advert on preloved site "These puppies were purpose bred to produce small type lurchers with good bone. Dam is 14" black whippet from Laguna and Sooty Sam lines and sire is 12" chinese crested from top lines"
 
a 14" whippet -thats the same size as sid in my sig pic jack x and i thought my lurcher was diddy at 17", i wonder if the crested was a bald one or fluffy one -thats just weird but its not a lurcher unless its sighthound x working so anyone know what chinese cresteds are for? guarding herding etc

'winter woolies on to go lamping' pmsl bunnies laughing so hard easier to catch
 
grrrr don't set me off :rant: i think its one of the worst things you could do is introduce the hairless gene into other breeding ,the whippet is thin enough skinned without having no fur either :rant: and then have the audacity to advertise them as working dogs :rant:

wasn't the original purpose of a crested was to be a hot water bottle :angry: the hairy and the hairless carry the hairless gene

Chinese Crested dogs are originally from Africa where they were called "African Hairless Terriers." The ancient tribe of the Aztecs liked these dogs very much - and apparently they were used by them to warm their beds. They also did eat them. Chinese trading ships stopped along Africa on their routes and it was there that they picked up these dogs because they were excellent in controlling pests aboard their ships. They renamed these dogs to "Chinese Crested" and the name stuck since then.

I wondered if they were something to do with the Mexican Hairless????? What ever they are, crossing them with a whippets is a horrible idea. I suppose it is another designer dog that will sell for big money.

With regard to the above statement: Did the Aztec tribes not come from South or Central America rather than Africa?

All the same, sounds like a daft cross.
 
I own both ot these breeds but the thought of crossing them makes me so cross i like a lot of others can only imagine its for the money unless it was a mistake i hope nobody buys them.
 
I love crested and thats what i want my next dog to be. been after one for a few years but the thougt of one crossed with a whippet no thanks there boths wondrefull breeds on there own but crossed Think i would pass that up
 
chinese crested with chips and rice plz lol poor wee things lol :lol:
 
Don't Chinese Cresteds have a lot of problems with their teeth? The only two I know have been toothless from quite a young age - not a lot of use in a 'lurcher', I suppose they could gum the bunnies a bit.
 
I think these were most likely bred from a 'powderpuff' chinese crested which is covered with fluffy hair, not the one which is bald with a hairy head. ;) I've seen the pics of the pups and some of them already have a thick coat of wavy hair, so I don't thik they'll suffer too much on that score. But it's a silly cross all the same :D
