I’d be happy enough if i could find a whippet/grey that works that would suit me ideal. Then i’d line her no probs but hard enough trying to find one. Mostly track dogs, which isn’t a bad thing but a working one would be ideal. Will just look like a deer x grey but slightly smaller i’d of thought
Using the Bull x as the example here,Same applies for saluki X etc etc. But as someone else said previously on here it’s a long waiting game to get the exact breeding of a dog you want
I’ve never done a litter before. But a guy i know who’s had dogs for years which used to be mostly deer greys said to me that if am doing bull X over my bitch i’d be best starting off with a deer grey cross keeping a bitch back proving her then doing a Bull x down the line. As it’s a much better base for a lurcher line and will help down the line. As i said im a bit more new to it and never had a litter before
mine seems to be robust, she can take a knock quite well, can’t speak for greyhounds,My first deerhound broke his neck at 11 months when running though. The bitch i have now is completely different to him she has a bit more go about her.
Yes young and not done a whole lot. But for purebred deerhound and being 16 month i’m very happy with her. Was never bought to be just a worker she is a big pet, but want a lurcher with her as the dam . Hare rabbit n rats she’s done so far. Love deerhounds have had 3 so far, well aware other dogs out there that do the job a lot better
i always thought a nice racey 5/8 3/8 bull grey would of made good pups with my bitch, but a was put off by people saying could throw back a lot to the bull, and no gas tank aswell
Too much of a risk what the dog could throw to tho? I’ve been told it can throw to anything almost when u put more than one breed. Cause she’s a pure deer a thought be aswell doing straight grey, then cross again down the line
