I have heard that non-peds can sometimes throw "bullies", dogs that are overly muscled and often have overbites as well. How often does this occur? Does it seem to be a fluke thing, or dependant on certain lines? And are there usually just one per litter, or have you ever seen a whole litter of bullies? Do they occur in pedigreed Whippets too? Where do they come from? A mutated gene, a result of line breeding/inbreeding or a throwback to the terriers from way back?

yeah we do get throw backs, normally only one or 2 in a litter can be due to breeding certain lines with each other cause the throw backs, but some of them can really run shirley ashworth a lady at our club has one and it can really run when its fit, weighs 29lb and is stocked to the rim with muscles but has the nicest temprement, she is also undershot, here is a pic of her racing at fordingbride on sunday in a race which she won
