Smart pup mate all the best with it, I prefer my deerhound crosses to the saluki crosses I've had , it should make a decent all rounder for you

Excellent name choice

 

Daz, I've found the deer/grey crosses easier to train than the saluki crosses I've had and even though I like the saluki types I'll always have deerhound crosses in my kennels

I've always had a fancy for a deerhound cross, but the type of running I do suits the saluki Xs, but I've got a good 1 in the kennel the now so thought a wee change would be good, heard a few folk on here saying they take a while to mature?

nice pup that, not seen b/w deerhoundx before, is there anything else in there as well .?

With them being big boned they take longer to stop growing and mature later than other breeds

Bird, she's actually brindle and white because she's 2nd gen it'll be a through back from the greyhound,

 

Berb, aye mate reckoned that, what's your experience with them on the "larger rabbits"?

I ran mine on both brown and mountain hares and they did alright, I ran my old boy on the fens at my mates place as well which suited him more than some of our local small fields. Fantastic sight seeing a good deerhound cross on at full pelt on the back of a brown hare in big open spaces

Cheers mate, I'll keep you's posted on her progress, think I'm going to name her Gem.

in my opinion you have taken a step back, in your type of cross, the deerhound cross was very popular in the 60s and 70s I used to keep them, in that era, mostly 3/4grey 1/4 deerhound, and also mated into a good collie grey, bitch produced, a good type of coursing dog for R,H,D, they are a good looking dog with there broken coat or rough coat with beard an all, and of course you get a smooth coat as well, they can do there job well on ROE, But for me the saluki cross a good one that is, they can do it all,

strong running power,good feet, endless stamina, ((( with in reason)) quick recovery from a hard course, (((( they are a little more tempramental,than the deerhound cross, (((( everyman, to his choice of dog, ((( certainly not mine, NOT NOW ANYWAY,
