if possible get out with the parents and see if there doin the business your more likely to get a good pup out of good working stock. and remember you only get out what you put into a dog doesnt matter what cross! hope you find the right

A combination of collie grey or whippet ,with maybe a touch ofBeddie ,if Rabbits is you intended game,I dont think Deerhound will give you anything but size and speed ,,and if you arent going for anything "big " you wont need it.I would aim at a dog around23 to 24 1/2 ,with a broken coat for preference as many whippet crosses suffer from thin skin and the cold.Collie will give you biddability,the whippet quick acceleration ,the beddie a bi9t of coat.There are many good dogs above and below my sizes ,but I would say for rabbits,anything over241/2 isnt needed.Good Luck!

Whippetxgrey is good all rounder. The deerhound may make it too big for rabbits. Bullx is good all rounder in my opinion.

Hi mate I dont think tou would go far wrong with one of David Hancocks dogs 1/4 collie x 3/4 grey , there hardy , intelligent,and fairly easy to train for daytime or lamp best to go and have a look he,s based in Sutton Cold Field you,ll find his number in (dare I say it) The C********s Weekly you can find it with the rest of the toilet paper in any supermarket or in WH,Smiths , Good luck hope you find the dog you want.

what you would find is that you would have to put a lot of time and effort in to get these dogs upto scratch he hasnt worked them for years but they are striking looking dogs,and you get what the ads say, and yes im talking from experience as long as you go in with your eyes open knowing what you are buying.better of sticking to someone who is working this strain a collie/grey is about the best rabbit/ferreting dog you can get but you get out what you put in.
