hi i been told if you breed your dogs to young they lose speed what do you people think about it does it make them lose speed or not ? and what do you people think about breeding a bull greyhound saluki greyhound to a pitbull do you people think they will be to strong and small for the big game ? thanks ants

I wouldn't know if a dog would lose speed but surely you wouldn't want to breed a young dog until it had been tested? Also I'm sure you mean staffy not pit as they are banned Just a thought but wouldn't a saluki/Greyhound x bull/greyhound be able to do it all anyway?

2 year old is far too young,its only had 1 season under its belt,and certainly not been worked hard enough to see if its good enough,if you need another dog,buy a pup,rather than burden the lurcherworld with another ill concieved litter,

good luck

Having a litter always takes a bit away but you may hardly notice it.If you dont mind me saying that bitch is still a pup and has not yet become what shes going to be. You should be working that dog this coming season every oppertunity. Test it to the full and see where it excels and where it lacks before you decide what to add to it and what you are prepared to lose from a cross.We had a dog recently which we thought was a world beater but when he was coming up to 31/2 he lost his bottle one night and didnt regain it.My only consolation was i hadnt used him at stud.

Dont forget the seasons just around the corner.
