gamerooster 1,179 Posted June 17, 2017 Report Share Posted June 17, 2017 Can't see a half cross dog doing anything a 3/4 grey can't, though I know a 3/4 grey would be more consistent on certain things Quote Link to post
Aussie Whip 4,105 Posted June 18, 2017 Report Share Posted June 18, 2017 They often put greys back over aust stags (deer greys) cause they lack top end speed,but I think its because the old stag blood has been diluted with other slower breeds.I personally wouldn't want anything more than 3/4 grey or I think there feet,coat and bush sense would suffer. 2 Quote Link to post
Red Center 165 Posted June 18, 2017 Report Share Posted June 18, 2017 Love the deer/grey cross, he's a fine stamp of an animal They often put greys back over aust stags (deer greys) cause they lack top end speed,but I think its because the old stag blood has been diluted with other slower breeds.I personally wouldn't want anything more than 3/4 grey or I think there feet,coat and bush sense would suffer. Lot of the stags have gone to shit due to poor breeding. Blokes just breeding cause they can and not worried about the quality of dogs they're using. Not necessarily because of cross breeding although there is plenty of that too. Get a stag from the right person and they'll keep up with a grey and then keep going when it breaks down 2 Quote Link to post
Tratante 92 Posted June 18, 2017 Report Share Posted June 18, 2017 Last time I saw a dog like that was at Lambourne around 1978. Great dogs for large prey like deer but that's not allowed now is it! Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Pro 1 Quote Link to post
