Cracking pup, will look forward to you putting clips up of this working, good luck ?
-
Guys got some balls, f**k that!
-
You got one that you prefer or stands out more than the others?
-
Seemed to have all settled in well mate, keeping you busy ?
-
Nice litter that is, they won’t be about long. Any pics of sire and dam?
-
Nice litter mate hope they go to tidy home, it a breed I’ll be trying in the future possibly in lurcher form ?
-
Yeah I’ve seen other crosses than beddy cross whippet work, main reason I wouldn’t choose beddy whippet now is the quality of tested beddys ain’t about. Plenty of grafted bulls russells and pats about. Also I wouldn’t be using this type of cross in the same way as you would a big lurcher, they’d be used for ratting bushing ferreting etc, more of a fast buster that you could use as a dog that could do dual rolls if you like. I wouldn’t particularly class it as a lurcher as such
-
Also it seems like there is becoming a shift in people’s attitudes to small terrier bred lurchers, the beddy whippet would be a few places down on my list if I wanted a whippet terrier cross. Russell pat or bull whippet from the right stuff would be my choice
-
Exactly right mate, it’s not all about running in a field people breed lurchers to do dozens of different jobs on all types of quarry and terrain. That’s the beauty of breeding types
-
What’s the black lurcher type? Nice looking animal that is ?
-
purebred whippets on the cotswolds

For a beginner you can’t fault a whippet for a first type mad keen but easy to handle and no bother, I think same thing with them pups that Ken bred, they’d be an excellent type for a young keen hunter -
Learning the sites and sounds .......

Coming on really well, nice smart pups -
Nice to know as I run a bedding greyhound at the moment, he’s 8 and has been easy to handle no trouble at all, I’m hoping to go down the acd cross road myself in the near future
-
Possibly more to the story?
-
Lovely idea ?
-
Looks like she’s maturing well mate, how would you compare her so far against the beddys? really looking forward to hearing how she does this season ?
-
Brilliant mate what a great simple way to live ??
-
Very brave girl fair play to her, could have gone very wrong for her very quickly though
-
Retrieve training coming on a treat for such a young dog.
Night Walker replied to socks's topic in Lurchers & Running Dogs
If the pups turn out well do you think you would do a repeat mating or something similar In the future Ken? -
Nice spot to get away from it all ??
-
“White men cant jump!” ?
-
You got a cracking family of bushers about you now mate, going to have a lot of sport with them. Will pay you a visit at some point ??
-
If it was to be a line I’d e starting with a few unrelated whippets and greyhounds and go from there, get stock out there grafting then put the best to the best and continue on like that. Not really worth it though as your going to get what’s needed from the first cross anyway. Half cross, 3/4 greyhound and 1/4 whippet and 3/4 whippet 1/4 greyhound would be all you would need to breed. Not a line just types, very handy types
-
Man could talk a glass eye to sleep. Nice enough fella though
-
Be interested to know more about the whippet blood your going to use, can you tell us a bit about that?
