3/4 breds going back to greyhounds

[Guest hpool_hunter]

im just curious to why put a 3/4 bred back to a greyhound , wouldnt that * knock out* what ever the 1/4 was? just there seem to be a few people doing this now ,

 

any info from people who have done it? i know a few on the site that have recently done it , so reasons why off them ? anything good or bad

 

im not nocking people doing this. as i think that some as any litter , may turn out great , and some bad .

 

all best

Guess people just want racier dogs...which kinda defeats the purpose be as well with full Grey. A lot of good working strains have been ruined by the addition of to much grey blood.

Yeah,.never quite figured that one out...

 

To me, it seems like going around and around in ever decreasing circles,.and then finally disappearing up your own arse

 

But,..each to their own....

Pretty pointless to me, might aswell get a greyhound pup and rear it like you would a *lurcher*. But each to their own.

The trouble with theory's is, that there is always somthing practicle , that dicredits the theroy

 

or in other words i have seen some very usefull sighthound saturated dogs

[Guest oldskool]

IMO, some folk think speed is the answer to everything but its not... i like watching a fast lurcher sprinting up a field after a long slip but there is, what i like to call, a happy medium!!

 

i think alot of eejits are breeding dogs with alot of greyhound blood simply so they can go to the shows in summer time and win races

[Guest world.hunters]

i was concidering this breeding but am now not doing it.

do you think that it would make a differnce on what the 1/4 of the 3/4 bred parent is .

 

i.e - collie/saluki/bull and so on . as surely the trait of the 1/4 still should come through ,

Thats the funny thing with genetics theres no absolutes, the more breeds you add the % of each dog varies significantly
