New pics of Mick the Border Collie -- post your dog pics here

[LostinVA]

Mick is just about to turn 10 months old. I have a couple pictures from his playdate yesterday.

Here he is all focused on Haruka, who was getting the ball for him.


And they're off! Mick with his girlfriends, Perky and Dare.

1. Great lookin' dog you got there!

Look at the focus on those three. Incredible breed.

[LostinVA]

3. Yeah -- unfortunately, he wasn't so focused with his herding lesson earlier

He did one perfect outrun and fetched the sheep, then decided he was going to go exploring.

12. He's young.

My niece's husband grew up on a sheep ranch in Colorado with working dogs. He says they don't develop persistence till they're between 2 and 3. Until then they can be iffy...really good or totally airheaded or a combo. That's why they always pair a young dog with an older one when working.

2. I would, but somebody decided to keep the dog I was going to adopt

because, as we all know, what he needs is more dogs. :rofl:

[LostinVA]

4. The dog would have just eaten LeftyKid anyway

[LeftyMom]

6. I'm dissapointed enough already.

Kidding. He's a good kid. :)

16. Mick loves going for car rides, too

Your dogs look quite happy.

[taterguy]

30. Wouldn't you be happy if you got to hang out with me all the time?

That's a semi-rhetorical question.

7. Cody, our Border Collie...

RIP, sweet boy...




Buddy, who we got after Cody died, with our munchkins Daniel and Leah:

[LostinVA]

17. Both are very cute dogs

I love the way Cody is laying.

[driver8]

22. He used to always lay with his legs crossed like that...

it was pretty funny.

[LostinVA]

23. One of my old cats did that, too

Like a prim little lady (which NO BC ever is!). And, she was black and white, too.

8. Here's some doggies

Max is no longer with me. It was becoming selfish on my part to keep him without being able to give him the time and attention he needed. So he went to live on a farm with a nice family with 3 kids and lots of running room.


The Late Nikita, she lived to be 13.

31. I use to have a dog

named Nikita - Dame Nikita von Erwin - to be exact (she was a registered G. Shepherd). We called her Kita.

Dumbest damn dog on the face of the earth. She ate an entire FROZEN chicken once. I still don't know how she did it!




psssssst - who's the cute guy? Think you can hook me up? ;)

9. What a great-looking dog!!

Aw...that makes me miss my old border collie!

:hi: :loveya:

[driver8]

13. I know...I miss my Border Collie, too.

We lost our BC Cody almost three years ago...I still miss him.

(I posted his picture in this thread -- he was such a handsome boy!)

What a cutie! They're all cuties! :loveya:

14. I love to watch dogs work. The BBC used to have a show called "A Man and His Dog."

It was sheep herding trials from England and Wales. I used to get up at 7am on Sunday to watch it. My wife thought I was crazy!! (This was before we got Tivo...)

[LostinVA]

24. Oh! That's a great show!

[China_cat]

11. My 2...Elwood and Jake

[Tripper11]

15. Here's Sandy my nap/sleep buddy and all around great dog!

Sun dawg Sandy!!!



Her corner...can you tell?

[BarenakedLady]

19. Hehe

My Emma curls into a ball just like that.

[Midlodemocrat]

18. That is a beautiful dog!

And a not so unattractive trophy wife!

:bounce:

[LostinVA]

25. She kisses better, though

[malta blue]

20. Mick looks like he is loads of fun (and work too)

:hi:

Here are my beloved dogs

21. Double the fun

with a pair of bitches.

Cheers, Mugu

[Madrone]

26. DAWGIES!!!!!!!!!!!

There's not a bad looking dog in this thread. They are all so beautiful!

Here's my big-baby-dawg-lovey-tatoehead, Bodhi:

[havocmom]

32. Sweet pets you have there...

all THREE of them! :)

Looks like the 'new' guy is definitely pet approved :rolf: I think that's how we girls know we have the right gent ;)

[Orsino]

27. For Obie...

...'cause he doesn't have his own Photobucket account:

[hippywife]

28. Our puppy, Charlee.

We just got her two weeks ago, when she was 7 weeks old, and already she's growing! She's already lost her puppy fat and is getting taller. She won't be a puppy much longer.

[OhioChick]

29. Everyone has such gorgeous pups!

Here's one of mine....as a puppy and 4 years later. :)

[driver8]

33. What a gorgeous dog!

Those eyes are amazing!!

[OhioChick]

34. Thanks....She's got such ice blue eyes!

Your Border Collie was beautiful. I had a Collie/Sheperd mix that I lost 3 years ago, too. Best dog that I ever had...no dog that I ever get will compare to her.

35. My parents used to have an Aussie Shephard named Mick

They had to put him down a few years ago.
