I have a 3year old reg border collie called Buddy, dont do showing or anything, about to begin this year though. He's from a working sheepdog farm, and his uncle was Welsh Champion.

soz this is the only one i had on my photobucket lol.
 
We live in a farming area and it amazes me to see border collies travelling in the back of open pick-up trucks. The trucks can be parked in town and the dogs don't move. How do they train that?
 
My collie is a rescue and working stock, she was starved and beaten and even with all the problems we have had i would never be without a collie (had her 12yrs). In fact she is very ill at the moment as she is 15 and i dont think will last much longer and we will get another collie. They are a fantastic breed if you understand them and what they are bred for, they are the best.
 
I've 2 collies x labs who are brothers, Sam is really labby and just looks like a black and white lab, but Max has a lot more collie in him and spends ages trying to round up the hens, horses and my 5 pet sheep, but none of them pay any attention to him and when the sheep get fed up with him running circles around them they run at him and chase him out of the field!! I think he probably would've been a good working dog as he's very intellegent unlike Sam who wont even go into the field with the sheep because when he was just a puppy Bertie the ram head butted him and sent him rolling down the hill so now he's terrified of sheep!!
