Thanks for all the great input so far guys. Please keep it coming.
Let me clarify things a bit. My wife and I are both 32. No kids and do not plan on any.
Her favorite breed is the German Shepherd and mine is the Collie. I plan on training the German Shepherd to be a protection dog, but I would like both of them to be identically trained.
Do you feel it is an unrealistic belief that the Collie can be trained to do the same PROTECTION functions as the German Shepherd?
Based on my three years of working with a vet I really don't see a problem; however, I have never worked with trainers.
With all of this concern over the breeding problems with Collies, does anyone know of a reputable breeder with a good bloodline of working Collies that has not be corrupted?
Thanks for the help...keep it coming.
