Ideation 8,216 Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 It's been ages since i've really been on here. . . . so my memories are hazy. . . . . but i'm sure that there are a few folk on here, keeping the above type of dog. I am wondering if anyone out there, keeps, or knows of, a very good line of collie/bull/greys. . . . . Something fast, strong, good stamina, driven, biddable, good temp etc, good feet, good nose, good heart. . . . . no smaller than 25/26 " tts. Anyone? P.S Not looking for a pup, but may be looking for a lining one day and doing my home work. Quote Link to post

the trunk 2,859 Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Av collie bull mate av a topic up of this season on the other page black and white dog mate 2 Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted March 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Gnipper - Of course, had forgotten about dai. Do they not have some saluki in? Trunk - I've read the thread. I must say, a very accomplished fox dog. I've been impressed. How fast are they? Odd question, and i'm not knocking a fox in the lamp, but you know what I mean? What's their pace and stamina like, if you had them out all day running hard, big runs, long slips etc. 1 Quote Link to post
snizle06 202 Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Big runs long slips I think you need a drop of saluki Quote Link to post
kirstysdad 827 Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Have one here he has been good dog no special lines just worker to worker done 8 full seasons will be putting him over my collie greyhound bitch this season to get a pup for myself and a couple of mates who also want one from him 2 Quote Link to post
the trunk 2,859 Posted March 16, 2015 Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 To be fair mate av seen him run some good long courses and he can stay but not like a running dog can hes smart an will work a hare he gets up into it will find it hard to shake him but by no means is he a hare dog. Lifts foxes day time no problem at all he gets a turn into it its dead but as you no hes a fox dog mate thats my game mate 1 Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted March 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Thanks for the reply Trunk. That sounds like a very handy dog. KD - Sounds a very interesting mating. Snizle - The bitch that I may one day line has a drop of saluki, and its just about all of the saluki i can take. . . . never again P.S I have no interest in catching hares, but it's handy to know that a dog has pace and gears, whatever you are chasing, you need to get to it to catch it. And local to me, the rabbits are really tough to get on top of, can really make it hard work at times. Quote Link to post

I know exactly how hes bred, right down to the 1/16 riddlington bedlington in him. Only fault is it can be too keen for my likeing at times No world beater but no duck egg, would not like to think I had to replace him. No fee at all. 3 Quote Link to post
Ideation 8,216 Posted March 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 16, 2015 Can I add something to this thread - I wouldn't mind seeing some photos, especially of the dogs already mentioned. The x works in my head, but I could do with seeing what the variables are, in size / stamp, if that makes sense? Quote Link to post

Forgot to say I owned and worked his mother for 6 seasons and new his farther since he was 9 month old who died after he went over a wall with ledge on the other side while coursing approx 5year old.
