Different Crosses

[forest 137]

I was reading an oldish post started off hot meat about his collie cross terrier and got me thinking has any one tried crossing a snack type lurcher over a springer or a cocker or a leggy terrier purely used for flushing stuff out of cover. It mite of been an accidental mating and you've kept one just to see what it turns out like for example

A chap i met at beating had a collie cross lab, claimed it to be the best dog he ever had. I must admit im a fan of mixed breeds, get the best traits of each breed in 1 dog. Both My terriers father is a jack russel, the grandfather is a plummer and the grandmother is border x russel x plummer x russel. They are nothing short of superb at all aspects of hunting i must admit.

Sounds good .Trying out different crosses ,,,,,,,,,what happens was anyone stuck with too many pups ,,,,,,,,that could not move them on might be better off just buying a pup from a good breeder

The height and build of those dogs looks just what I'd want from a bushing dog.

 

Is the terrier beagle mix very trainable, I'd have thought it would be head strong?
