I hadn't seen a bearded collie for years then I saw a lady taking two for a walk! What beautiful dogs!but made me think...what's happened to them!!!
I do not know if I have ever seen one so did a Google Image search and found this... I think he had been trying to audition for the part of Chewbacca!
Quite a few working Beardies in the Obedience rings - and their breed classes are usually well filled at Champ. shows. Perhaps it's a regional thing, but here are three within 100 yds. of where I'm sitting.
I'm going back very many years now, but I can remember seeing one Beardie at Crufts in the Obedience Ring - Scapa, if I remember rightly. There was also one at my local club - never ever stopped barking, even when it had a dumbbell in its mouth! But I have to say it's a very long time since I've seen one.
Lol yes very much like chew baca..maybe their fashionable year is yet to come.seems to be a different breed every so often everyone has! Since I've had my husky I see them everywhere!
There's a couple by me, and we were in Cornwall a couple of weeks ago, and we saw a couple with 5 , plus I see plenty at dog shows and ringcraft.
