killa-combo 142 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 lol i read the start of the post "white dog in the field no good" and was about to disagree but you beat me to it,,, had two white ones and never had a problem with them apart from hiding from farmers through the day and having to lie on the dog to hide it haha always thought white dogs looked well too Quote Link to post
ferreter.al 22 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 colour will have no bearing on how dog will work as far as i can see,i got a fawn bullx and he is easier to see at night which is obviously a downside and dosent blend into cover verywell during the day,i never herd anyone say white dogs are no good apart from these reasons.to me breeding is more important than clour! atvb Quote Link to post
berty1 8 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 But who said white dogs are no good in the field? You asked the question than answered it yourself with the obvious answer?? I dont get it. Quote Link to post

NOOK/ANNA 96 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) Colour has nothing to do with the working ability of a dog. That would be like saying a red car would always be faster than a black car. Think their was a stigma attached to white dogs back in the day when a lot of poaching was done because they where so easier to see. Saying that any time ive had or seen a white dog out lamping they have been good grafters. An they've been just as hard to see as any other colour of dog unless they are ryt beside you. atb Edited January 24, 2010 by NOOK/ANNA Quote Link to post
