trenchfoot 4,243 Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 get one with a decent jacket on it, some of 'em make whippets look like arctic warriors 1 Quote Link to post
Caravan Monster 323 Posted June 27, 2017 Report Share Posted June 27, 2017 get one with a decent jacket on it, some of 'em make whippets look like arctic warriors +1 no fat, very lean muscle and thin coat mine feels the cold. Might be ok with an older saluki x if it lived inside and was with the owner most of the day. Would be worried that an older dog might not get that bond with the owner they need living outside. Got mine as a 5 month old and she was an absolute fecker for the first year or so, but turned a corner and surprisingly obedient and willing to work with me now (with me more or less 24/7) Quote Link to post

low plains drifter 9,467 Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 A great x for most but some owners attitude/personality are to blame for the dogs failing. What type of attitude/personality is best for this cross? dour optimist Quote Link to post

Saluki71 110 Posted June 28, 2017 Report Share Posted June 28, 2017 A bad workman blames his or her tools, I've never had a problem with recall or obedience of Salukis or crossbreeds. Most Salukis go through a rebellious stage between eight-twelve months old and can Carry on until nearly two. A competent dog person would know this and then make allowances, sadly some people will never learn and keep bad mouthing certain crosses because they don't have the common sense or patience. If you are patient you can get the best from any dog, but more importantly is getting the right dog for the land you work, there's no point having a little whippet cross if you are running fen land. If you can get a puppy and learn all you can. Good luck 3 Quote Link to post
