Sully. 342 Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 I would go off the basis of are you hoping to do more edibles or teeth? If teeth stick to straight bull greyhounds. Saluki’s aren’t great dogs for teeth. 5 Quote Link to post

I seen them advertised on here a couple of years ago, wished I had room at the time! Quote Link to post

paulus 26 Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 Personally i think you need to clarify on what you think an all rounder is. Quote Link to post

An all-rounder for me would be a dog that will take all game but excels at some jobs better than others. I personally would want something that will handle bigger edibles more than other jobs but will still get into other stuff when the opportunity arises. I'm probably asking to much! Quote Link to post

THE STIFFMEISTER 14,620 Posted January 26 Report Share Posted January 26 Imho they are good for f***ing about with on the lamp as you’d expect but i think the cross looses a bit of each types strengths . Bull x to coursing lurcher type is the best way I’ve seen it done , wouldn’t worry too much about percentages Quote Link to post

I did run a saluki bull greyhound a while back that did well all-round but did lack the drive that I seen in just bull greyhounds for real drive and determination I have three, all along a similar theme, but all subtly different. One is a nephew of the above mentioned dog. A mate has a son of the dog mentioned above and another a daughter. It’s like everything, you cannot put into a dog what is not there. All most of us are trying to achieve is a physical body capable of carrying a dog to its quarry, but it’s the heart in it which decides what happens then. 1 Quote Link to post
Penda 3,228 Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 If you want a dog that don't give 2 fs you need a bull x mate I've ran a few saluki grey bull grey but they weren't a patch on a decent bull grey bred dog I've got 1 of both this breeding in my kennels now and I can tell you the bull greys got the working style I favour more even though the saluki bull grey is abit more laid back he lacks in some things but in his defence working wise he never had best start til.i had him. 2 Quote Link to post

What make up is the bull greyhound you have mate? I've got it in my head that if I went for a bull greyhound lurcher inside of a SBG then a 3/4 grey 1/4 bull would be better for daytime big edibles. Have seen some bullxs a bit too muscle bound so a strong racy type is what I'm ideally looking for. Quote Link to post

If you plan on running daytime the saluki blood will bring a lot to the table, as long as it’s the right saluki blood Quote Link to post
