Savy 2 Posted October 1, 2012 Report Share Posted October 1, 2012 Collie crosses are often accused of having too much brain, not trying and being difficult, there probably the easiest dog to train, been around for a long time and will be around for many years to come. I personally wouldnt have a first cross unless it favoured the greyhound in its build. The lurcher i run now is a beddy grey x collie grey and that mix is perfect for the work i do, ive yet to see a dog with a better nose than a beddy cross. I am sure that a lot of guys slag the collie cross off because they are afraid of owning a dog with a higher IQ than themselves. YIS KIC. Hi what type of work is it you do as I am Intrested in getting myself a bedxgrey and wondering what best type of work to be involved in? Regards Quote Link to post

Hi what type of work is it you do as I am Intrested in getting myself a bedxgrey and wondering what best type of work to be involved in? Regards i only go on dogs that ive owned not as x , and having had beddyx whippetxgrey, and had 2 colliexs and Bryn is my 2nd. The beddyx, was very hard mouth, wouldnt bring back, and go deaf when it wanted to, which most of the time. The colliexs not bad mouth 95% rabbits are alive when lamping, get the odd few dead when the dog is tired, very biddble easy to train . The only thing for( me) is most collie xs are very sensitve type temp which piss me off alot, and even though as rabbitng dog they are very hard to beat, its put me off the x . And thats why ive gone for a 1x gsd x grey dog pup , a x very simlar to colliexs regards the above working abilty, but a tougher type temp more fire in there belly, from what ive read and from good mates.Well i will soon find out lol .
