Im in county durham mate. Yer started her at 13 month, she picked it up straight away. Follows beam, runs to end every timr. Had experience with dear and fox, looking promising, very game. Had a fair few hares on lamp and 1 daytime

Thanks for that FH.

 

I've not known any bedlington lurchers with decent coats but your one looks like it's got a decent jacket.

 

Most have been linty things that soak through at the slightest drizzle and pick up debris like a magnet.

 

Might be the lakey blood in there?

here you go stabs this is what he looks like when he's had a brush through him. only taken about 8 months ago, i've never had a problem with his coat work wize seems to do the job quite well. he get 2 cuts a year 1 near the end of summer and one the start of summer.

Thats a cracking dog you got there fence hopper

I'm a 3/4 collie man myself but would like to see 2 3/4 's of the above breeding crossed for certain quarry. I like the brains in my dog's but like fence hopper says sometimes too clever and certainly not point and shoot dogs.

colie x does it for me not keen on bedlington x's

[all.rounder 3]

collie x gray for me, but a belly x is a very very close second

[Tiny 7 1,694]

Thats all i keep are BeddyX's so i would say Beddyx's,,

 

Seen some very good colliex's tho,

But the ones iv seen could sometimes be a bit to clever for there on good,

And could be a bit soft (I dont mean soft on game) more if you raise your voice then start skulking away type thing,

 

What work's for one wont work for the other

Each to there own

Good point Tiny 7 collie x's do require a certain type of handler. i.e. a patient and forgiving type
