Wouldn't have a first cross  

first crosses are always true to type so you know exactly what your gonna be getting ? and they have a fair turn of spee, aswell as good feet ,also robust enough to take knocks in there stride ?

always told if there's smooth pups they not a first x bedy grey or whippet ?

i have never see smooth pups in a litter of first x ,but I see smooth in reverse 3quater bedy grey .

and folk buy for the coat alone are the ones destroying the bedy whippet .its a good thing there's not many breeding bedy greys as they deserve to be in hands of working folk not o look my dog all fluffy kind of people .

 

classic example of a genuine first x

mine is a unregistered working Bedlington to a non ped whippet. I suppose the purists might say not genuine because the beddy isn't kc. who cares she does the job I got her for that's all that matters. 

nice little beddy/whippet fred

Cheers NL always fancied the idea of bit terrier blood with the saluki I think it’s a good mix.

Bedy lurchers don't lack much if you get right one but a bit of sal will give the x more wind  ,

I know f1 bedlington greyhounds are meant to be unformed peas in a pod but there have been people who have said  had a smooth pop up in a litter but bet it comes back to the bedlington linkage it’s not hard to rig a out cross in kc bedlingtons but saying that modern day bedlingtons are not exactly as unformed as people believe there’s so many different type stamps An sizes.

with 3quarter bred it smooth an rough just like bedlington lurcher to lurcher 

tbh Im still struggling to get my head round the why with bedlington xs there’s such a fascination with the f1 if someone wants a bedlington x why it’s got to be a f1 or it’s not a bedlington x in the eyes of the purest I mean most of these f1s are bred out of none worker to a working terrier tongue in cheek to produce a working dog when none f1s are worker to proven worker I’m told mine are not bedlington xs because there not f1s but I’m ok with that I agree as mine are type bred bedlington xs

ps lovely looking dog by the way

to me your lurcher is bedlington x and I got a first x as I wanted to no what was in her ,she's doing me good so I'm happy ,as for looks it don't matter to me a good juck is a good juck no matter coat ,size ,breed etc .

and all my dogs got a touch of bedy in them ,

the stud dog neil bacon was using at his puppy farm was the worst example of a working Bedlington you could wish to see ? and I very much doubt it had anything of georges stuff in it whatsoever it was as wide as a bulldog ?

They is nothing with gn breeding left ,see lots pups up for sale rillington bred lol no 3q rillington blooded dogs about today never mind pure ,maybe trace back to gn stuff but very little rillington left unles there a secret kennel out there .

my uncul had gn dog yrs ago but border bedlington .

this if its smooth it's not a first cross is a myth. it's not uncommon in first crosses I have seen a few smooth ones. 

Maybe the parents not what they think they are ?

no the parents were genuine. dog genetics are a strange thing they do throw some surprises. not saying it happens in every litter but it does occur.
