That’s all I’ve ever had for foxes, Wheaton or bull crosses and don’t know anyone that use anything else, remember reading an article in edrd in the nineties about a fella using 1st crosses for fox and to be honest they looked the business so I had to have one, bought one out of England threw a friend that was supposed to be doing the job that turned out to be useless on fox, seen a couple more threw out the years but none were much to write home about, I’m sure decent animals are out there it’s just I’ve never seen them and that’s why I’d like to hear people’s thoughts on them. By the way the picture in edrd was of a lovely be strong broken coated dog standing on a bracken bank if anyone remembers it.

i used to read about   spud   1x beddy x grey    that Garry   thing a bob   forgot his last name  ,  well it was long time ago , lol . well he did  say how good he did his job on foxes solo  no prob.But i think he did say that apbt x greys  were getting popular , and he could see why , they kill quick  very powerful with strong jaws, and take pain  like no other lurcher  back then, so suppose times moved on with dogs for jobs, and ive always said  that the best fox killer i ever saw was Tug 1x staff x grey , he kill them dead quick  , like feckin rat lol   , it was seeing him that these type dogs take it to another level , the wheatenxs another good lurcher , but from what heard bit to sharp with other dogs , but never had one ,only bullxs mine were good with other dogs no prob  . But a well bred 1x beddy x grey  still good lurcher do most stuff, get the right one you got a very  good dog .
