you are right regards retrieving  , some running  dogs never will bring back it quarry. most of my colliexs were not bad retrievers  , bryn brought back from  80-100yds or more , but as he got older it  dropped few yards, my best retriever ever got to be Buck , he never really had much training i think it was natural in him. i had lurcherx lurcher bitch  90% greyhound  drop of whippet/ collie   she bring back  but put rabbit down  5 yrds  short, i do think me self with pure  sight hounds  , it dont come natural to them, some do  but  lots dont. most it just catch/kill  .

My young bitch put a coney down to get better hold ,she not make same mistake again .

she brings to hand but in company of other dog no chance .
