What's arf mate ?

Hi all went and got my first lurcher pup today she's a collie grey , sorry pics are crap I'm really landed with her , think she may need a little feeding up tho , think she is just slightly on the slim side , she is 10 weeks old , going to slowly change her over to complete puppy food as she is on adult at the mo , any suggestions for any thing I can supplement the complete food with to help her put a little weight on ?

To be honest the size doesn't worry me 2 much already have a large air dale bitch she about 26tts , but where we walk most days the are plenty of rabbits and the dog would be able to mouch and hunt up quite a lot , just prob only be once maybe twice a week full day ferreting , but hoping to start on the lamp when the pup is big enough , prob get out a lot more then as my family are all in bed early and I'm always out with the dog in the night now Do you think that would be enough for a collie x ?, really do like the collie x's , it's the intelligence and obedience level that can be achiev

Hi all just wondering what your thoughts are on this x , do they have the speed to make good rabbit dogs in most situations , any opinions appreciated thanks If any one has some pics of this x would be great

Horses for courses ay mate , I think I could make much more use out of a fast agile dog that will take small edible game

Think your right mate , I'm going to go for summit good and racy, summit sharp for boulters day time mouching and working the lamp for bunnies , I'd rather have a dog that's going to perform in these areas than one that will do ok but take the od smelly

Lovely dog mate what he x with

Supersam , how much of each sal whip grey is in your dog mate ? There a litter near me of saluki/whip/grey not sure how they are bred yet but if they going to be anything like yours I'd be happy to have one Is it usual of a dog of this breeding to take fox or is it just in him ?
-
To be honest temperament has been vary much on my mind also, as I would like the dog to be a part of the family as well as a working dog , and for that reason I am not really wanting any thing with much if any bull in it at all , my childrens safety is paramount

Think you might be a little out of my way mate but thanks All the same

I understand and appreciate what you are saying , have done a lot of reading and planing kennel is neally finished out the garden. I will admit tho have seen vary few dogs working , but looking for mainly a rabbit dog , in ideally I'd like a 1/4 collie grey but I now there are plenty of other dogs that will suet my needs and that's y i thought there no need to limit my self to the one kind of x's

Not really sure what I'm looking for to be honest it's gona be my first lurcher, i don't plan on having more than one so would like a bit of an all rounder , but mainly rabbits ferreting and mooching day time , and hoping do some lamp work 2, I would like summit that would take the old smelly on the od occasion but I suppose that's not essential really , deff want a bitch and as young as possible really as I have small kids and would feel better if I had a pup that has grown up with them Been looking at collie/greys And saluki/greys. But No hard and fast really just don't want a big

Supersam that is a fine dog

That is a good shout mate , will have to ask around Don't want to upset any one but I was under the impresions that suluki gray would not put up with the sharp end ? And that they don't listen well ? I must admit the sal/bull/grays I've seen on here do look the bissnes and seem to get good reports Collie/gray x bull/gray sound like a good

Ideally I am looking for a 1/4collie gray bitch as this seems to be a popular choice as an "all rounder" but I'm sure there are plenty of other x's that will do the job So I thought I could maybe widen my search and look for other x's instead of just collie x But I would like to now what other crosses I should look out for that will meet my need also, I want a dog for ferreting, day time mooching, and lamping rabbits, and can also take the sharp end

Thanks

Hi mate where to are you living please ?

Being new to the sport I have no contacts , was hoping some one could put me onto some one with a planned litter or one on the way
-
Lol I can see this becoming quite a debate , any one now of any litters other than hancocks ?
-
Just had a look at his website , first think that I noticed is all his stud dogs are Merls , is this because merl pups sell faster or more expensive ?

I think I need to do some reading on this Hancock as he seems to get some vary mixed views
