Malt 379 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 I'd just try to find a pup bred from parents which are doing the type of thing you want to do rather than concentrating on a specific mix of breeds. Good luck with your search. Quote Link to post

rolysmate 49 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 looking at bedlington whippet crosses you could be anywhere from 16" upwards, as has been suggested think about what your hunting and the type of hunting your going to be doing including terrain etc then look for a dog thats going to do it for you Quote Link to post
samstorm 34 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 (edited) 22" to 27"? pretty much most crosses then? Edited September 30, 2011 by samstorm Quote Link to post
HAMMERDAN 25 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 Beddy/whippet over a greyhound mate, or beddy/whip x collie/grey.. Wont go far wrong. Quote Link to post
donkdaniel 236 Posted September 30, 2011 Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 As suggested already mate you need to specify what you want to hunt and the type of land and size of fields etc then people could tel you without that people will just say a cross because thay like the cross atb chris Quote Link to post
KieHound 0 Posted September 30, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 30, 2011 Sound lads much apreciated N i mainly want the bunnies & the lands about 3footy pitches Quote Link to post
lifelong cumbrian 1,829 Posted October 1, 2011 Report Share Posted October 1, 2011 Do you not fancy a well bred coursing whippet, you will get the speed plus will keep the size down. A dog could be up to 22" a bitch around 20". I have a beddy/whippet, it is a great little dog but as already been said it is pot luck how big they will turn out. The pure whippet route gives you the guarntee of size plus will have the sharpness for short courses. Quote Link to post
