I agree. I have Chihuahuas and they are very "terrier-like"...which is what the standard calls for!:popcorn:

Here is my bitch "holding" the sheep....

Here is my male....we were working these sheep and this one ewe in particular had been giving all the dogs a problem. Well, Jett took it upon himself to show her who was boss...he got right up in her face (after she had tried to head-butt every dog all dog) and moved her like this. After this...

Here are a couple of pics of my Border Collies working...I have three and all three are mostly Borderfame bloodlines with the exception of my merle that also has Sportingfield's which is also mostly Borderfame. Borderfame is a big show kennel out of Australia. All of my dog's work sheep. I...

I never said she was put through the ringer here, it is a fact that most breeders are put through the ringer by people they come into contact with on a daily basis. I know because I deal with it daily. I am a professional dog groomer that works in a upscale "mom and pop" pet store and 70% of...

Well thanks Poodlemommy! If I can figure out how to get some pics on here I will. I want to change my siggy pics at least.......

I know this breeder personally....she is very friendly and accessable (although probably not right now as she is at Westminster!)...

I don't think it was as much rude as it was defensive. Read into it what you will.....you have to remember that everyday responsible breeders are put throught the ringer because of the behaviors and practices of BYB and puppymillers. When most people come across a "breeder" they automatically...

I have to say...gorgeous Pap!!!!

I don't think MsB's response to the "have you worked with her?" question was meant to come accross as rude....I think she is just frustrated because she HAS worked with this bitch. And I really don't think she is here to plug her site...after all what would she be trying to "plug"? The puppies...

OK....I'm not going to get into a third grade fight here but I never claimed that you said my dogs weren't well bred. You said you know some well-bred BC as do I. The ones with this common temperament seem to be all the ones I know from varying breeders those of which are well known. I'm not...

I never said unsocial...please don't put words in my mouth. My bitch has her CGC and does alot of therapy work. She also can be taken anywhere and socialize with any dog. When it comes to her personnal space though, she can be a little stingy with it, but not destructive. And of course there...

Hello all....I don't post much as I am a full time groomer and mom...and the slave of several Border Collies and Chihuahuas. I have posted a couple times but not enough to make anyone remember me. Anyway, I have been involved in the sport of pure-bred dogs for 18 years now....I have had Border...

Mine is derived from my old, recently passed Golden/Brittney mix named Amber. She was 18 when we put her down this past year. When she was younger, she used to lie on the grond and let the Chihuahuas run all over her. So, I changed the spelling of "lay" to "leigh" to make it different and...

Depends on what you are looking for in a Border Collie?? What are you looking for defines where you look. I know of many show type breeders that have dogs that can work too.
