Shadow100 1,066 Posted December 24, 2020 Report Share Posted December 24, 2020 2 hours ago, my hounds said: Heres my Cooklands bred first cross Deerhound/Greyhound,he was 10yrs last month just under 31tts which to me has not hampered him(watch Axel on Lurcher Mania) he has worked/works certain types of cover plus as a young dog up and at em(more so his litter sister) and and again to me what a length of stride.He has got very good feet most certainly from the deerhound side,his breeding is out of Trevors Deerhound "Boots" whose sire was Doxhope Knights Errant also Rohanis, Shenvil,Rosslyn lines are in there.On his Greyhound side called "Marys on Tour" in her lines are Honcho,Westmead and Sandman.So i feel theres good breeding there hence i have decided to have his semen tested and if alls well some frozen and stored in the next few weeks.Heres some photos one taken a few weeks ago plus one with his litter sister 27tts,atvb My hounds. Beautiful dogs, they’re not my usual thing but I reckon if a genuine 1st cross litter was on the ground I’d be very tempted Quote Link to post

Went over a wheaton bull bitch, I asked him to sell me a pup,would be nearly 2 yrs ago, but never heard back off him, then a good lad off here sorted me out my wheaton bull bitch 1 Quote Link to post

I seem to remember us back and forth with similar questions last year, about your bitch and another similarly bred litter! Lol Quote Link to post
