Any ideas where else I could look. I’ve emailed the secretary of the ACD society but not had a response.
Even a collie x heeler

Don’t know many others to be honest. I think the society are a waste of time as they are just interested in crufts and proper working dogs will be so far removed from their types.

I have pm'd you but anyone considering these ought to do their research.

I couldn't help but feel there seemed to be a higher prevalence of health issues from the reading up i did. I may be completely wrong but it was the impression i got.

@nacnud have you encountered any issues?

nacnud · Mar 20, 2019

Higher prevalence of issues in the breed in general or in show dogs? I know there may be hearing issues in some of them but I don’t see it any differently to hip issues in labradors or things like that. I don’t think there are any issues in any of our dog’s family, the parents of our original pup were spot on and the dog we mated to her were spot on too. We got the litter of pups vet checked and there no issues so I certainly haven’t experienced anything. The thing I have experienced is their selective hearing... when they decide to continue to do what they were told not to do but their hearing is very good otherwise!

They are pretty rare to find in general, especially working types. The only people I know that have them are the people I got our pup from, the dog we mated her to and the people that bought her pups!

I’ve had a number of people come to me and say can they reserve a pup the next time we have a litter which I have refused to do as it doesn’t sit right with me to be honest. If we decide to have another litter we will just advertise them as usual.

There was a British Australian cattle dog breeders page on Facebook, I mentioned that I had a working bitch and I was looking for a dog to mate with her and they banned me and kicked me off the page. Says it all.

Yes hearing was the biggest concern.

Never forget, that there's no dog so deaf as the one that doesn't want to hear you!

I got my next dog on Tuesday. First 2 days he thought he could pretend to be deaf. His hearing is improving daily.
His previous life of sat on the sofa days are numbered too.

It's about time there was some sort of "club" or "society" (oh gawd, did I really say that?) to oversee genuine working dogs and their interests to counter the harm The Kennel Club is doing. Britain used to be where the world came for working dogs. Not any more. There is going to be an awful mess when this pandemic is over.

Well Said. A girl in the next village to us had a litter of second generation Cockerpoo puppies ~ seven of them and they sold at £3200 each - a fortnight after they were born. The lunacy of Covid-19.

Saw this had come back to the top and was hoping he’d had another litter!
