Neal 1,857 Posted July 31, 2008 Report Share Posted July 31, 2008 I wouldn't be surprised if the average farm/sheep/cattle dog catches more game than the average lurcher. My kelpies catch just as much as my previous lurchers it's just that they catch in different ways and in different situations ie my kelpies catch more in cover whereas the lurchers caught more in the open. Many years ago I had a 3/4 collie 1/4 greyhound from Hancock's third litter of Richard x Linnet and he was a great dog with a wonderful, laid back disposition. Some people like collies and collie crosses and some people don't. Personally I do but I can fully understand and sympathise with those who don't. I sometimes wonder if it's because I'm a primary school teacher as you need a lot of patience for both kids and collies. Quote Link to post
