Dogs on the up

[fordie 8]

What lurchers or purebreds do you lot think are on the up I think the Whippets are their increasing popularity for rabbiting I never had one seen them in the field I find them to open up on quarry but they are a good little working dog in their own right for me it their opening up on quarry that puts me off them I like the Whippet cross

O.K. Let me be the first to bite ! LOL ! I've had five Whippets and not one of them opened up when running quarry ! My mate Mally has, in my oppinion, the best working, KC Whippet I've seen, and I've never heard a squeek out of it, day or night. Running dogs open up for one reason only.... being overmatched and frustrated !!

 

Cheers.
