Not saying this is the norm just my and families experience atbmy thoughts as well. Haven't seen a beddy cross that wasn't 100% committed to what it was after regardless of its size. Can't say the same for collie crosses. Not knocking collie crosses as there a favorite of mine. 1 Quote Link to post

wuyang 513 Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Use right collie.......some do hold up...some don't....a touch of beardie in the mix did the job for me. In fact I can't see why beardie isn't used more instead of beddy Edited March 9, 2015 by wuyang 1 Quote Link to post
nothernlite 18,077 Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 You think that would tell you something why the beddy used more had a beardie great we bitch but was laid up alot with bad feet good we bitch apart from that Quote Link to post
wuyang 513 Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 (edited) Mine was a cracker,,,,, never had a foot problem, in fact great feet...and that back when I was young and always out., in fact he was the hardiest of lurchers I've worked. Still can't see why beddy more popular. Edited March 9, 2015 by wuyang Quote Link to post
nothernlite 18,077 Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Think the feet thing was just bad luck nothing to do with the beardie if anything they should have good feet had the border collie crosses as well but the beddie seen to do it for me but if was to get another collie cross think I would go towards the beardie myself 1 Quote Link to post
Moorside 642 Posted March 9, 2015 Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 How many beardies still work? Honest question ive been on plenty of farms all over and never seen one. Plenty of border collies and the odd kelpie but no beardies. Quote Link to post
