Pups, Credentials?

Jai thats true but a 3/4 grey 1/4 bull would be as good as anyother cross and still a bull cross

 

SHH just in from a three hour mooch actually must admit it does make me laugh how not so long ago your writing articles about daddy taking you out on a school night lamping hares with two dogs and now you giving out advice to people

 

In all honesty I wouldn't pick a 3/4 greyhound dog for ferreting mate.

 

In fact . . . . I don't think i'd pick any dog that had a pure grey as a parents . . . . for pretty much any task.

 

As for a bull blooded dog being as good as a collie blooded dog for the ferreting. . . . . aye perhaps so . . . in some cases. But i'd say 9 times out of 10. . . . . if you were looking for a ferreting dog, to do regular ferreting and pretty much just that . . . . . i'd be willing to bet a pastoral blooded animal, rather than one with bull blood will have more success.

 

Now don't get me wrong. . . . i'm not saying that bull x's can't go ferreting, or that every collie x is better at it than any bull x, or that bull blood doesn't add something into the mix when put with the collie blood.

 

However . . . . some blood just suits some tasks better . . . . in general.

on a more serious note arching back to what Phil was saying.................

 

There is an old guy not to far from me that thinks he knows it all and there's a few that think he does. but he's a dinosaur stuck in the past. Things have moved on a lot in our world over the last decade even, from understanding canine behavior to medicines and even training techniques without mentioning technology. I not suggesting that the modern techniques are always right by any means especially when it comes to field craft.

 

What I particularly like about that post is that Phil admits he's still learning and that's something some dog men find hard to to do never mind admit . Hats off to you Phil it's a mantra that I live by also and you've probably forgotten more than I've learnt

 

I'll finish with this statement

 

"A man that think he knows it all really knows Fork all." it's hard to admit with macho pride and ego's

 

and shh There's always someone who will know less and someone who will know more or better ................that shouldn't stop you giving advice just don't get offended when it's not taken or thrown in your face................ some of you may disagree with that

Don't worry raw got rhino hide me lol.

 

Its true, the older generation may have peaked 20 years ago and if they did they may have got lucky and stayed level but that may mean into today's day and age they actually ainy much kop

 

shh please stop so anyone thats was doing it 20 years ago wont be much kop today

So you would never have a first cross collie grey as a ferreting dog then ??? ......
