few reason.iv had a few pups out of good parents but not allways made the grade, iv all so had pups out of shit dogs that have made the grade.iv got a 2 year bull x dog. and a 4 year bull x saluki x.bitch.,both doing what i want, but really want a coliie cross, so why not try,, iv got 2 hopes. i would want to keep at lest 2 pups. i really think she will bring good in to pups as she is a cracking dog, even if she wont pick up,, but she was not bread for that, and why not take a gamble, is it not always.
