adam 444 4 Posted June 23, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2010 (edited) collie mate their stamina is a million times better than a bull terrier and they are already used on farms for a reason i got a collie and a bull pup both good on the farm was just wondering if the bull would be as good on the lamp or if it would have the day to day stamina ?

will_rob 3 Posted June 24, 2010 Report Share Posted June 24, 2010 there is a lot of variation in the sizes of border collies that you can get. if i were you i would go for one of the more racey types like my dad has. i would say he is as fast as a whippet but we have never tried him on rabbits.
