Collie Heavy Lurcher Question

[forest of dean redneck 12,023]

I always have a nose at hancocks to see what he's breeding and noticed the litter of 7/8 collie 1/8 grey, now I know he's bred these to get a replacement stud, and I'm not really into the puppy farming ,too slow won't catch shit etc debates,

I thought with a fair few knowledgable dog men and a few herding dog users on here I would ask,

Just out of interest would there be much of an advantage of speed or a gain over a pure collie ?

1/8 greyhound is hardly going to be noticeable and in my opinion will bring nothing to the table ............

Wow quick reply lol

That was my thinking ,they are bound to want same price as their lurchers which is what £200?

Yet you can buy plenty collie pups for £80/100 and will be short coated long legged etc

His half crosses I can understand but that litter no.

I know that they are breeding a lot of dogs for the agility people ... Maybe the litter is for them ??? .........

It's to replace his Alex stud dog , pups are beardie/border grey mix.

The theory behind it is if you breed the 3/4 collie back to a greyhound, you get a 5/8 greyhound, which would have more pace than a than a straight 50/50 cross with more brains than a 1/4 collie. Anyone got experience of breeding this cross? Does the theory work in the real world?
