Mars 42 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 has any one ever ran a alsation x bull x whippet? or how do you think this cross would manage for a rabbit and hare dog Have you got one then ??? If so put some pics up, I would`nt think they would be three breeds that most people would think of mixing together, in that order to make a lurcher But hey !!! different strokes for different folks, Yis Mars...

jakk 6 Posted November 13, 2008 Author Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 (edited) i haven't, i've been thinking about it very seriously though it would have to be 1/4 alsation 1/4 bull and 1/2 whippet though and i'm aware its quite unusual but i think it could work Edited November 13, 2008 by jakk Quote Link to post
bird 9,969 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 If you use a G.S.D in a lurcher x, i would make sure they have good hip score for [ H.D] i think MAL, would be a better , more agile and better hips.??? down side a MAL can be a bit sharp,? Quote Link to post

lamping-lad 160 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 why do you think this cross will make a good lurcher mate? Quote Link to post
Little Butch 16 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Surely you'd be better off using a Greyhound rather than a Whippet? Butch Quote Link to post
stealthy1 3,964 Posted November 13, 2008 Report Share Posted November 13, 2008 Try the cross and see, you may just start a revolution. Quote Link to post

Personally If I had the room, and more importantly my wife would allow me I would like a dog of this breeding, I have a couple of GSD's, a nine year old dog 70lb, haemophilia clear and with a hip score of 2:2, this dog has great drive and has qualified in working trials. I also own his son, a 65lb four year old dog and I would like to see either of these put over a quality greyhound bitch. Both these dogs are from imported Schutzhund lines and I would only use dogs from these working lines and not the show/pet rubbish that falls apart at the dge of five. Perhaps If I win the lottery...................no perhaps if I start doing the lottery Quote Link to post

Hi, I think the rescue centre do an admirable job, please don't think I'm knocking them, merely pointing out that a dog that is unsafe around kids is a timebomb Quote Link to post
