can't agree with you more their hunter 17 cracking x got 2 myself atb rich

what breeding are yours rich?How old/tall are they iv heard a bit about this cross they seem to be a handy cross,some say size is an issue do you find it is?atb JB

Is there not many using this cross?A friend of mine has one,for its age its doing things you wouldn't expect of a dog its age.I'm not talking killing or catching prey(still only a pup)but inteligence and confidence in abundance,if its hunting capabilities come to the fore aswell then this dog should make the next 6-12 months very interesting!

What sort of height you hoping from the pups?Endgame the few whippets i've seen have all been game dogs,like most breeds i think if they've got it they've got it.atb JB

crikey not enough bone, bone has nothing to do it, a few people have seen this dog take fox also have a 16.5" bitch that takes them as well, its nothing to do with bone, its all about heart

I think that Gem(on the cover of edrd)looks like a power-house of a bitch,imo i think thats how we'd all want them to look like if we owned one

[buckeroo 2]

Whats the chances of buying one of j powells bull/whippets when he breeds them?Or are they bred to order my mate as a b/w not one of powells,but what i've seen of this breed has really impressed me.Fully agree with you johnny boy that dog on the cover is a GEM...excuse the pun
