I like the idea of a coursing dog x a Lurcher.. 

I will hopefully be trying this next year. I’ve got a strong beddy Lurcher, and I’m putting a coursing dog over her. I’ve a few stud dog options so I’ve not decided which one yet. 
I love how my Lurcher hunts and works, but for where I live and the stuff I chase, a bit more stamina would be ideal.. I just hope I don’t loose too much of the beddy traits that I really like.

My beddy/whippet (1st cross) yaps.. my beddy Lurcher dosent. I wonder if it’s the whippet than makes them yap and not the beddy. 
I do so much more than lamping with mine.. hunting is where she really excels I think. But she has a good go at most jobs.. just lacks a bit of stamina sometimes, especially where I live.

Thats what i run at the moment coursing dog x lurcher , have done a few years now . I find they can adapt to most things. Can be alittle soft temprement wise but they stay comsistant throughout the season.

Just my opinion , but I think most first cross beddy/whippets are overmatched and tend to yap out of frustration. Not so much with a beddy whippet/grey or beddy/ grey.

Dont get me wrong, I like a bit of beddy in the cross, I had a little bitch , Delta that was 1/4 beddy, the rest was whippet/greyhound/deerhound and never yapped in her life.

Ive owned and worked many whippets, both ped and non-ped and never had one yap but I’m sure some do, again probably by being overmatched or started too young.

Again, just my opinion, some will agree, some will disagree

Cheers.

I’m pretty lucky that I’ve got a few mates with some good coursing dogs.. well bred as well. I’ve also got access to some straws.. I’ll have a good look this winter and then decide. One of my hunting mates put a coursing dog over his Lurcher a few years ago. The pups are about 3 now and are absolute killing machines. He’s only got bitches though. 
I live in Lincolnshire and the fields are big and vast, and that’s where mine struggles a bit. But her nose and willing to follow a line well out of sight from me helps he account for bags of game. I offen just put the tracking collar on and let her loose on the edge of a wood or moorland and just watch the tracker and wait for the sound of contact. She’s a good pamper though even despite of her great nose.. straight back, no hunting up unless I let her.

Yes definitely.. not fast enough.  To be honest though, I class her more of a leggy terrier than a Lurcher.. she even goes to ground
