colliejohn 840 Posted November 1, 2008 Report Share Posted November 1, 2008 (edited) Sniper, are you thinking about writing a book about collie cross types, not being funny pal, but you ask alot of questions about different types and strains, that are being bred, and about information regarding people who breed them etc, have you had no luck in your search for a collie lurcher yet, you couldn,t get any better breeding than the litter i put you onto. regards collie john.

Hi pal, best of luck with your choice, not having a dig at you, but was curious as to why you were asking so many questions, i personally would get a pup off someone who works their dogs, and who breeds out of genuine working lines. regards collie john.
