First Cross Kelpie Dog

[gamerooster 1,179]

As stated, does anyone know of anyone with a first cross kelpie greyhound dog doing the job that'd use it for stud? Free pup given..... I know sleight has one but would rather have one doing the job

Why would d sleights dog not be doing the job the man has worked lurchers for 40 years plus.

Sorry mate, didn't think he worked lurcher, just kept them like Hancock, my mistake

Walked out with a few Kelpie hybrids,...really liked them...

I've heard good things about them Phil, very similar to collie greys but not as sensitive, meant to be quite hard dogs to

One of the types id like to try along with a Aussie cattle dog x .

 

Good luck in your search

What bitch would you be thinking of putting it over gamerooster?

Greyhound mate, to breed some 3/4 beds to cover all areas

Robbieg's mate did have one a few years back. Really rated it, drop Rob a pm.

Do you think that breeding this way will produce a level and predictable litter?

 

Will you not get some pups throwing to the greyhound and others to the kelpie?

 

Genuine questions.

[gamerooster 1,179]

Yes and no gaz, obviously there will be some difference in the litter but being 3/4 grey that should level them all out a bit, they should be fast enough for most jobs though some will be faster and others will have more stamina

most 3/4 bred dogs should be suitable for all types of hunting but I would still prefer the 1st x as a mooching companion

no. You will have better luck with an even litter in my opinion.

theyve been tried, probably get the same as you would get from a first cross collie litter, with a little less litter wastage..but will always suit some folk

Thanks for the answer. I always liked the 3/4 grey 1/4 collie types. Be interesting to see how the 1/4 kelpies turn out.
