Dog pics

I've been looking at a 1-1/2 yr old rescue Border Collie, I've had numerous breeds, including now a Cattle Dog, but never a Border Collie. I can keep it active enough, I'm not worried about that, but I hear mixed thoughts on the breed. It has been with a rehab rescue lady for 6 months but was pulled out of a dog hoarding situation, then adopted to two city families not used to working dogs, then ended up in the pound. We meet the dog next weekend and the rescue lady says the dog has really blossomed, getting along tremendously with her dogs, hasn't ever messed in the house and accepts new people cautiously. Any thoughts?

If I didn't have shepherds I would have Border Collies. Nice dogs, keep them active and you wont find a better breed IMO. I am partial to German Shepherds because they are here to protect and be part of my family but the protection part is the most important to me living here in the woods, they tell me what's going on at all times and are at the ready to do whatever is needed. It's in there blood to do what I need them to do..

Here is a pic on one of my dogs. He is such a pleasure to take on walks in the woods. I love my shorthairs but this dog is the smartest I've ever seen.

He's part Australian Shepherd, Blue Heeler and Cattle dog.

Two Shar Pei rescues. I drove them home from Los Angeles to Wisconsin. One blue heeler (cattle dog) from the local shelter.

You can find the most amazing dogs from a shelter or rescue. We got two beautiful and high end Springer bird dogs in a rescue thing. Smart, clever, obedient and loyal. Best dogs we ever had.

Absolutely true. I will never get a dog anywhere else.

Just don't tell them they don't have a pedigree and they'll never have to know it.

My three running across our field on New Year's Day. From left to right: Glenlivet, Kazoo, and Tulliver



And Tulliver with his happy face after I told him we were riding the sidecar to the Rockies this summer!

There is something both peaceful and exhilarating about seeing dogs romp in fresh snow. Nice pic and nice dogs!
