tatsblisters 11,080 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 Genuine question . . . Has anyone actually had a sal/bul/grey that was a 'proper' fox dog and also coursed hares to a high standard regularly? The bull xgrey x saluki/greyhound owned by ireish bob called rambo was run in matches and i belive its litter mates were good on fox. Quote Link to post

nothernlite 18,260 Posted November 26, 2013 Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 no one dog for them all if it was legal and as far a height why do you need a big dog for a all rounder at the end of the day rats and rabbits is all you can hunt Quote Link to post

andy97 209 Posted November 26, 2013 Author Report Share Posted November 26, 2013 would a 3 year old dog doing the buisness be too old to buy in or not or would be better a 15month old also working same dog Quote Link to post
