BRAN 0 Posted February 7, 2007 Report Share Posted February 7, 2007 Just wondering has anybody had much experience with genuine first crosses? Seen one years ago, a traveller owned it. Beautifu tri coloured wee thing, about 21 inches with a whippet frame and the saluki ears. tied hares up in no time. Dead of winter, afternoon ground got hard, every other dog that was out got busted up, except this little bitch. She levelled three, two solo, one doubled up, no end to this little bitch. Where the hare went it went, never seen one again. Talked to a few people, never heard much about wondered why? Seemed to me it it clicked would be hard to stick. Quote Link to post

Ive allways been interested in this cross but rarely come across it,I remember atrio of dogs of this breeding [all litter mates ]that ran in a coursing club ,based in Suffolk,they all had wind and agility ,were quite finely built and certainly not slow ,I might try this cross when next Im in the market for a pup.Inan.
