YOU STUPID "BOY" lol

What is your preferred type of lurcher wk? I'm not saying collie x's don't stalk or pick their runs, but I'v seen practically every type/cross do the same, and like you've said, most of those were down to lack of fitness, and the owners giving them unrealistic slips/runs.Also, I have to say I've personally seen no genuine collie x pick it's runs, most of them being as keen as any other type for run after run I honestly ain't got a preferred type, Iv had few different types over years and made a dog I was happy with out of most. Iv said it before, I'v never fancied the same type again when ne

Backward cnuts!!! Said it before, but some of the most deluded, tree hugging, save the whale etc morons that rescue greyhounds and lurchers, are of the type you've just mentioned, and are horrified that the type of dog they've 'rescued' actually wants to run and kill other animals! Lol. The world's gone FAAACKIN MAD!! Lol

Looks an interesting pairing, how's the bitch bred and what height are they both?

My views are probably very similar to yours trench. Estate I worked on years ago had a collie/gsd bitch that worked as well, though not quite as obediently, as the two lab bitches the keeper kept as well. And a couple of dogs we used to wander the countryside as kids, which were supposedly just collies lol, were always up for a day, or few, far more freedom as youngsters for all of us back then lol, of hunting, wandering and generally messing about and up to allsorts. Looking back, I sometimes think 'bruno, sam, sally etc, put to a greyhound would throw some cracking pups'.

.177 or .22? Lol

Agree with this. Lots of lads keep whippets and never feel the need to get a bigger dog. They are pretty laid back and the ones I've been around have been pretty obedient. Probably never gonna be a world beater but probably the best of the bunch for someone new to dogs. Thing is gaz, nobody really needs a world beater, and whippets do very well at most things anyway. I love em You're right they don't, I certainly don't, but you wouldn't get a whippet for big lamping shifts on all types of quarry on all types of ground. That's what I was getting at. I like whippets too mate.

Not my cup of tea, and I certainly wouldn't entertain the thought of buying one, but I've seen more than a few litters of saluki/grey x wheaten/grey, and in the last 7 or 8 years. Not alot of difference really. But as with alot of x's, you're either going to like them and get on with them, or they're going to cause you a lot of grief, trouble and misery. Oh yeah, 'boys and girls?!' FAAAACK OOOORFF!! Lol

Will probably make ideal pot fillers, 'in the right hands'. . Lol

He's just on 11 months now, so hopefully not much growing left. He's just on 11 months now, so hopefully not much growing left. No he'll just fill out 40 KG = 88lb, and yep, should just mature from now on and prob lose a little weight whilst filling out

That mongolia?

That a rough coated 'whippet' he's got there? Cracking thread this

That staff obviously wasn't dead game lol

Strange that eh? Almost every standard poodle I've seen has been very aggressive, far more than many other 'supposed' aggressive breeds. Mind you, saying that, I suppose in the dog you're on about, the agression could've come from the greyhound, who knows? Just musing to myself really lol Next time you see an aggressive Poodle let it see something aggressive and then make up your mind whether they're worthy of breeding workers from. Someone was on here a few years ago boasting about the great poodle crosses he was going to shut up everyone with. He must have immigrated because he never

Just musing to myself really lol my sister had a pure standard poodle, and that was sharp with people, a bloke who kept a pub, had 2 males and both were very good guard dogs, i think it comes from the s/p temp being nasty, and there a fair size dog to get bitten from. most greyhounds have nice temps in general Yeah I know

Well said that man .. +1

And just to add these shits will wonder up and down at their will the farmer dare not confront them through fear of threats of burnt out barns,house etc and I can guess what cross(sooper dooper cross smash every thing) these shits use,and no one can tell me any other wise I'm dying to reply positively to this, but I think you are correct, so I shan't! Lol

This old whippet is 14, has caught more rabbits & hares than I can remember he may not kill the foxes but kept them busy till the bruisers get there, when he was younger https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zh6fwStgtZU Enjoyed watching some of those clips, will watch a bit more when I got the chance

I have to say, that of the people on here that bemoan whippets, and whippet crosses, that they must've seen whippets and whippet crosses that were bred from piss poor whippets. Seriously, practically all the whippets I saw, or owned, almost none of them opened up. And the ones that did, pure or crossed, were entered too soon. Give a dog a chance to mature, many many people on here would be surprised.

Would that hedgehog be a nimble 'hog' or a '90 yard flyer'? Lol
