trenchfoot 4,243 Posted January 2, 2016 Report Share Posted January 2, 2016 3/8ths collie 1/4 collie 1/2 collie feck knows! smart animals. Ive been looking into getting a 3/8 5/8- the pup in mind isnt ready till the end of Jan, trying to make my mind up still . Any saluki in her or straight collie grey cheers the 3/8 is only 16month old, but a far smarter critter. If I only needed a dog to just run stuff, then the 1/4 is probably a better bet, but as far as a dog to find, catch and run hard, the younger dog is showing the signs of being amongst the best I have owned. She has a good splash of saluki on the dams side which has given a slightly feral attitude compared to some of the more responsive collie x's I have had/seen. But she has had free run of the farm since 12 weeks old, not trained to the back teeth like I have tried to do before. it has allowed a freer thinking dog, that to date has not been phased by anything she has come across. 3 Quote Link to post

hare_n_hounds 157 Posted January 3, 2016 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2016 Ive only had experience with border collie xs, found them very clever and loyal, one man dog etc that's why I like them that's why some don't lol can be quite sensitive f#ckers at times. How does the bearded fair up in comparison? Any difference in temperament Quote Link to post
