good photos, for me the first cross, bred from ex working, Hill, bitch, with a top coursing greyhound, you got some very good all round lurchers, but now, to find that retired hill bitch is very difficult, (( due to commercial value,and the coursing champion is No longer,

available,((( again to the Ban, ((( and breeding of a pet collie is not Ideal,, to a reject of a track greyhound,, that is why a lot of people, were against that very good cross, (((( they were breeding from crap, and they thought they could produce, world beaters,, but you can always look for a pup from proven working stock, both parents doing there job,, but again that is difficult, due to the fact the owner, and the stud dogs owner have the pick of the litter, so by the time you get there is 2 or 3 pups left to pick from, and usually they have all the collie traits, which means lack of gears, but maybe OK. for lam- ping rabbits, and they can do the old red boy, if you are into that one,

and probably have a very good nose on them, for marking and scenting, (((( just thought I would pass a few minutes away, with this little post, No harm or disrespect,to any one or there dogs,

Trouble with collie lurchers is that they can get a bit too clever .

I mean one minute she was retrieving sticks and the next thing I know she's gone all artistic on me and I've got the council round about running a business from home !

Border lad, i totally agree with you regards first cross collie greyhounds being hit and miss, like you said, good hill/ fell collies are hard to come by, as are quality coursing greyhounds, my goodfriend Typp Ratcher, always used fell collies and coursing greyhounds when he bred first crosses, i believe to many lads go down the wrong route when breeding first crosses, by using poor substandard collies, and any old greyhound, thats why there,s so much shit around, a proper first cross to me should stand around 22/ 24 inches be short coupled and racey, not big and heavy, and square shouldered like alot of first crosses are nowadays, that lack pace and agility, me personally i prefer line bred dogs, the majority of the ones i,ve bred throw pretty even. regards collie john.

got thirty years of breeding of colli types in my kennel d slieght started them and i have kept them going ,had them all in there forms and found the line bred ones ,had extra qaulities that i could not get with just colli to greyhound , without a bit of work put in to them ,had some good times with the colli types and some good bags of game ,butt to keep them up to a standard i felt it was dificul;t to find simliar types to breed to , as they are not fashinable now ,the colli types i keep are game as they come but still pretty soft on not biting game and dont lack drive ,but can be mischeivous when not worked at times , ive got enough about me now but it was hard to get good colie tyeps who would do the lot with a bit style , hopefully people will see sense and brreed of the [bANNED TEXT] stock and test them hard and breed them to good stock cause ive had four generaitions of them and they never let me down at the game , or they wouldnt be in the kennel ,its gettin the [bANNED TEXT] balance fast enough to catch a bolting rabb strong enough to and wantin it to catch faster types of qaurry when it was legal ,it would be nice to meet up one day with a few gents who have put a bit time into there stock and swap a pic or two as the coli type will go ,im not talking about pro breeders to me thats a last result talking about tried and tested worker to worker , any way cheers
