Australian cattle dog

[AJP 1]

hi is there anyone running anything with Australian cattle dog in the mix? if so how have they turned out?

I had an Australian Cattle Dog crossed with a small lurcher. She was incredibly loyal and easily trained. Was too slow for anything except lamping, but was the best companion dog I ever had.

well a bloke on here done very well with this type x , for lamping  and mooching   rabbits, suppose if you wanted quicker type dog ,  maybe cattle dog x  grey x  whippet x grey , or back to coursing type dog.  my self i not keen on the herding type xs, but i reckon the acdx would be a better x than the border or kelpie , but thats just me other people  might think different  lol

Ive never had a pup with so much muscle as her at her age seem to be very robust type

Wishing I'd of had one now, there's not enough game on the ground to justify one but it's getting time to have another, time waits for no man..........or dog

Her sire is a proper all rounder, whether it's sitting on a gun peg, picking up,  being in the beating line or working with the terriers and lamp. His downfall is his pace, he's only got one gear,  but then he was never going to be a speed merchant. 

He still enjoys what he does and he's brilliant company whether it's out in the field or in the house.
