He will probably be looking for a while yet!

Be like most things - get real popular and fashionable in the Lurcher world, but you pretty much never ever see a working or genuine ACD.........

I'm gifting my merle bitch to a good lad that likes the breed at the weekend , I can live with her being a bit sensitive at time but she's not got enough drive for me, like you said never again but I said the same 30 years ago lol.

Tbh she’s not a bad bitch compared to some I’ve seen that’s why I’ve kept hold of her all summer but she’s just not my kind of running dog so I’ll see if I have more luck with my pup with only a 1/6 in her
