Shortstraw 473 Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 What collie traits bother you lot ? I know they can be jealous and sensitive, but I’ve never really had that problem personally, scared of loud bangs yes. I wouldn’t personally have another border collie half cross. Not due to any quirks of their personality just the fact Ive found border collies to vary so much in their enthusiasm to seek game out in places where it’s a bit thin on the ground. I’ve had a couple of keen hunters and a couple who didn’t really hunt that instinctively....which drove me mad. 1 Quote Link to post

Don't suit me or I them, I like a simple terrier/bull x and it suits me....but as said each to their own, I'm sure loads of decent ones with decent owners. Good shout there Joe. They can’t all be bad. I’ve seen a few decent ones. Maybe it’s more to the fact that Some people don’t suit the breed rather than them all being useless! 4 Quote Link to post

SheepChaser 8,082 Posted January 12, 2021 Report Share Posted January 12, 2021 Its a bit like a 1st x bull x. Bull x grey hound. . . . . most greyhounds are fast, but a lot of bulls are shit. Collie x grey . . . . . most greys are fast, but f**k me most collies are mental weirdo c**ts who have no place in the hunting world. Get the right one and the x would be mustard. And I suppose years ago maybe a lot more collies were the 'right' type. Ive caught most stuff by accident with the collies, and watching them and how they react, you can see which ones suit breeding a runner, and most dont. Sure they kill stuff, but so would most dogs if in their favour. 2 Quote Link to post
