dogmad riley 1,344 Posted January 17, 2014 Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 I have a saluki whippet greyhound and his concentration while ferreting is excellent. Can't comment on collie x never owned one but have seen them work and the level of obedience that can be taught is unreal. Quote Link to post
Dranny GLC 112 Posted January 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 Iv also got a saluki bull greyhound I just find he is a bit big for ferreting getting though cover for bolters. 1 Quote Link to post

Dranny GLC 112 Posted January 17, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2014 The whippet greyhound is smooth coated and the collie greyhound is rough coated. Quote Link to post
