I don't understand why there are not more popular. A decent beddie grey is the perfect dog. In fact there really isn't any reason to own another dog unless you live in east Anglia, or somewhere similar.  

Very true

MInes is built up saluki whippet grey x collie whippet Dad the same only to a collie grey. She’s a very driven dog but knows when to slow up, will have a go at whatever we go for she’s proved very adaptable. Hopefully have something off her soon, a wouldn’t be without this type

Collie bedlington mix young bitch I’m hoping for good things from

for general duties that would suit me down to the ground, nicely put together good tight feet, very nice.

my original coursing dogs had bedlington in, and I always fancy doing it again but bottled it, but the way the daytime job is now, soon might be the time to do it I will definitely breed a litter from the bitch I have so if I see the right dog might go this way.

Been watching a farm Collie today doing it's job helping the farmer heard some cows, took a right kick to the ribs. Did well for an old sod, you want dogs like that putting over Greyhounds.

It's even easier for dogging lads with permission. Just think how many farmers will have Collies like i was watching today, i bet most would let them out to stud for free.

Had the same thoughts myself mate, but I reckon they'd still be a handful, good fit beddy cross has got a canny engine aswell, put over a saluki lurcher the pups would likely be high prey driven strong runners
