Guest oldskool Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 i watched that 'breed all about it' crap that used to be on sky telly for a while... there was an episode about the cattle dogs and it showed them at work.... they backed down to nothing and liked to use the teeth alot and it even showed them sprintin over the sheeps' backs in a bid to single one out... they had alot of go about them... i remember thinkin they would definatley be a handful in the wrong hands although in the right hands they would be awsome...

They tolerate bitches but rarely males, I was told if they cant dominate another dog, they kill it! Link to post Share on other sites

Stabs 3 Posted November 14, 2007 Report Share Posted November 14, 2007 I exercise my lurcher with at least 6 cattle dogs every day...that shows you how intolerant they are. Nearly every bugger has one round here. The person who wrote that they kill dogs they can't dominate is probably the same bloke who wrote that English Bull Terriers are fighting dogs When you do get a nasty one though, they are little buggers Link to post Share on other sites
