good thread above, like you say you can only judge any dog on what you owned your self. my take on it is that the collie gene quite strong gene either at 1/4 or 4/8 , and from having 1xs my self , and seeing a 1/4 collie work , i really do think a 1/4 plenty in a lurcher you still get good feet coat, brain , stamina, but the big one is the collie temp will be watered down, which i think good think. the coward thing, is what been said on here, that they think to much about the job at hand, say pre ban if you was doing bit of fox control , if the dog been pecked few times before , they not ove

how about 1/4 wheaten x 3/4 grey or 1/4 wheaten x 3 /4 lurcher , reckon from good stuff you get good alrounder

my mate had one few years ago, it was 1/4 b/b x 3/4 grey from Hancock kennels mid 80s, big tall fawn dog, looked more like deerhound x grey, but it 100% 1/4 b/b x 3/4 grey. it had few hares in the day, good lamping rabbits ad had few foxes as well, real good type x, plenty of brain and not bad feet/coat , not like 1x , but still plenty good enough. prob is today is getting this type x, as hancock finished , so fook knows where you find one .?
