Collie x and deerhound x. Coming together

[Guest first light]

_{this cross in my eyes is the true classic lurcher that can do all thats required of a working dog plus more if need be if id have to put money on a cross that could produce good serviceable allround workers this cross would be it}

looks like the good dog men are getting on this now its a good cross mate

obviously a popular mix, didn't 'chalky' do similar years ago with 'lucy', and 'col ted walsh' in lurchers and longdogs described how to breed his ideal lurcher using this blend, but given today's 3/8 x 5/8 etc what would be the ideal mix ie 1st x collie greyhound to a 3/4 greyhound deerhound or a 1st x deerhound greyhound to a 3/8 collie 5/8 greyhound or.....................?

[my hounds 307]

I bred a litter of these, my bitch is a 3/4 greyound 1/4 collie, 25".... I put a first x deerhound greyhound 30" over her, the pups are 10 month old n coming along really nice, the dog pups are around 27" and the 2 bitch pups are 26 ".......

I will get my mate to put some pics up later as i am shit wae these things..............

I had one back in the 's not a world beater but a decent dog, took a fair few hares good strike but not the best on the turn, he was an easy to live with type of dog.
