Sirius 1,391 Posted April 9, 2014 Report Share Posted April 9, 2014 (edited) The collie 'Creeping' with head held low and belly close to the ground or stopping like a lion in an ambush, its a very strong trait, and more so in pastoral breeds. Just go watch them in the field working. :yes: You wont get that behaviour displayed anywhere near as much watching some pseudo whippets sighthounds running round a field or a bunch of labradors, that's for sure If I should hazard a guess, its way more likely to come from the pastoral blood running through a lurchers veins than anything else.But I doubt the thread needs to discuss the finer points of breed behaviour, as for me its just good to see fellow members such as idealations lurcher pup growing up.

Good Hunting Sirius Aye, it's definaly a strong collie trait. Watch a sheep dog trial. . . . . Doesn't mean other dogs dont do it, as ultimataly the collies working style, is a refined hunting style. But all of the collie curs i've seen do it. . . . . And i've never seen a whippet do it lol. Cheers for all of the positive comments anyhow! Quote Link to post
