There a bit more athletic than a greyhound so hopefully the pups would be a bit less cloddy I don’t own a coursing type mate & it’s finding someone to lend you a bitch to breed off mate but if someone offered me 1 I’d jump at the chance mate atb cbx 1 Quote Link to post

No mate it's not. I'm sure they'd all work in some forms. I'd just personally keep it how it has been instead of reinventing the wheel. A dog's a long commitment and trying something new can be a pain. Atb Sam Quote Link to post
