Here is a picture of one of my dogs Tilly

She has been purposely line bred (24" to the shoulder and weighs 55lb)
There are 5 well recognized breeds in her ancestry
can anybody guess what they are? (sorry about the quality of the photo)
All the best

There's a dog in that picture?

 

[stripe]

Sorry me and cameras dont get on

 

[Dogstar]

She's obviously a lurcher or longdog of some stripe, right? (Pun intended, I'm sorry, I couldn't help it.) I'm going to guess two of the three are whippet and BC, maybe with something wire-coated in there too? Deerhound, maybe?

 

[stripe]

Yes you got 2
Whippet and border collie

 

[RonE]

Sorry me and cameras dont get on

I'm just teasing you. It's a beautiful dog standing in a beautiful bit of country.

But its a fact of life you could give me the best camera in the world and my pictures would not improve.

 

[Mr Pooch]

Has she got staffie in her? i only ask because county duram has alot.

 

[Nargle]

I was going to guess Border Collie and Greyhound, since 24 inches is pretty tall! Maybe she has some Great Dane or Borzoi?

 

[stripe]

Yes definately some bull terrier in her staffy or Pit (before the government made them illegal)

Thats 4
Whippet
Border Collie
Bull terrier
Greyhound
Only 1 more to get.

 

[CorgiKarma]

I love Lurchers Wolfhound maybe?

 

[stripe]

Sorry not a wolfhound
CLUE Look at the head (if you can see it with my amazing photography skills)

 

[Nargle]

Smoooooothe collie?

 

[CorgiKarma]

Collie maybe?

 

[stripe]

Correct guesses so far
Whippet (quickness and agility)
Border Collie (inteligence and trainability)
Bull terrier (gameness and aggresion)
Greyhound (speed)
Only 1 left
Another clue: Its a sighthound used for its stamina

 

[GSDGAL]

i'm gonna say Saluki....

 

[CorgiKarma]

...Saluki?

 

[stripe]

Well done GSDGAL and CorgiKarma that is the right answer
So Tilly is Whippet/border collie/bull terrier/greyhound/saluki
Hope everybody enjoyed this bit of fun

[Independent George]

So Tilly is Whippet/border collie/bull terrier/greyhound/saluki

Good luck coming up with a cutesy designer-dog name for that.

Border Bullwhip Hounduki? Grey Whippier Cooki? Bullwhip Coluki Hound?
