Kelpie or ACD crosses compared to Collie

I had a jack russel that would do that Neal. One memorable day she was half way down a hole and i tried to tail her out but she wouldnt budge, so i got down put my arm through her legs and my hand was on her chest and tried to pull her out that way. just as i heaved i heard and felt a snap so thinking the worst and not knowing what i had broken i continued to pull. out comes snoopy with a tree root in her mouth the little b*****d was hanging on!!

 

No idea how to get your bitch to stop doing that i used to let a shot off if snoopy dissapeared she would soon come back to find out what was going on. i guess you will have tried the more obvious things but maggie will do anything for a treat so re call isnt a problem. she caught a water hen this morning and retrieved it over 200 m which was good to see but i have a neighbour with ducks and chickens that free range everywhere so im not looking forward to the first "retrieved" chicken or duck!!

A friend of ours has a Kelpie....she's a t**t too....totally hyper and if there's nothing to do, she just stands and barks.

He says she's a very good worker, but his wife doesn't like her much, she has quarrels with his other bitches all day long....the Kelpie, not his wife.
