So work that one out .??? How many work them ? By work I don't mean fly ball and x country running . i ask because he sold more pups to pet,fly ball and dog runners than he did to working homes . im in no way saying they don't work as ones I seen been good workers but I only see a couple.

gaza 508 Posted August 27, 2019 Report Share Posted August 27, 2019 Cracker that mate. Was sick of waiting for collie whippet grey pup. Wanted a line bred dog instead of half cross to a whippet which was the only litters that seemed to come up. Was tempted to go hancocks but ended up beddy whippet grey with an 1/8 collie in.

I missed out there Everyone who buys from him goes on the offensive. It's all fine getting an 8 week old pup off him and socialiseing it early yourself but I wouldn't fancy paying over the top money for a 16 week old pup that hasn't been socialised early enough and ends up nervous. It would be foolish to think that with the amount they breed that all those pups are brought out of their dungeon to see the world. You would pick up the same type in a pound without parting with a small fortune for a mongrel. Quote Link to post
