undisputed 1,664 Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 1st lurcher was a collie/whippet/grey mix, no complaints about her work wise...now run 3/4 grey 1/4 collie x wish I had started with this x years before I did. Quote Link to post
Rory4 267 Posted September 19, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 so you wouldnt want the whippet in the dog? Quote Link to post
undisputed 1,664 Posted September 19, 2008 Report Share Posted September 19, 2008 so you wouldnt want the whippet in the dog? No not now mate I like whippet x's but I find the 3/4 x more versatile folk may disagree but thats my opinion Quote Link to post

Strong Stuff 2,171 Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 My first is a Bull X too, am enjoying learning and watching. Pup is now 7 months old. Not going too bad considering the Stafford spent the first week trying to murder the pup, not playing rough or dominating him, if I had left them the pup would be dead now ............... now look at them!

glamour 1 Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 My first lurcher is a bull cross... 11 weeks now and so suprisingly clever. Quote Link to post
Guest oldskool Posted September 20, 2008 Report Share Posted September 20, 2008 mine was a whippet x grey.... took everything i aimed her at and even done terrier work as well... i bought her for the £30 quid because the lad couldnt stand her yipping on the lamp... it was only the odd yip here and there so it didnt bother me in the slightest...
