irishnut 297 Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 what is the biggest size of dog able to pick up bunnys, and in the same weekend run a fox and pull down a deer. don't give 2 shits about hares, not many around here. what breed or x will do it consistently? planning on getting new dog in april. want big, over 26" to 30", good coat and reliable performer. don't like the very stocky look of big first x bull's or skinny saluki look. cheers Quote Link to post
BEARINATOR 2,924 Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 A decent bred deer/grey or deer/grey x collie/grey will take everything you want mate, I don't like the skinny saluki's either but my pup is a saluki cross Quote Link to post

Guest AngelicAcid Posted January 25, 2011 Report Share Posted January 25, 2011 why does a saluki X automatically have to be skinny? Ive seen a few shit house saluki greys that were ok dogs. I suppose youits what you put in to them as well like?????? Quote Link to post
