You Talkin` ta me?

Farm dog 001

Nothin` better than a good Collie dog! 

I took this today, although on  long chain, he is as friendly as anything. he`s on the chain to stop him continually chasing the bloody chickens!  Its Fiona`s dog, a fine working Collie.  She did have 12 chickens!!!!

  1. Golly, what a beautiful dog. Ours is a cross between a collie and a springer. I would definitely have a collie every time, so clever and so loyal, not to mention beautiful.

  2. My dogs only look that intent when they see me eating something!

  5. Now she has only ten, thats why when not workin` he`s on a chain. Notice the feathers on his lips.

  6. Fine specimen. Looks like the star of the Jeff Bridges movie A DOG YEAR.

  7. I sold an 8 week old collie pup and a week later the lady called me so happy because the pup had herded her chickens into his dog run and was guarding the door so they couldn't get out. They love working chickens, or cats, or kids, just about anything that moves. You should see my Blue trying to do it to swallows.
