Everything that comes threw now seem to resemble collie and bull TBH for some reason the ones that resemble the collies make the best animals or at least the ones that suite me.

They have the bull drive and the temperament and brains of the collie, like I said they suite me.

I have seen some decent animals with coursing blood in, but soon as they bred off they throw coursing saluki types because the saluki gene is so strong..... ending off with dogs that push which is exactly what I despise in any lurcher.

Yeah 100% more dogs do it than what most think aswell dont they. what it is though can only piss with the cory ya got. But the way i want to go with dogs rather keep a couple with none in then maybe a little sport dog carrying abit to messabout with on open ground when the fancy takes me. Takes a man with more skill than me to breed a chancy dog for everything but everything seems to carry abit of coursing dog now.
