  1. I have a 3/4 welsh sheepdog 1/4 acd.  I think she would make a fair ferreting dog, but I can't see any advantage to not having any running dog.... If you just want a marker and a net guarder bring the old dog out of retirement

  2. I've got one for work (I'm a keeper) and they are handy, I use mine with the rifle, but I always take it lamping with the lurcher too. Handy for getting up to lampshy quarry, and also useful for keeping light disturbance down when free lancing!  Had an hour stand off when me and the head keeper were eyeballing each other from across a valley.... happy days!

  3. Call me a jesse, had too much heart ache with rock earths...... these days unless I NEED the fox dead i leave him in there! But that's because there are few rocky spots on my ground, further north (or west) the ground and the lads are tougher than me!

     

  4. Years a ago I had a welsh collie x greyhound. she  was a good bitch and took a lot of game with her. welsh collies are generally more independent than border collies and get on with the job instead of looking for instruction. I don't know whether this trait makes a difference when breeding lurchers?
