Oh, apologies. When you said first cross wolf. I thought you meant  just that. I thought you were joking.

But a wolf hound/ greyhound is different. Now I understand.

Keep posting. Over here we are straightjacketed  by anti hunting laws. So it would be great to see how that pup develops.

wolf hound x grey

Some of us like the APBT X Greyhound for stuff that bites back. I take it by Wolf hound you dont mean the big hairy show types that look like fat Scotch hounds?

I judged a wolfhound/greyhound the other week in Conwy. Bloke brought that, and a trailer full of different crosses over from Northern Ireland. He was tiny, and the dog as big as him..!

To be honest, the beast looked like it had a gallop in it. And I asked what it was like on foxes. He replied that he'd never tried it on them. It was just a deer dog, at which it did very well, and running it on foxes may spoil that..!!

All I know is that, neither dog nor owner looked like they could deal with a deer in the field, and I wouldn't like to shovel up after it...

I don’t know what the wolf hounds in Canada are like, but the ones here would be useless as a cross, far to big and heavy.

My little bitch Delta with a pure Wolfhound;

The Aussie lads on here will recognise Doug Mummerry, he bred and used pure wolfhounds for hunting and his dogs are in the lines of many crosses, but the Australian version of the Wolfhound is different to our show types ;
