chartpolski 23,863 Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 never ever seen a featherd half cross,and i was led to believe that they dont exist as the greyhound gene is to dominent in the half cross so that the feathering never comes through.never the less a nice looking dog The domenant Greyhound gene theory is surely blown away when a pure Deerhound or pure Bedlington is crossed with a Greyhound and the pups invariably range from broken to rough coated ?

mush 204 Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 deerhounds have a wire coat which is dominant over smooth and a first cross saluki x greyhound will always be smooth. Think there is three coat types if i remember right, long, smooth and wired. Quote Link to post
Ossie 11 Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 i told Ted Walsh's daughter about the smooth coat/first cross thing, she said she'd never heard that before. she dug out a photo that ted Took of a rough-coated brindle saluki x greyhound, we found a few more in his albums.

baldockbanks courser 598 Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 they sometimes make fair dogs but rearlie world beaters what iv seen. if it were that easy every 1 would breed em. iv never known of 1 thats a real big name.a lucky, captain, snowy ,jj, street acciedent etc. there was a very good bitch that killed hares everywere from baldock to the real hares on the black land beat TINA TURNER twice won other matchs wich i saw with my own eyes SALLY but they dont last long theres hundreds of hares on the bal banks at this very moment. mainlie because not that menie of em die very easilie. come on real hares on the black land youv got just as much chance finding a dud any where and a lot of dogs have got a job bending a baldock hare in the winter. a lot of dogs find a course up hill harder going than a paced race on the flat. talks cheap money buys houses!
