brockdog 285 Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 lot of years ago i had a decent deerhound x greyhound.This dog hated fox,s with a passion.would kill 2 to 3 a night every week.now at the same time my hunting partner had a collie x greyhound that would only do foxes doubled up.now over the years i have had nearly all crosses for the fox job and still have,nt really came across a good single handed collie cross for the foxes.all preban of course.my question is the collie crosses are basically brilliant rabbit dogs and some have a bit of bottle or do you have to use the right collie to produce fox dogs? don,t want to start a mass slagging match its just a topic that me and my friend can,t see eye to eye on.

As soon as you put 2 or 3 a night every week i lost interest,why don,t you and your friend find something else more worthwhile to discuss,girls,boys,football or beer. Quote Link to post
