Reckon they’d be too slow for anything bigger than rabbits? Shame that really as they look like they could take a few knocks but suppose no point adding stuff that’s lacking speed to run fast quarry

You could say the same as a collie  beddie  most stuff added to a sighhound hasn't got the speed to catch rabbits  but there added for a reason to toughen the sighhound up or add heart

Well they’re getting more popular now so will be interesting to see if they catch on for bigger quarry

Not really think they be capable  of a few things bigger than rabbits over a shorter distance  they have no fear and are very tough that dillydog cross he's just done will be more tha capable of bigger stuff mixed in with the right breeding you  would have very good dog 

They look like a cracking pair, be interesting to see the results

Could be better a good grew over her could be the answer 

Was thinking that me self, say nice grew to a acd bitch, a  not quite a 1x as such with  2 sighthounds as such in the mix but poss better, as whippet gives speed/agility, and plenty of guts for most quarry, the none ped racing whippets down the track hit 22-23in 34lb, would pile into foxes no prob if you let them, so drop greyhound as well good as well. The acd side clever tough dogs great stamina, good coat, I really think make good mooching dog, and good lamp dog, feck me if big old Buck could catch  38 in a night and couple Charlie's if need be, they do it no prob. If was younger /fitter it be a type x I deff find room for in my kennel
