Can i ask why you think a child that "smells" like a diabetic would awaken the herding instincts in a part collie blood dog?!!?! :icon_eek: :icon_eek:

 

In my experience, the most common reason that collie types will obsessively herd . . . . . is boredom and lack of exercise.

 

Even full collies from working stock can be stopped of this behaviour with training , exercise and a channeling of their work mentality. :thumbs:

Very true a dogs sense of smell is used for various medical/disability dogs, most commonly to detect fits before they happen in suffers of epilepsy.

 

My point was, i just find it very hard to believe that a dog would react in that way, especially a puppy, ONLY because it is detecting a different scent from a diabetic child. I am the first to admit that collie blooded dogs can and often do have weird/abnormal obsessions, however i have yet to see or hear of one that can not be corrected through training.

 

Anyway . . good luck homing the dog. :thumbs:

asking for some money also makes sure the new owner are more l;ikely to the funds to look after the dog as well
