Na no ones gone mad people have just moved on I recon people tend not to stick to standard crosses no more they like to mix it up a little an get creative I’m a beddy x fan my self but still recon to this day a bull/greyhound x saluki/greyhound takes some beating as a lampers choice of dog for all. Tbh I quite like listening to the saluki talk even though I’d never own a saluki greyhound there not for me but fully get why people are running them as there choice

Think that’s part of it and also why go first x now when there are decent bull blooded lurchers about doing the job at hand.

I'd sooner have a dog with a splash of bull in From a couple generations ago than a bull x with fresh blood in that's not up to it. I need to get some straws off my old saluki bull grey dog before he croaks. Trev on here bred the father to it he was half x to saluki grey the best allrounder I've ever seen then he got put to a saluki x and every pup out of the first and second litter to the same dam made the grade taking everything in front of them. Sadly there's only my big dog and a bitch out of the repeat mating left.

Few about still. I like em and enjoy conditioning them. Will have another soon but i dont like them too tall myself prefer smaller stronger types. Had this dog from a pup but sent him back to his breeder after he had some bad luck really enjoyed having him about.

I know there's still a few about but the lads I know with em wouldn't use em over a running dog they keep the circles tight and there's the divvys that you wouldn't let use a dog the types that would throw a black lab over a greyhound and even talk themselves into believing it's a bull x

I was talking about half crosses feller.

Frigg me if you could only get hold of a lurcher with oldschool bloodlines with a bit of pit thrown in how mutch would it be worth now

Can't beat a decent half x I've had a couple 2nd gens they're weren't the best on big open field runs but of the slip they were like bullets hit stuff at 100 mile an hour my 1 bitch killed a few foxes before they'd even got chance to move off

No doubt most are bred out of shit same as any breed but Definitely still the right bull blood around

I don’t know how many pups that first cross bitch had over the years but I put a deerhound x greyhound over her, saluki x greyhound, a deerhound x bull greyhound, a ridge back x bull greyhound and a first cross bull greyhound and all the pups made handy dogs

I was asked if I'd let a proper ,battle dog out over my greyhound bitch only last month,I refused as I've no interest in rearing a litter I'd have no use for myself,this dog is a multiple time winner in the box,the bloke guaranteed me decent money for pups from his mates but I think I've enough to be getting on with rather than rearing 1/2 cross pits
