good stuff and some great finds

iv seen some farm coliie,s hunt up and catch daytime rabbits from there seats,also seem em catch rabbits on the lamp.tinkif i was to go for such a cross then a farmyard collie is the way to go.after all there around the countyside all there lives and sometimes as they may be a bit forgotten at times they catch there own grub.

well done again

i remember a good few years ago finishing off a top out of a newly built farm house.

as i was working i noticed the farmers collie scenting around the field like a good un.

i kept watching and it rose a bunny from its seat(this was the summer time)

it coursed it around the field keeping tight on the turns like a whippet and crashed in full tilt to the cover just behind the rabbit and caught it there!!!

that memory will always be in my mind as i didnt think while in work i would get to see a bit of hunting and catching!!!

it does make sence for me that a farmyard collie will be around the county scents and chasing rabbits and therefore a hunting dog to others as sometimes the farmer leaves its collie to fend for itself which can make them all the more hunters.

good choice for a collie cross lad as thats what i would go for

thanks whin yes colliexgrey xsalukigrey are spot on , as i said just got the edge on a 1x collie grey as alrounder. But Bryn is brill hunting dog day+night, hope he keeps it up as some 1x collie greys as they get older can think a bit to much on what they want to do:yes:

thanks , i think a nice salukixgrey bitch something with about 3/8 saluki in the mix. Bryn is fast, good feet+coat, so prob just try bit more wind from the x, for big rabbits. Bryn as found quite few, when mooching about like a proper old type of lurcher does So with his drive, brain+nose and that extra bit of wind in the pups, you would have some Brill lurcher pups.

couple here + rabbits

ya find right bitch should have some good pups. got a first x col whip 21.5tts, wish i went for grey col for bit more height and weight for big stuff. shes only 2 and half but handy little mooching dog
