I currently have a mixed breed -- some sort of border collie/aussie/retriever mix.
I definitely want to own a border collie someday. I really dream of a red and white, rough coated one (I would LOVE this girl if I could adopt one now!). I want to get into agility and my current dog, love her though I do, is definitely NOT an agility dog (I'm considering therapy work at some point as that's definitely more up her alley).
I also adore Australian shepherds and would like to rescue a deaf one at some point. I've transported several deaf Aussies to rescue and I love the breed and I think I could give a good home to a deaf one (not blind though as we have too much stuff to ever make the home comfortable for a dog who couldn't see).
All that being said, mixed breeds are still in the potential list...probably herding breed mixes, especially with retrievers. I REALLY love long-haired dogs so plan to stick with dogs with fur I can sink my hands into!
