Yup, rescue dogs are so appreciative.

My wife will be ecstatic when she sees this.

she's a collie
damn those dogs are almost too smart
she's a cross. something else in there too
beautiful

not like my dog. love him as i do. he's not the smartest. but then he's a weimaraner. German lol

 

[Gerry]

Love their color and their shiney coat.

A guy down the road from me has a female. Gorgeous dog but very leery of strangers.

 

[PRED]

yes, beautiful looking dogs. unmistakable. the silver ghost
they don't like anyone passing by, or calling, lots of barks, but freindly as owt when the doors opened. they're silly, very sociable
very rare you get a badun, unlike other breeds, like german shepherd for example

 

[draggar]

she's a collie

Nope, unless it's some collie-mix.

She looks a lot more like an Australian shepherd. She could also be an Australian shepherd / border collie mix (both are extremely intelligent breeds) but she doesn't have any collie (as in Lassie) in her.

I liked it how she (the dog) was smiling and wagging her tail throughout the entire thing - she enjoys this and working with her owner.

Excellent. Thank you!

My wife just informed me that she knew the woman. She won a big international competition in the UK regarding 'freestyle', which I guess was the dancing routine.

I'll try to get more information as I am sure there is some footage (and details) regarding the competition.

Some dogs are smarter than some human

yup. agreed. i said that 3rd line down , she's a mix
they tend to be even more intelligent when a mix also
it's why our royal family are so dense. all that inbreeding
also, when we say 'collie' in the UK, we generally mean a border collie, sorry

I liked it how she (the dog) was smiling and wagging her tail throughout the entire thing - she enjoys this and working with her owner.

it was great fun, wasn't it
she's a rescue dog, they tend to be even more loving when given a great home
because they are so intelligent it probably occupied her mind doing the practice

I must admit to shedding a tear when I saw that live Guy. Many thanks for the YT link mate. What an *amazing* dog!

 

[draggar]

Nope. it all depends on what's been mixed into it - and even then it's no guarantee. The dog has a lot of Aussie in her and since she looks like an Aussie, that's where her temperament and intelligence comes from.

Aww what a great video. Thanks for the share. I had an full bred malamute who someone hit a few months ago. Its the only dog I have ever owned and I felt completely heart broken.

 

[EM @MAJ.com]

I enjoy it.

I also included the video to Station.TV

Which end of the dog are you looking at?

 

[draggar]

Which end of the dog are you looking at?

The whole body. The head is a dead giveaway that it's not a traditional collie (rough or smooth) - and the body is similar to an Aussie shepherd. If it was a merl collie )merl for the coloring) the head would be a lot longer and have small dark eyes.

Looking at the video again - she definitely has some border collie in her (the head and eyes). Regardless - Australian shepherd, border collies, and collies are all very intelligent breeds and very pack loyal, they love to be with their family and love to please their family.

She's put a lot of work into that dog and she treats the dog very well.
