    Here's Flynn, (sire to my bitch Delta). He's a 1st cross Beddy/Grey from Heartbreak Fell Kennels. I'm sure his owner, Pat, Won't mind me showing him, as I think he's a top class dog, who has thrown top class pups !! Cheers.

    Now that head looks familiar Doesn't it !! I was at Birr Game Fair last year with this pup, (a 1st cross), and a guy came up to me and said "that's a Doxhope bred bitch!", I asked him how he knew that, and he said "look at the head !" !! Cheers.

    What do you mean "Whippet x Hound" ? Is it Whippetx Greyhound, (Grew), or Whippet x some other type of hound ? Cheers.

    Just look at footballers mate; it's one of the worst injuries they can get ! They are sent to the best surgeons and no expense spared, but some of them never make it back to their best. I'm not trying to put a downer on your situation, just telling it like it is.... Hope the dog isn't as seriously injured as it seems, and makes a full recovery, some do !! Cheers.

    Good As Gold's "pedigree" ! Note the Greyhound Sire to the Whippet Dam in the line... http://www.k9community.co.uk/cgi-bin/nonped/geneal.pl?op=tree&index=50&gens=5&db=nonped.dbw Cheers.

    Good As Gold was probably the greatest yds/lb DOG ever !! Bitches usualy won the run of for Supreme Champion, but I'm sure he won a few !! And once again, he had the best of the Whippets, Bilko, on his sires side and Greyhound on his dams side ! Another Grew that was tremendous ! Cheers.

    Bob, I had a pup out "Flossey", (Rch Yorkie Boy X Greyhound) By Rch Haymaker; looked like she would make the grade at yds per lb, but I had to go away , and she went to a handicap racer. She won a lot, but didn't live up to her potential. Her mother, Flossey, was one of the best 30/32 lb'ers I ever seen, but she allways came up against Rch Devils Angel, Which was of course one of the best 32lb'ers ever !! Another Yorkie Boy X Greyhound !! Cheers.

    Stunning dogs, had one in the 70's, but things move on and the Bull and saluki x proved superior in the field at there respective jobs So would you say that Bull and Saluki X's prooved superior to Deerhound X's at Roe, especialy daytime...... Pre Ban, of course ! Cheers.

    I know they were, there just seems to be alot of interest in them. I'm not knocking them, just wanting to know why the sudden rush of deerhound posts? And I'm not knocking Bull or Saluki X;s; Never had a Bull X, but have seen some good 'uns ! I've had pure and X Salukis, some good, some not so good ! LOL! But breeds come into fashion and out of fashion to some folk ! But some people just keep to the cross they know and trust; be it Collie X, Deer X, or whatever,. Don't go with the new fad..... stick with what does the job for you Cheers.

    Why not ? They were used in Lurcher breeding long before the Bull X's and Saluki hybrids came allong ; Cheers.

    Daisy was my favoutite of all time; she was a freak, a phenonemon ! Front end like a Whippet, back end like a Greyhound ! Her litter mates were all top class; Robbo, Zoey, etc. I saw her kill the only hare I think she was ever slipped on, and saw her win countless scratch races, under 21" and no limit. She was Whippet/Grey; Bilko x Frozen Kill. There are dogs doing faster times now, but not dominating and winning in such style as she did ! Oh ! The good old days !! LOL !! Cheers.

    Hi mate, I made lots of copies and handed them out to people who were around at the time,(1972 I think). I still see some of the people who were on that film, and the lad that had Sally is now into horses and still keeps a Beddy/Whippet around his stables. Sally was only around 26lb and had pleanty Collie in her and could catch a hare, and as he says on the film, she did 8.70's for 150yds, not a bad time for what was essentialy a Lurcher, back then !! I've been to Westerhope Whippets this morning, and will be at the Rising Sun tomorrow, but it's nothing like back then !! Cheers. Cheers

    As others have said; if you have permission, call the police and give them all the relevant information, especialy your reg number, where you are going and at what time. Make sure you get an incident number, and if you get pulled, this is all you need to give them ! Cheers.

    Try reading the whole thread, and you'll see "one of these dogs" with a Roe Cheers.

    One of the greatest brood bitches in the history of Non-Ped Whippet racing was a bitch called "Young Lucy"; she was mated to various sires; Biko, Blue Fawn and I think, Good as Gold. She threw many Racing Champions and some of the best Scratch Dogs ever ! She was variously described as being Collie/Grey, and Whippet x Collie/Grey; but one thing is certain; she had pleanty Collie in her !! I bought a pup from A. Pickup in 1972, by "Darly Fly" a Bilko dog, and out of "Susan", (Blue Fawn x Young Lucy). Apart from being a top class racer, he was also one of the best "Lurchers" I've had, until he m

    Lovely looking bitch ! And of course you know I'm not knocking them ! In fact, if you want to send a decent racer down to me for the summer, I'll give it the best racing and maybe a bit of mooching !! Cheers.

    Totally agree their different to the dogs i saw in the late 70s then again most of them were the result of ped whippets bred to greyhounds and still retained the peds stamina.atb dell Poach, that dogs pic with the roe I put up; that was in the late 60's and his litter varied from an 18lb bitch to a 50lb bitch !! He was around 36/40lb but looked like a perfect Whippet. He wasn't the fastest around, but on the day he got faster after every 150 yd race ! We used to walk to the tracks , over the many slagheaps that blotted the landscape then, and would course a hare before we got to the tra

    I tend to agree with you, Chalky; but the non-ped grews in the old days were much more "lurcher" bred, and were expected to be "multi functional"; race, course and do a bit ferreting. I still go to the Whippet racing, been there today, but the modern non-ped is bred for out and out speed, and with a few exceptions, would not stand up to a days coursing or a nights lamping. Nothing wrong with that; I'm amazed at the times they do over 150 yds, I even bought a stopwatch to time them myself, as I couldn't believe how faster they were than in my day !! Cheers.

    This lad was sired by Blue Boy, out of Zarwood. He won pleanty of races, took any amount of hares, and had the odd Roe; this was long, LONG, before the ban, by the way ! LOL !; Cheers.
