Runner96 511 Posted December 28, 2022 Report Share Posted December 28, 2022 I would be up for letting some one use my little dog for stud. Decent rabbit dog. Works lamp well, and is spot on for my type of ferreting. 20”TTS, decent feet, can take a few knocks. Coming up 5 year old. Depends on what type you like I suppose. 12 Quote Link to post

It amazes me a lot who breed off this type seem to have the urge to go to a grew or whippet don't get me wrong some decent lurchers can be produced this way though i honestly believe a better all round type can be produced by going to another cross this is only my view on having owned and seen lurchers in the past where the bedlington x was bred to another lurcher type. 6 Quote Link to post
Chunky11 150 Posted December 30, 2022 Report Share Posted December 30, 2022 I have just lost my bed/grey x Grew. He was a brilliant rabbit dog but no good on anything else. His skin would rip at the sight of a bramble. I now have a bitch with Collie, greyhound, deerhound & American staghound in her. So far so good. Good luck finding the stud dog you want & I look forward to seeing the resulting pups. Quote Link to post

Thanks,she's turned out a honest type and she'll give anything a run and she's doing ok but I think something else in the mix definitely make a better all rounder 3 Quote Link to post

My mate has a cracking springer x whippet x grew bedlington that has stamina to burn and is easy to live with but is at a loss what to put over her if he breeds her. 1 Quote Link to post

I think nothernlite has it spot on mate ,a strong non ped is the way for rabbits.it's all right producing all rounders for other stuff but things aren't what they used to be.the good times of the past have gone ,do gooders have seen to that. but if you are young enough and brave enough who knows 1 Quote Link to post
