is there any need for this in a dog x

3/4 whippet pal

I thought so the first cross is a lot sharper and faster [bANNED TEXT] put to a whippet again

in days gone by serious, the collie dog was only was kept, for his/her working ability, IE, FARMWORK, AND THE MINERS, who loved a good whippet, probably, with a touch of greyhound running through the blood, and again,, they only mated the best to the best, to produce a good pup, and a pup in those days of that mix, would cost probably, 10shillings,= 50P, or a £1 at the most, there was 2 or 3 men that had that x were I come from and they swore by them, and 1 fellow had his trained to fetch eggs out of a Hen house, yes Lads when poachers made a living, from the Land, and the water, even in the 70s a very well bred pup cost £5 at the most. when you see a proper hill collie work and you will be amazed how fast that fellow can run, and then you put a racing whippet over that hill collie bitch,

they make ideal rabbit dogs, mainly used with the ferret, and fantastic for lifting the pheasant as well,

So would you say this collie whippet is too heavy for rabbits?

The collie adds brains, agility, stamina and the wippet adds speed and strike. imo
