It is easy to see and tell that you are all fans of the beddy cros and i do have to say rightly so they are the bussiness,however my ousin has got a whippet almost pure with a dash of stafford and i have never seen such a keen rabbiting dog bushing, ferreting yet to be proven on the lamp but i have no wories that she we will do te business. amazingly keen and a nose that will sniff a rabbit out in any cover.

Ahh the bull cross ?

Been a few cracking litters of collie/whippets about the last couple of years. 1st cross, 5/8 3/8ths and 3/4 breds. Couple of members on here with em too. Be just as much, if not more use and more versatile and trainable than a beddy cross. Depending on your aspirations and needs I suppose though. 

No offence to small beddy cross owners. But with lamping listed as a requirement, some of these beddy crosses can be HELL if they miss! Lol.

Should also point out, I know collie crosses, or any cross really, can also be hard work if not trained properly with recall etc, especially when lamping. But some of these beddy crosses have a very stubborn streak, which together with their superb nose, makes training a little more difficult

I know this type is 'your type' nl. But the dogs I've seen at work , daytime and lamping, of this type, have been great dogs in the day, but alot more than hard work at nigh, ie lamping.

But could well be the owners as much as the cross/type. Because obedience and 'working' with the pups wasn't at the top of their list lol
