Greyhound Blood in Non Ped WHIPPET Breeding

MONSIEUR  DUPONT, DO YOU RUN A NO LIMIT DOG, AND IF NOT THEN WHAT ARE YOU CONCERNING YOURSELF ABOUT, WHEN IT DONT CONCERN YOU...WHY ARE YOU MAKING IT YOUR PROBLEM THEN?

Maurice, i don't run a no limit but i think i'm entitled to an opinion on the way they are being bred just as everyone else is.

In fact anyone breeding a litter should be concerned as they could potentially end up with a 36lber in the litter (as i did from my 30lb 1/4 greyhound bitch to a 23lb dog) having to run off or pull out of Supreme Scratch with what are basicly greyhounds.

See why you've split the topic Vicky,but I need to mention Magical Dreams in this topic.This question is for anyone.How does Graham manage to breed from his own dog,(in the hope that he produces a pup with similar ability and size)without breeding him across a sizeable bitch.?I think if he'd have used a 1/2 or 3/4 cross then this topic would still have arisen.Should we then have to accept that a great No Limit such as Magical Dreams will never have the chance to produce offspring :( Karen
 
Thanks for your reply Mick, but could post a step by step equation of how you came to this result?

If you do that then what happens to dogs that make bigger when greyhound is used in the breeding.Or are you saying ban the use of greyhounds in the breeding of non peds

Easy, put it over a first cross whippet greyhound Karen, result = 6/8 on paper.

So can we now get back on topic please, show me the % of whippet in this breeding. I will only reply to post in respect of %

ps I'm not intrested in posts about hight or weight.

You might not be interested in height or weight,but are you saying then this would be acceptable even if the resulting pup(s) reached 60lb and had the speed to go with it?

no just keep the whippet size dogs together & run the over 21" dogs in as many classes as you need to eg: 35/45/55/65/75 .mick

if you run under 21" dogs you are most unlikely to get dogs much bigger than 35lbs these will resemble whippets more than some of the larger scratch dogs do, so the over 21" heavier dogs can be run in an classes of 5lbs or 10lbs or just one scratch over 21" .mick
