Bull greyhound xwhippet says it all don’t it no fox specialist is going to add whippet to a strain of fox dogs if anything it’d be back to other bull greyhound or Wheaton xs there not going to go add whippet if there interested in foxing Lurchers honestly 

Think you need to get out more with people who have these little types of dogs,my mate had a little bull whippet that was calm as a cucumber around other dogs but a pure twat on fox and other stuff.He always said don’t trust that dog as it’s unpredictable.hence why I don’t believe most of the bollox on here as some haven’t seen what they say they have

I’m not saying whippet xs aren’t handy but a 3/4 grey 1/4 bull fast over hundred yards

Got a little dog that has taken alot of foxes but by no means a specialist fox dog and tbh took alot more time to finish his quarry then say a bull x however his son was a fox only dog and was a hell of a dog on them catch them for fun and dispatched them very quick one was 21tts and other 22tts.

Ties up quarry quicker just need one burst rabbit or fox lol turn a foot good mouth nobody tell me a little dog faster off start then a big dog lol  

of course a small dog is quicker off the mark, takes less time for them to get into their stride

think that depends on the job in question personally; rabbiting ,yes but most other stuff id rather a good big one for being able to use more regular and being more efficient

Recon a decent medium will do as well as both lol.

I’m educated enough on whippets an out an out foxing dogs mate my working dog career started out with them then moved on ive not said a small dog can’t do em I’ve seen an owned small dogs that could kill them but they weren’t fox dogs.my comment is still the same why would any man that keeps killing dogs want to add a straight whippet that’s not a killing dog in hopes of producing a killing dog a smart killing dog that’s a specialist knows how to run catch an kill fast. If my comment is wrong there’s a lot of foxing lads with the wrong bred dogs for there needs out there...just my opinion it could be wrong could be right who knows but what I see is not many killing dogs that went to straight whippet

From what I’ve seen from these bullxs to straight greyhound or whippet they have all done the same but the only difference I have seen is for big game.The only read this bull greyhounds were bred for was 3 things as we all know.The smaller one was for 2 things that’s the only reason.

Whippet blood can put a lot into the mix and I've seen whippets take fox no problem and I'm not saying they out and out fox dogs just couple I see had a thing for them so putting right kind of whippet over a bull grey should make a good juckel ,

But there's alot of difference between a fox a week and 3/4 a night 3/4 times a week. A half whippet would take too much stick in a night to be out the next night and certainly wouldn't be able to do it week in week out. They havent got the power imo and wouldnt add anything to a fox dog
