Help I have a Border Collie / mix Dog He is 1 1/2 yrs old, he is a very smart dog, The other night I had to go looking for him and found him on a deer.... still alive! He has a sisiter that is 6 months old and is a Black Lab /mix. she to was with him shortly getting in on the action. I pulled him off. and scolded him allthe way home, this moring I let them out and went in to bake a cake, 30 min. i called them to come in and no one came. I put on my jacket and when out to look for them. Just as I started up the 4 wheeler they both came running around the shop and both are cover in blood. I called to the boder collie and asked him to show me what he caught and he took me to the dead deer. Is this something I shuld be worried about? How do I stop this from ever happening again, some one help! There must be a way I do not want to have to put him down. thank you
Good for you.......
And I understand about turning the laptop around...a couple of years ago our doggy’s health was rapidly declining so I started looking around for other breeders. I felt like I was two-timin’ her if she walked in the room.
Sheesh...
An oldy but a goody. She never called the police. Mmmmm.....good ribs.
I loved that thread!
I wonder what (if anything) was actually said to the neighbor?
No tellin what happened...
And scolding her all the way home is a waste of time. She'll know you're angry but she won't know at what.
This, if true, is a disaster in the making. Border Collies are sports cars. Don't get one if you don't know how to drive.
That is one handsome doggie!
May I risk everyone’s laughter and kidding?
I had a b ig standard poodle, a huge gentleman and the smartest dog in the world.
The latest standard in the family,,we all have them,,is a ninny. He came to visit us on our lake and we took him out at night and a goose honked at him. He melted like a baby he was so terrified.
But they are smart and gentle and protective and wonderful. Much smarter than labs.
Shoot the dog.
Yep.
I love it!!!!
My Snickers does that with a big lips over teeth grin.
Aw, I bet that’s adorable!
As opposed to a German Shepherd Emu?
IATZ
GSE!
Yep! We have two EMU’S!!!!!!!! LOL!!!
Is that actually your dog???? All I can say is WOW what a beautiful chunk of canine!
I wish...it’s just an American Staffordshire I found I like....I would like one though
when my youngest are thru with their allergy regimens (dog dander)
> I can’t imagine a border collie going toe-to-toe with a deer and not needing at least some stitches.
Hmmm... It would depend on the deer, ay. Border collies are very smart and agile, and deer are none too bright. I can almost imagine it, if several border collies were to work as a team. Still, the BS detector is humming away here...
I think budhead123 had a few too many before the New Year’s Day party. I have a number of deer living on the golf course behind our house. They leave the dogs and coyote’s in the dark when chased. This troll got ZOTTED, instead of its dog killing deer.
