Trying to work things out

Anyone in here running a dog bred half x bull grey to top coursing dog? What kind of height, weight, stamp etc?

Also anyone on here bred a litter same way and how much variation in the pups? Did many throw lighter and very saluki like?

Any photos would be good.

The litter off Haymin that me and John plus a few others is pretty much that mate..

mother BullxGrey (haymins bitch mist, you saw her at the comp in Wales

father sal/grey/whip (whins dog Rex)

i think johns is smallest in the litter, and Walshie's dog is massive 

my bitch is 25" and around 33kg... racy build and very quick.. she's doing ok so far mate

Beautiful animal...

You are so lucky,...I used to have dogs like that...sadly,..not anymore...

Looks a very smart bitch. 

Thing is I’m toying with the idea of breeding my bitch at some point, maybe a year off maybe two.

I like her a lot, but would like to add a bit more wind, improve her feet a bit and maybe a bit more too end. And would be happy if I ended up with a pup that made an inch or so bigger.

However, I really don’t want to lose her drive, hardness, strength, bone is etc and don’t want to end up with anything smaller or much lighter built, it wouldn’t suit for what I do with her.

Are you looking at breeding your white bull x mate?

perhaps look at one of the dogs out of this litter, they potentially could give you what you want, they're 3 in June so a few of them should've had some graft in a couple of years time to give you an idea..

just a thought mate..

[SheepChaser 8,089]

Yes that’s the one.

Not a bad thought using something like that, saluki/bull type back over the bull x.

Currently in my mind my options are - 

saluki/grey coursing dog

fast type collie/grey 

fast type bull/grey

If u don't want her to throw anything lighter than what she is use another bull cross a sbg would almost certainly produce a lighter frame but not necessarily lighter in weight and there stronger than you think

Came from a good line of bull x and the saluki side was a grandaughter to g dickinsons 'red'.
