WOW ! what a wonderful dog family. The collie looking at the camera is the image of my old Jess who passed some 20 years ago, a really intelligent BC.

Fantastic picture. Shows how contented they all are to sit together like that. Knew a shepherd who won a bet that he couldn't work 14 sheepdogs altogether, each with a different set of whistle commands.

I really like collies for their loyalty, my Step Dad took on a badly treated collie when she was 18 months old. He was told she was useless and wouldn't work. Dovie was the best working sheepdog I have ever seen. She knew which lambs were on the bottle and would single them out and fetch them to you. She could gather 300 sheep on her own while we gathered another patch of common with the other dogs. She even came out of 'retirement' to show my young collie the ropes. Actually she was saying 'get out of the way, I'll show you how to gather properly'!

Collies are like lurchers, they are very badly treated yet are still so loyal. Great to see someone who loves them better.

Lovely, intelligent looking dogs, Farthing. I especially like the face of the big black guy at the right back.I'm so pleased that they are all loved and cared for now.Every creature deserves to know love and security.
