3/4 bull/greyhound v 3/4 collie/greyhound

[neil b 2,266]

i am thinking ov getting a lurcher pup in the next few months and just wanted to hear the fors and againsts for each cross i will be hunting mostly rabbits and fox

[collie/grey 238]

I have both, not much difference between the two, the bull x is more headstrong, the collie x uses her brain more, if your going to get more rabbit than fox get a collie x, or bull x if more fox.

ive always had small lurcher crosses then went for the collie* greyhounds and found them good for all quarry but my mates have bull crosses and i find these excellent and excell at everything its horses for courses and whatever catches your eye i suppose

not a big fan of bull cross..... but everyone has their own preferences...... in fact, the young dog i have now has a very small amount of bull in him and is not showing any of the "typical" bull traits..... he's good with the kids and does what i tell him, except retrieve little shit...... sure i'll get him sorted when he's nailing bunny's

 

if you want stamina,,,go for collie x

if you want jaw power,,,go for bull x

hello rabbit hunter....typical bull traits? ,...just curious as to what they are?

 

 

 

neil b,....with reference to the dogs your wanting, is it 3/4 bull and 3/4 collie bred dogs your wanting or did you mean 3/4 greyhound?

 

as imo even though the reverse 3/4 bred dogs will have there uses, you will be limited with them.
