blackmaggie 3,376 Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 (edited) As Hancock goes at least you know what you're getting but I would never even talk to him never mind buy of them there's better collie greys out there worked and worked hard but there not for me but I have been lucky enough to see a few gooduns and there worth any kennel space but as for colour feck me I couldn't care if a dog was pink if it can do a job well it will have a good home for life a good collie x is in my opinion hard to beat as a all rounder Edited March 29, 2018 by blackmaggie 1 Quote Link to post

blackmaggie 3,376 Posted March 29, 2018 Report Share Posted March 29, 2018 No offence buddy but for the amount of pups they turn out I would say genuine hard grafted dogs was a low percentage and I don't think they as a line or whatever through generations have proved anything really 2 Quote Link to post

I got offered a lovley blue merle for 195 in jan from a guy in durham from dragon driving...why didnt i take it? Oh it had some deerhound somewhere in it. Pets4homes often has meles up cheaper. If id a gone just for colour now i wudnt have drove 6 hours n forked out 350. I knew what i wanted and got what i wanted. Fair play to me. Love or hate hancock me not purchasing a pup isnt gunna put em out of buisness. Forgive me for knowing my own mind. ATB 5 Quote Link to post

Each to there own opinions. I been hancocks, i saw many dogs out if kennels rolling around, barking just been dogs. Dunno about the bitches but same could be said for some on here who knows how many only get let out for the odd nights work and penned in the rest. Who knows. No ones ever gunna agree. But i bet theres many tucking into a pork chop/chicken without giving a f**k where it came from 1 Quote Link to post
