Cannon 25 Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 Best i seen was a staffy x non ped whippet. Havent got a photo. Belonged to a friend of mine. God that dog was good. However the lad that had him had a lot of spare time on his hands which he spent with the dog and although the dog was keen as f@*k and had a good nose. It was amount of time that was spent on it that made it the dog what it was. Loads of people will say that their 1st dog or dog they had when they were younger were best dog they had (rarely realised at time) Usually when they didnt have responsibilitys or just didnt care 5 Quote Link to post
rob284 1,682 Posted June 12, 2018 Report Share Posted June 12, 2018 What does a first cross bull do better than a well bred racier lurcher or even a 1/4 bull? You don’t need half bull to run fox and deer consistently, something lighter will catch more and last longer, and any bigger game isn’t a lurchers job imo. They’re for a certain job, but there’s no comparison with a lighter dog if your running a variety of game. 3 Quote Link to post

You do know they can throw pretty racey animals? The thread is about posting pics of them, I've seen what they can do and a good one is some animal. Quote Link to post

If the half crosses were getting straight lined by a fox they were shite, I’ve seen a lot of half crosses run over the years and the only ones that got straight lined were the ones that didn’t want it. 1 Quote Link to post

I just can't see the logic in using a dog primarily for the show ring over the ultimate performance dog? Edited June 13, 2018 by Kerny92 Quote Link to post
