Breedia Dog Forum
My very show bred but very agility obsessed border collie, Alfie. We can't compete much due to my work commitments but I don't think being show bred...
Awww what a cutie, lovely face. What is his/her name?
Hiya Lynn, can't offer any advice re: berneses but just to say don't beat yourself up about Ollie's breeder, I've been in a similar situation and you...
And so to some, are seen as the 'cheaper' option? I'm not saying this is a good thing at all, but sadly it's the way the world works.
My dog was £450, I think show lines are generall about £400-500, and I'd imagine sports are about the same? I can't be certain.
I agree with this. I also think the ideal situation would be some sort of national list/society/rescue, whatever you want to call it, which can link...
It's so difficult and I think the world of Border Collies is full of politics and conflicting views. I feel the main problem is a lack of acceptance...

I'm the same, I never recommend Border Collies to other people but I wouldn't be without one myself, why is that? Haha. I wish more people were...

I'd say do away with the papers & the mats, and just have him go outside. You're doing right by going out every hour, but if you're coming in and 5...
Could it be that a game of chase got a bit out of hand? I know sometimes if we run around my boy will chase after and a puppy might have got...
^ I agree with that mish, mental stimulation is so important. I'd say it's totally up to you. My first dog was a BC x by chance, we just wanted a...
Well I have a 10 year old BC x and an almost 2 full BC. They get a good off-lead run every day, and my older girl tends to sleep the rest of the day....
I agree with Stevie :D My girl is more independent, she likes a stroke and a cuddle, but my boy lives for it. He's such a softy and loves everyone....
I think Border Collies need to be bred for their brain, that's what they're famous for after all. This is my main problem with Show-lines, while...
Does it have to be an NI? :lol: My border collie loves learning tricks, but just doesn't have the same enthusiasm for his comp obed stuff, like...
