Deerhunter1 771 Posted October 26, 2023 Report Share Posted October 26, 2023 People always laugh when a greyhound or something similar is used over a bitch, but they’ll look at paying £500+ to use a stud dog that nobodies ever seen run as a safe bet, strange carry on. 2 Quote Link to post

TBH I have been guilty of being dead against adding pure grey blood in the past. I had this greyhound bitch on the yard for about 6 month before I decided to use her, she was exercised like a lurcher doing up to five mile behind the quad a few times a week, in the back of the 4x4 for nights out allowing her to get a mouthful of stuff. She settled and turned sensible after a few knocks, very obedient and a pleasure to have around. Her pups turned out fine apart from being a bit lighter boned than I am used to. 3 Quote Link to post

I wouldn’t because I don’t think it would do my current dogs any favours, but I wouldn’t be going & using any of these big name stud dogs either that get ran once a fortnight if they’re lucky Quote Link to post

saluki bouy 697 Posted October 26, 2023 Report Share Posted October 26, 2023 I made a mistake 15 years ago with my first proper dog I bred a litter with her to try breed out the faults with using the sire learnt lesson from that breed only best to best or if line bred plan properly also main lesson ….. cull she had 9 pups 2 bitches that’s all we wanted and we should have done the rest surplus and ended up god knows where I’d rather decide a dogs fate myself than know it was going merry go round Ive done it not happily but knew it was right thing with just about every terrier I’ve had not suitable for pet home and not suitable to work 2 Quote Link to post
saluki bouy 697 Posted October 26, 2023 Report Share Posted October 26, 2023 Going back to greyhound bad feet look outstanding because there up and at them and putting pressure on one lamping trip every two weeks line bred coursing dog I have now doesn’t have great feet but you can run him 2 times a week three times daytime on what he’s bred for new thing for me to be honest to actually think and take that into consideration but he’s mustard for what he’s bred for Quote Link to post
