Nickms 60 Posted November 12, 2021 Author Report Share Posted November 12, 2021 (edited) Sire was pure collie. That's not the dam in the pics. She's off a few years of mostly collie crosses IV bred myself over the years but the collie that I like in mine is getting a bit diluted, The dam to these pups also has a bit of everything in them. Large amount of greyhound. Little bit of Saluki and collie in there. Just a handy little bitch. Edited November 12, 2021 by Nickms Can't spell 1 Quote Link to post

Merl's blend in well if there isn't to much white. Think some don't like the defective gene maybe? Quote Link to post

It reminds me of one of those photos where you have to spot the leopard, giraffe, gecko etc. Quote Link to post

I only do a wee bit of Mouching after the odd rabbit and Roe, so I don't really need much of a performance dog or high class jukel... I just use a roustabout cur, and live in hopes Certain colours attract me,.. don't know WHY,.. but, I stopped trying to figure it out, many years ago Spots or Speckles,...I find them all,...interesting.... Stay safe now lads,...kind regards, OldPhil. Edited December 19, 2021 by OldPhil 3 Quote Link to post

Stay safe now lads,...kind regards, OldPhil. Is this one of your ACD crosses? Looks a handy little kur. I bred a couple of ACD bitches a good few years ago. One to one of my heavy blood collie types. Another. To a nice big racey pedigree unknown. This one (out of collie lurcher) was strong an driven as they come but a nightmare round other dogs. A pup out the other went up north an excelled at the ferreting game. Edited November 12, 2021 by Nickms ? 5 Quote Link to post
