[QUOTE="CopperBeech, post: 7755905, member: 8925"] Talking of intelligence in collies, they vary a lot. I have a beautiful dog now, and very stylish with it, but she is thick as pig muck. Looks great when working in hand but as soon as she needs to really think for herself she struggles. My old dog is by far the most intelligent dog I’ve ever worked and probably the best all round collie I’ve ever seen. I am currently trying to find a replacement for her, and having no luck. It’s made me realise that there are a hell of a lot of average dogs out there that folk think are great and a lot of dogs bred for trialling which don’t have the head for what I want the dog to be able to do. Maybe I’ve been spoiled by the old bitch! Anyway, if anyone has anything really special for sale, let me know! [/QUOTE]
