Marvel 469 Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 Can anybody on this site vouch for you? if your looking to sell spare pups you'll need to put a wee bit more info about the parents, to answer your question they make cracking dogs if bred properly. Quote Link to post
budgie123 163 Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 Both dogs pictured are 1st crosses 22 inch to the shoulder and are good rabbiting dogs. Do you have a picture of the Bedlington used or any information about its breeding. Is it a genuine pure Bedlington. 5 Quote Link to post

MickC 1,825 Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 (edited) I had one early 90s and it was a monster,do numbers of fox no bother and took everything else. No matter how crap the night he was one of those dogs that would always get something. Whatever was at the end of the beam he was having it.One of those once in a lifetime dogs,I bred him a few times but he never threw anything like himself unfortunately . I would think the hard part now is finding a pure Bedlington from proper working stuff to breed from Edited February 9, 2020 by MickC 6 Quote Link to post

budgie123 163 Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 They are both dogs I have had another dog and my mate has had 2 and they were all round 22 inches. Good luck with your breeding it sounds like you will be onto a winner with the Bedlington. The litters I have seen have all been very even with bitches just slightly smaller but like peas in a pod. There was another post just search Bedlington greyhound which got a lot of response an information not too long ago. 1 1 Quote Link to post

poxon 5,741 Posted February 9, 2020 Report Share Posted February 9, 2020 Bitches can be from 19tts -21 dogs normally 20-22tts depending on bedlington used second cross tend to produce bigger offspring the problem is with the bedlingtons is most are not worked as such there more just owned as a novelty without being seriously worked most people in to bedlingtons breed to names in the lines an use names of old legends as the sales pitch not many bedlingtons have a good coat there few an far between an are up an Down in size from 14tts up to 19tts some even 20tts but f1s are in demand any one producing f1s they will sell! But good ones are even harder to come by that’s why not many bedlington greyhound hardly ever make a name for there selfs as good like other crosses. I love beddy greyhounds there my favourite x a good un takes some beating in my eyes but I’d rather someone else take a risk with a f1 than my self with one id rather just use f1s to add base blood to another working type but finding a good one is almost as hard as finding a litter of f1s hope your bitch takes fella Be nice to know there could be some future hopefuls out there 1 1 Quote Link to post
