Good luck with the pups John, seems they ain't for everyone here or on moochers.

They suit you, that's all that counts. Useful fox dogs I would think too.

This the way I see it. Collie john will obviously be hoping those pups will be just what HE is after, for the type of work and ground conditions that HE works his dogs on. 

Will they catch the majority of lamped rabbits on open ground? I very much doubt it. I can't see them fairly catching many rabbits in any conditions day or night really. Ferreting on his hunting grounds, mooching etc, they'll suit him I'd expect, or he wouldn't have bred them.

Would I own one? Up until the last maybe two years, for 90% of the ground I've worked my dogs on in the past, no way, they would NOT be fast/quick enough, don't care how intelligent etc etc they are. And I do like some of these mainly collie bred dogs.  Like a couple on here have already said, most rabbits on most ground go like f**k, and you really do need a very sharp dog on most types of ground.

These days, like many I suspect, I've slowed down, don't want the lamping for 3 or 4 hours, 3 or 4 nights a week, or the desire to catch a tenth of stuff I used to, and just enjoy mooching about for a few hours, sometimes with the air rifle. So one of these pups could possibly suit me, these days.

Long winded reply, sorry collie john lol, just my take on it. Good luck with the pups

Yea your right there his dogs and he can breed what he wants if they suit him then that fine and dandy all this started because I disagreed that a pretty much full collie is an all round rabbit dog , I wish him and the bitch all the best with the pups

There you go paddy I underlined it for you so you can see...

 

now on who’s a dum f**k ay you just wondered on here arguing with your self blah blah 

Yeah fair enough he did call them all rounders but a dog that can lamp ferret and be used as a mooching companion is hardly a one trick pony. And by the way no need for the paddy crack as it’s just a cheap shot ye dumb fcuk. .
