I’ll agree with you shark way to much head work going on In the early crosses

Any of the two will do the job long as you go steady on the collie in the mix to much collie in my eyes is a bad thing in modern times as the feckers are to temperamental just a drop 1/4 or less is more than enough be it lamping or ferreting mooching id go with bearded collie if I had to choose just for the bit of coat they offer

Bird your never to old mate for another dog I’m a firm believer in if you stop what your passion is (dogs) then your body will also slow up it’s the dogs that give you motivation to keep going they need walks/mooches/hunting.....definitely bedlington x greyhound mate keep you on your toes

Gutted pal least you had a nice long drive to think of such school boy errors!! if it makes you feel any better the dog used at stud wouldn’t be far off the age some of these real dog men (or at least that’s what they give the impression and tell everyone on here) would use. The breeding sounds a bit hunting life as well mate made up to peddle on bet they were tested dogs bred to keep a pup back for there selfs lol...I won’t piss take ya fella but it’s a hard lesson learned hopefully someone decent sees your post an hooks you up something decent bred An correctly reared I used to look at som

Interesting reply’s to my post it’s been really interesting reading it all thanks lads/lasses for the input????I have found it interesting in the fact people saying so mutch shit being bred out there but so many people happy to use young studs just because there showing being good at the time With them being young and reckless in there manor of how they work as being good I’m still a believer in age an experience with good form throughout there career over any thing else is the way forward for me I’m not saying my way of thinking is the right way but it’s stood me in good stead thinking this w

What happened to the dog dan?
-
Mate I get what your saying in a sense but if your only breeding for your self (not like half the f**k witts that are in it to peddle)an you have no interest in swapping dogs out every couple of season what’s the rush I mean you could easily over dog ones self fast if you breed at that rate An work rate to any dog would drop of over dogged.

I’m very upset now ???
-
In my eyes yes but I can’t speak for others but I’d breed from a bitch that’s 6 yrs old An have done as a first litter

I know you were blackneck ??
-
Wise words mate ??
-
I know it all mate an done it all an have all the t shirts in all different sizes ?? mate I have as much knowledge that can be put on the back of a postal stamp ?? But one day I’d like to think that when the time comes to hang the slip lead up for the last time I’ll have enough knowledge to fill the hole stamp book ????

Good man Phil ??

I’m not trying to be a one track minded smart ass that thinks his opinion is the only opinion that is correct I’m a very open minded guy I take all on bored if it makes sense but I’m just trying to pick the mines of the more experienced to take onboard any information I’m in the mine if you don’t ask you don’t get an useful information is always handy from the experienced guys I think this is were most working dog lads go wrong there afraid to ask questions In fear of making there self look less a dog men
-
Maybe I could try ask the question worded different: with a young stud dog you intend to breed from how whould you try An gauge on what’s underlying in the dog or any future problems that may show its self a little further on in the working career of the dog
-
I get what your saying mate but some of these dogs up at stud there not interested in a pup out the litter it’s the money generated there interested in From the stud point of view but I sort of get what your saying from a bitch point of view but isn’t that just the gamble you have to take same as every night/day you take the dog out to work it could be it’s last but breeding from a young stud if your bitch is good isn’t it the same chances of the bitch dieing on the job as breeding a good un from that bitch out of a young stud.....maybe I over think stuff lol I do get what your saying though
-
Phil I respect your opinion ??But how are you going to tell from a young stud just by what you see on the day if traints you don’t like that could manifest could be passed on or under laying like pulling up/picking runs a complete throw in the towel I thought with breeding your own replacements your trying to iron out any problems that might occur later down the line to see if the dogs a good un or not for future breeding of replacements what’s your thoughts Phil I know your a experienced guy

At what age do you lot think in your opinion is a correct age for a dog to be offered as a stud dog to Woking bitches my opinion is the dog as to be no younger than 6yrs old with a good track record of good form of the dogs trade. I see a lot of dogs younger from 2-4yrs old some as young as a year old I’m struggling to see the point in breeding anything from these dogs nothing more than producing a litter. Give us your opinions on how you do things?
