You reckon a gsd x better then bill

Way better I have plenty experience of both I own a little tiny bitch of alsation X greyhound and she five eights three eiths back to half ,she totally has more of those we fetched and this the thing night after night not needing nights in recovering ,the f1 alsation grey on the whole are superior ask bird he will no doubt tell yas same and he only had one two go by but he had a few collie xes types..the alsation type on the whole has a tougher mental outlook attitude that plus the power and plenty speed on the f1 of bred right.,I know there's lots of mixes of cur types with bull etc ,bug they don't count we talking Hancock stuff. and for what it's worth f1 collie X don't compare simple ,working whippets bred today will do what they do and lots even more.atb bill

I often read threads concerning collie crosses with a degree of confusion . More to do with the sometimes negative comments that relate to the border collie , and often mention is made of the far supe

After many a wasted trip to see so called collie x greyhound litters I decided to go to Hancocks for a pup, she is entering her 6 season now, and is a credit to my team, she has supplied us with some

I think you are right there Roybo... I shall always keep my own home-bred, watered down Collie hybrids, they suit me for the ground I hunt over, but most lads coming into the game today seem to w

Not being rude but your dog had what 1/16 beardy in it ? i had a half cross out of remus in the 80s and its temp was spot on. ive seen a fair few border crosses that were headbangers.

No, my dog dog was 1/8th beardie, and that was too much FOR ME!  Honestly mate, seen loads over the years, and the LESS beardie in em the better. Your 1/2 cross beardie/grey might've been a cracking dog, but I'll bet bet a pound to a pinch of shit he was one of the exceptions

I normally take a lot of what you say in bill. But you're talking absolute shite here. 

Bird's buck seems a nice dog, but I remember the pics of his dam.  Weak as f**k pasterns, and not the best physically looking gsd bitch that I've seen by a long way. And I like my gsd's, so I do actually know what I'm looking at, and what 'I'd look for. And that bitch WOULDN'T be what I'd be looking for.

?Beardies and their ilk,...are wonderful working dogs,...but, in my opinion,..if you fancy a raggle-taggle collie type, it pays to secure the services of a strong working type.

Such animals might be found on various holdings,..they are frequently not pure pedigree, .some are more akin to the old style concept of a Drover's dog, ..some look really shabby, nondescript critters,.nevertheless,..you have the luxury of seeing them at their work...

Facts are,..they are usually kept for a reason...?

i know someone who has worked Beardies for years and still does. ive had a look at the odd ped he has and the odd border collie pops up now and then in the lines through a 6 gen ped.

My mistake and apologies put it down to age ? i had it in my head Taffy was 1/8 instead of a 1/4 beardy. I dont know of my dog being the exception to the rule ive talked to a good number of people who had pups out of the muirhead dog remus and they were pleased. Maybe the original stud richard jones was the root of temperament peculiarities you experienced.. But we wont argue im too long in the tooth and old.We can only express our own opinions and experiences.?

No blacky, not slating bird's dog or gsd x's, but the choice of it's dam could've been a physically better specimen ?

thats fair enough mate, yeh  the dam  pasterns  were down abit true, the reason i liked her  though  was good hips, strong long back , and great temp, we knew  Razz  Buck sire  was very good  mid distance greyhound , and all running dogs  will norm sort out most other defects  in other breeds. 2 vets told this as well, that Buck be more healthy than any pure gsd  . Being honest here now ,  if colliex greys   had the same temp as a gsd x grey , i would have stuck with them , thats not just Bryn , thats all the others ive had over the years, they lack the guts = bottle  of a gsd    fact . i dont think there many breeds as healthy as a collie or kellpie   they had lot to lurcher line , old Bryn still going great at near ll year old  . funny thing is back then  12 years as ago i wanted a collie x grey x pit x gey ,  that give similar temp i think  to gsd x grey , but not many people were breeding this type x bxk then it was either , a pit x grey , or collie x grey , so ended up with Bryn  1 x collie x grey, been great rabbit dog day and night  , but lacked  Buck grit for other  stuff . gsd are not really a healthy breed  in general  , with poor hips  , shoulder probs , but as said the greyhound or the lurcher norm  helps it out, Buck  fast, agile , good wind when fit , and handle bangs/ bumps  easy , and great temp  with people, dogs  , but switches on to his quarry  .   good lamping dog  and done well  in his 6 years .
