oldred58 340 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Heavily saturated Collie crosses ain't for many people when it comes to a hunting companion..no they ain't going to impress on the Fens or on them big bunnies in the main but just about ANY other type of work you can throw at a lurcher then a heavily saturated Collie lurcher is capable of performing to a decent standard..i like having one around me, mine has the nigh on 3/4 Collie in him and the rest is just lurcher with hardly any Grey blood at all.Never faltered at what ive thrown at him..if it breathes from the smallest to our very largest he will do it,lamps,ferrets,hunts..don't be put off with all this bollox of being too slow in general..

Mustelid 143 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Wales1234 did you see the litter in the Countryman's this week? Quote Link to post
Wales1234 5,515 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 Yeaa didnt fancy the reverse 3/4 bred bud Quote Link to post
Mustelid 143 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 It's rare to find well bred half crosses. There was a litter in West Wales advertised in the EDRD in the summer, but they had sold before I rang the breeder. Quote Link to post
Chid 6,537 Posted December 13, 2014 Report Share Posted December 13, 2014 The right reverse 3/4 would be as good as a half x imo... a cross im going to have in the future Quote Link to post

The biggest mistake many make is getting a dog thats not suited to their hunting lifestyle and the land they walk,good post Fuji. Quote Link to post

I have a bitch out of this dog and I really can't stress enough what an excellent all round hunter she is. She has excellent coat,nose feet and stamina. She works very well with a gun and will hunt anything when out mooching. 5 Quote Link to post
