seen together

 

Now I'm left with nothing from a decade of owning my two best dogs

 

Food for thought, but dont worry too much about what other people have or what their dogs are doing , chances are there thinking the same about you
