will.f11 24 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 i cant promise any pictures but i will try and take some one day. before that dog they had a blind working collie. he eventually went blind even though he was young but he had had a year or 2 at my uncles farm beforehand and he worked like a fully sighted dog. he would bring the cows in at top speed and would never runinto anything. he would know everything off by heart but eventually he bit my aunty a couple of times and had to be put down. it was a great shame as he was a much loved working dog.

rabbit tourmentor 29 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 looks like a springer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
huntergatherer 0 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 collie x springer, mother was pure collie and father was also collie x springer but all white with brown ears. hence a loon tune but a very intelligent one! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DIGZY 4 Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 I had a working border collie a few years ago when a worked on the dairy farm he never worked sheep but could handle the cows no problem he would sit on the back of the quad bike (EVEN WHEN A WAS DRIVING) lol he was also great at ratting when we were milking he would go find a rat dig it out they come down the byre with the tail wagging it the show of collie manner also youse to take him out with the lurchers and if you had a place where you thought the rabbit would head a would tell him to lie bown and he would nab any rabbits that went his way sadly we parted when a stoped working at the fam as this dog was bred to work and a just new he would miss working so he went to a farmer friend and is now a really good farm dog self trained aswell Quote Link to post Share on other sites

littlefish 587 Posted September 9, 2008 Report Share Posted September 9, 2008 Any pictures of decent working collies that aren't hyper or sly biting b*****ds? What about the ones that hide in hedges and jump out to bite the wheels of passing cars and biles? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
