obi2 239 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 With these types if lurcher, if they were brought up round terriers from an early age do you think there us still a good chance that one day out flushing the adrenalin takes over and they nail a terrier? Quote Link to post
danny300 2,240 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 it could happen in the yard if there together terriers can be wee fcukers and start over nothing . not seen it in the field Quote Link to post
bird 9,968 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 With these types if lurcher, if they were brought up round terriers from an early age do you think there us still a good chance that one day out flushing the adrenalin takes over and they nail a terrier? why should there be,? they know the the differnce from a terrier and the quarry there are after.And as you say brought up from pups, less chance. Ive been out with 4 bullxs + terriers working , and if any dog getts to hot head its the feckin terriers . The only time you would get trouble from the above dogs is if they kenneled or loose in a yard together, as the terriers would wind the bigger dogs up, and your the boss so they should big dogs do as you say.!!

Discharge 0 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 Once I was walking my dog in some woods popular with dog walkers, and he'd been chasing squirrels about and was full of adrenaline. We came across a family walking a tiny little "handbag" dog, and he ran over, picked up the dog and ran off with it. The little dog was unhurt, but its owner wasn't impressed, and I choose where I let him run a bit more carefully now. Quote Link to post
PhilProp 51 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 No not at all i got both bullx and terrier livin together dont bither each other.

GrCh 856 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 I have a staff and a bullx and they get one great but wouldn't dream of leaving them alone together because if it did kick off i'd have no lurcher left. Quote Link to post
whipmistress 12 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 There is as much chance of a Colliex killing a terrier as any other Lurcher. 1 Quote Link to post
the night hunter 130 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 usually the terrier will start the greif and end up getting its arse handed back to it. Quote Link to post
Bogger 243 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 yes they are both mindless killers and will maul anything in sight Quote Link to post

obi2 239 Posted December 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 There is as much chance of a Colliex killing a terrier as any other Lurcher. Collies weren't bred for killing smaller animals or fighting, these two are. It would only be kennelled together the first few months and then they would be separated. Quote Link to post
dogger 100 Posted December 13, 2011 Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 my grandad told me about a pure greyhound killing a terrier at a farm he used to walk by, the grey gave it one shake and it was away so any big dog is probably capable of it if its temper gets up Quote Link to post
obi2 239 Posted December 13, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2011 In my opinion I think it would be very very rare for a ie collie, saluki, grey, whippet lurcher to just attack a terrier in the field! One which it had been brought up with especially. The bull and Wheaton crosses I dont know much about or seen many work so basically I'm just wanting the guys that do work them to reel me what they think. Quote Link to post
