Do you have a dog?


What breed? I'm thinking about getting a border-collie. They seem to be great dogs. How are they as guard dogs?

reply

No

reply

No. I think pets should be banned.

reply

Only pets you put in cages.

reply

Or socks you put in the dirty clothes basket.

reply

Is that wrong?

reply

The worst is when they start slobbering all over your face. Even though they say a dog's mouth is cleaner than humans.

reply

I do not, too much work atm...

I imagine a Border Collie would be a very loyal guardian and devoted family member, but probably very energetic and exhausting

reply

You've gotta get one who drives.

I need a new driver since Toonces failed the written part of the driving test:/

Shogun, I had a Border Collie as my childhood dog and her picture still hangs on my wall now.

The entire perimeter of, Iโ€™m guessing a half acre yard was stomped down completely from her pacing. They are SO intense. She would never tired out. I have a German Shepard now and there is no comparing the two as far as intensity. My advice to anyone wanting a Border Collie is to have a large yard and a lot of time to dedicate to them.

reply

Yeah, they look like they'd wear me out!
It comes with their job description

reply

Border collies are working dogs and unless they get tons of stimulating exercise, they do not make very good house pets. They're very intelligent, but they can be very destructive if they don't get enough exercise and challenging activities every day.

reply

I assume Huskies are the same way.

reply

They are super smart.

WE HAD A BORDER COLLIE...GREAT DOG..THEY ARE A WORKING DOG THOUGH,SO IF YOU SELECT A BORDER COLLIE,YOU NEED TO BE PREPARED FOR LOTS OF WALKS,AND FETCH ,ETC...WELL WORTH THE WORK THOUGH.

A corgipoo.

I had a white German Sheppard. She was with me for 14 years.

reply

White German Shepherds are gorgeous. The ones Iโ€™ve worked with have all been so sweet but also neurotic. Was your girl sweet and a little crazy too?

reply

Yeah. She was a lot of work, but so loving. She had been abused as a puppy before I got her too, so there was massive distrust to start. I mean who abuses a puppy?

reply

Unfortunately a lot of people do. Or they just leave their dogs in crates or outside all of the time and wonder how they ended up with such a โ€œbad dogโ€. It infuriates me.

reply

Iโ€™m glad yours got to spend a happy and full life with you.๐Ÿ˜Š

reply

๐Ÿ˜Š Thanks. Sometimes I think she saved me more than I saved her.

reply

Beautiful except for RBS (rusty butt syndrome). ;)
