trenchfoot 4,243 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 How much collie do you want? 6 Quote Link to post
trenchfoot 4,243 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 The last pic will do me Your welcome to him. Its the wifes dog and far too sensitive for me. Quote Link to post
trenchfoot 4,243 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Does he do any farm work? Drives sheep and cattle. Won't shift pigs though. He's happy to be out with the lurchers, good nose and opens up on quarry. Which is a useful asset at times. 2 Quote Link to post
Neal 1,857 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Share Posted August 24, 2015 Bird, although you could argue that kelpies are a strain of collie they're not a strain of border collie and were in fact registered as a breed before border collies became a registered breed. I guess it's more precise to say that kelpies and border collies are both descended from the same roots but went different ways. I've found all my kelpies have many collie traits but are definitely different. I'd say the main difference is their tendency to need less instruction and to prefer to work off their own initiative. They're also more likely to question your instructions if they disagree with you. I've had to be more open minded when working them and allow them to learn by making their own mistakes rather than constantly stepping in to tell them what to do. Quote Link to post
