God Makes Border Collies

[parkerbrown-nesbit]

You forgot to add the hypnotic Border Collie stare. I bred, raised, and trained Border Collies, and I've seen a single dog stare down a fully grown Hereford bull who didn't want to go where she was herding him to. After about two minutes of the staring contest, he gave up and trotted meekly to the gate.

“They’re so stupid, I love it!”

My dog summed up in one sentence

"You're going to invade a country three times to make a dog?"
Totally worth it, best dogs ever.

"Their so stupid I love it!"

I've only ever had 1 dumb cross Border and she was nuts, they have brains and as much madness as those brains. She was the exception; all of the madness and none of the brains. No idea what she was crossed with, but, she still herded other animals, her favourite was our 3 cats.

"no, humans still exist" 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 This is soooo accurate!

[icarusbinns]

This is so border collies!
I adore them so much

Workaholic… like the border collie that was ejected from a car during a wreck. He was found a few days later on a sheep farm… herding sheep. ‘Dude really got yeeted into his dream job’ and the farmer said, “I don’t know where this dog came from, he doesn’t have a collar… who does he belong to?”

Sometimes I pretend I can't see my bordercollie when he is crouching down to make him think he is good at being stealthy

When my parents bought their farm they got a border collie in with the deal. He was hilarious. He was hell on wheels vs anything four legged. 3AM on a summer night and a rabbit in the garden? We were all awake. But never expect him to guard the house. Nope. Anyone and everyone could drive up the lane and he would be "Oh! Two-legs! Welcome to our farm! Let me show you where the unlocked front door is! So nice to see you! Have a nice visit!"

Hilarious and accurate, not to mention highly ironic, given that Border Collies score #1 on the intelligence list. Madness and genius are separated by a fine line that they play hopscotch with all day!

"They're so stupid, I love it!"

*Meanwhile border collies being the smartest dog breed*

"I wrote the Bible and retired". 😂😂.
I love the create a dog with god ones. God is so unpredictably fun or icy, and flips in such a wonderful way 😅.

We had a border collie and black lab mix, and she was the sweetest dog. She loved babies, she would just sit next to me when I was holding our firstborn, and just want to cuddle, and once he was big enough to be walking around, she'd lay on the floor next to him so he could climb all over her. Like, actively avoid the kid-free areas because having her ears pulled on and eyes accidentally jabbed was worth having the baby on her (we trued to prevent him hurting her, of course, but accidents happen). She knew exactly where the yard boundaries were, and we could have her off leash in our open yard and she wouldn't cross her boundaries. She knew exactly where the kids were supposed to be in the yard, and would herd them with her body to keep them where they were supposed to be. Sadly, we lost her at 7 years old to surprise health issues.

Our university had therapy dogs for students to pet today. There was a 3-legged border collie that did tricks. It was the most popular dog at the event.

[triciac.]

Hahahaha! “It makes them invisible?” “Well, no.”

[whitneydouglas]

My sister had a Border Collie, he was so smart. Bandit was a grand champion in agility and figured out little things that annoyed each of the humans he was regularly around, and he would do that one thing to drive you nuts. Only when you were around, and only to you. Cause he enjoyed messing with people. Except my sister, he loved her beyond reason. She still has his ashes, almost a decade since his death and lists him as her first child, my niece as her second.

"They crouch down a little." So that's where morons attempting to sneak up on someone in terrible movies learned it. Good to know.

Border Collie Mom here and my dog (Dodge) has his ears on high alert right now... you know, just in case he needs to herd anything. But the Border Collie Crouch is epic to watch ... not gonna lie!

[jamesodwyer]

My border collie was a sneak thief. I still remember when he popped up on my parents bed while they were distracted talking to me, did the collie stealth crouch, then stole a piece of toast out of their hand before bolting. Funniest thing ever.

Almost as funny: watching him 'herding' my mother and her vacuum cleaner.

Border Collies are my favourite breed

[PunkRockBarbie]

My mom has a border collie who is unfortunately deaf and blind due to age.
She still demands to play frisbee. Its absolutely arguable!

Had a neighbor who's son would zoom by my house on his skateboard being pulled by their border collie. Their energy is amazing. True working dog.
