trenchfoot 4,243 Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Isn't there anybody on here who hunts a border collie that could be used to stud? One thing I found when I used to hunt pure border collies from working stock was they would all lamp and ferret more or less the same with a keen interest....seemed to keep their brain ticking over, but when it came to hunting up quarry they varied massively in their desire to do so, especially if they had to hunt when scents were few and far between which is what it is like around me. On another note does anybody like abit of working beardie in the mix.......I'm really suprised working beardie blood isn't more common in collie lurchers, it seems really under valued. I have a collie here that hunts with the lurchers and alone. used him once at stud and to be honest the pups turned out well physically, mentally they were to sensitive for most folk and would do your head in. I got sick of being pestered to use him again, so had his nuts off. there is enough dogs homes fillers out there as it is he doesnt mind getting stuck in 1 Quote Link to post

Rabbiting man 1,191 Posted August 16, 2013 Report Share Posted August 16, 2013 Why don't you give a Collie/Whippet a go. I own one she bang on for the rabbits. I don't have to have a special mindset to want this cross that some people say. 4 Quote Link to post
