chartpolski 28,211 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 Just asking for a general opinion; I have a bitch, coming up six year old, Sire; 1st cross Beddy/Grey... Dam Deer/Grey x Whippet/Grey. Good all rounder, taken just about everything day and night. Good rough coat, good feet, stands 23". She's fast and has good wind. If I was to have her lined, I'd want all her attributes, plus a bit more hieght in the pups, I have in mind what I'd put her to, but would be interested to hear others opinions. Cheers.

toby1066 413 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 if it was my bitch id look for the dog thats producing the best pups a stud is only as good as what he leaves behind if you have seen him work thats a bonus so you know you have a chance of getting what it says on the tin Quote Link to post
Simoman 110 Posted March 23, 2011 Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 If she were mine i'd be looking a dog with similar attributes rather than a specific cross........ Quote Link to post

I probably won't mate her; I've never bred a litter in almost 45 years of owning running dogs, BUT.. If I was to, I wouldn't introduce another breed into the line; so would probably go against the current THL line of thinking and use a top class Greyhound, or a 1/4 beddy 3/4 grey or a 1/4 Deer 3/4 Grey !

chartpolski 28,211 Posted March 23, 2011 Author Report Share Posted March 23, 2011 brede down grew overy it fella Yes mate, there are some tremendous Grews around ! I go to the Whippet Racing most weekends and some of these Non-Ped Whippet x Greyhounds are unbelievably fast ! But the bitch is fast enough, and I'd just want to keep the speed but increase the size of the pups if possible ! Cheers. Quote Link to post

Cheers. great minds think alike eh! i think you should definitly break the mould and breed off her, and send a pup over this way and we could compare notes on how they gettin on!!! on a serious note a good 3/4 breed beddy or deerhound grey should in my opinion bring up your height and keep the same charcteristics..... should be lovely pups if they come anything like the mother, atb.
