jonnie 0 Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 With such interest these days in the bull crosses for all sorts of work I wonder just how many lads would consider this cross now. You would have enough size, around 24"tts.Speed a plenty,and ability. Interested in your thoughts. Quote Link to post

Guest DogFaceKillah Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 i know of an excellent beddy cross called rocky, owned by a guy who used to sort the diggin on the estate i worked on, one of the best dogs ive ever seen, good alround dog! does [NO TEXT TALK] know of rocky owned by DW?

Guest greengrass123 Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 It seems to be fashioanable these days to knock this cross ive owned them and can tell you they are excellent lurchers. Good ferreting dogs and more than capable on the lamp. By the way i wouldnt consider a dog of 24ats as small. Quote Link to post
markw 0 Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 The best lurcher I ever saw (sadly not mine), on everything, was that way bred. I gave up trying to get one, and could never have hoped to get one as good anyway. Over the years I've seen trends come and go, perhaps there'll be a resurgence of this type. Quote Link to post
Guest DogFaceKillah Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 does anyone know of the beddy cross ROCKY? from rochdale? this dog inspired me to get a lurcher, fell in love with the animal Quote Link to post
ianm 2,594 Posted March 26, 2008 Report Share Posted March 26, 2008 Good all round lurchers i,ve had several over the years and they are still one of my favourite crosses. Quote Link to post

If i had a first cross i would go to something with speed ie: whippet/greyhound or 3/4 greyhound 1/4 saluki or a good greyhound and i reckon the pups would be excellant all rounders.

kvnmcwebn 0 Posted March 27, 2008 Report Share Posted March 27, 2008 (edited) does anyone know of the beddy cross ROCKY? from rochdale? this dog inspired me to get a lurcher, fell in love with the animal I think there are pics of that dogs decendants on the working beddlington site. Incredible looking dogs. Edited March 27, 2008 by kvnmcwebn Quote Link to post
Royston2 0 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 the cross i mentioned wouldn`t lack speed determination would make up for the slight loss of not putting a grew or something similar on her........The last litter was a 3/4 whippet 1/4 grey over my first cross very smart pups too too small........

smarty 0 Posted March 28, 2008 Report Share Posted March 28, 2008 saw an advert for a 7/8 beddy 1/8 whippet . sire 3/4 beddy 1/4 whippet dam bedlington . i was interested as rabbiting terrier wise is my thing but i thought a extra bit of pace may not be a bad thing in the make up of the dog any experience with 7/8 crosses or more importantly this specific cross ? just worried about change in size structure ect Quote Link to post
