sean09 7 Posted March 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 The half cross dam is roughly 22"tts and sire is 28"tts and the 3/8 5/8 the dams around 25"tts and sire is 25"tts Quote Link to post
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 The 3/8 5/8 will probably throw 24-26. The half cross could throw small and stocky like the dam or big and racey like the sire. No guarantees it will throw bang in the middle. All the best. Quote Link to post
sean09 7 Posted March 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Cheers for your input pal, thats what im getting worried about now. Im used to saluki collie crosses so this cross is completely new to me and i like a good leggy dog 26"+ must see if i can find some magic beans Quote Link to post
bird 10,014 Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 being that there not over big breeds, grey the biggest, prob make 26in no more, plus most dogs get there height by 10 months old, the only others deerhounds danes etc, 15 month old. Quote Link to post
sean09 7 Posted March 28, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 Yeah pal i think il have to b happy with 25" but was looking for anyone to reply who has this cross... what do you have and what height have they made? Quote Link to post
flipbull 1,139 Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 (edited) I would guess at 23-25" your pup is probably going to have a big growth spurt between 6-7 1/2 months and then slow down after. But all dogs differ. I ain't got that coss though mate. hope you get what you want Edited March 28, 2016 by flipbull Quote Link to post
king 12,038 Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 My 7 month old half x bull grey is 25" so a bit more to go yet. 1 Quote Link to post
Somewhereyournot 1,117 Posted March 28, 2016 Report Share Posted March 28, 2016 I was once told in the knuckle you can feel a pea, and for every mm there's an inch of growth? how true that is I have no idea. My dog at 6.5momths old was 24.5tts and he grew another 2 inches. Quote Link to post
Moorside 642 Posted March 29, 2016 Report Share Posted March 29, 2016 You can get a good idea how they're gona end up by looking at the length of back theyve got. Quite rare for a long backed pup to end up less than 25" ish. Quote Link to post
