wexford-digger 1 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 I have a 3/8 5/8 collie hound bitch and have decided to breed from her this year,she is by far one of the most intelligent and well mannerd running dogs I have owned Quote Link to post
wexford-digger 1 Posted April 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 If anything this birch is a tiny bit short in pace however I have no complaints about the amount of game she catches.a mate of mine is going mad to pit hid 3 quarter bred bull grey over her,o was thinking more along the lines of a strong saluki bull greyhound.any suggestions?

Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 You can't go wrong putting some grafting saluki blood in there in my opinion. Gaz 1 Quote Link to post
wexford-digger 1 Posted April 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Can you attach a pic of him Scott? Quote Link to post
Gaz_1989 9,539 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Wexford, will you do me a favour, put a pic of your bitch and let me know what sire you use and then drop me a PM. If it's saluki blooded sire then I'm really interested in this breeding, saluki/collie maybe with a dash of bull. Would like to see how pups turn out. Gaz Quote Link to post
Sorley x 32 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 Ask yourself what do you want from the pups, what does the bitch lack or what are her strong points. Look for a stuf dog to match her and compliment her. Also one that will give you the pups that you are after. Quote Link to post
iceman001979 1,316 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 When breeding a bitch you should be looking to better the bitch so look for a sire that has everything your bitch does not then you get the pup your looking Quote Link to post
Chid 6,542 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 get your self a proven dog that as done a few seasons work .... if i had a collie cross i know who i would be asking to use their dog as stud... scott are you offering a dog that is not 2 yet ... thats as done a seasons work at most ...as a back problem ... up for stud Quote Link to post
wexford-digger 1 Posted April 15, 2011 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 My bitch is 5year old now and well proven,as I said the only fault I have is she could b doing with s small bit extra speed,I have got my heart set on crossing her with a saluki bull greyhound but the dog will have to be atleast 4 year old and atleast be at the same standard as her,she OS 24tts so I'd b looking for a dog around 24-25 no taller than 26 if I don't find the right dog I will hold off till she breaks again Quote Link to post
poacher3161 1,766 Posted April 15, 2011 Report Share Posted April 15, 2011 A sighthound bred lurcher.Though the cross you have got a lad local to me years ago put a greyhound x bedlington to his bitch and the pups turned out very good pot filling lurchers. Quote Link to post
