aussie and smooth BORDER COLLIE maybe?

• aussie and smooth BORDER COLLIE maybe? SheltieGirl Posted : 3/30/2007 4:05:14 PM I'm throwing out idea on what my baby Kiwi could be. He's about one year. 50 lbs and 20 inches at the shoulder. He was listed as an Aussie mix..and I'm getting him TOMORROW! Wahooooooooo! [] I got two votes that he mixed with a short coated border collie..I dunno though. He is HIGH energy and loves to run, run, run! I can't wait to get him! Planning on doing obedience and agility with him!

• micksmom Posted : 3/30/2007 4:13:43 PM Did you post this someplace else as well?  I'm only asking because I swear I saw that picture someplace, "listed" as an Aussie mix.  I didn't see anything about smooth BC, but that's what I was thinking the mix was.  Of course, I could just be losing it and imagined the whole thing!  LOL  Anyway- good luck with your new addition.  He's gorgeous! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• mrv Posted : 3/30/2007 4:28:59 PM border collies come in smooth and rough coats.  He has decidedly aussie characteristics (more bone and substance).  so an aussie mix makes sense to me 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• Kara Posted : 3/30/2007 7:04:04 PM I might even say ACD/Aussie (am I crazy?) because of the build, long tail, and *almost* ears. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• SheltieGirl Posted : 4/1/2007 8:34:37 AM You know, I meet him finally! He was just a pup in that pic and I'm 99% sure he's mixed with Border Collie. Even his foster mom suspects that. She told me to put him on interceptor as opposed to heartguard due to that. He's at least partial mix with BC. He's leggy and according to the shelter..approximently 9 months old now. I suspect he's a little older 11-12..could be wrong though.   He's FAST! Loves to run. A great dog! Friendly and loving! A real nuzzler as he's learning to trust. He's my shadow..hehe. If he does something wrong and I tell him "off" or "no"..he comes to me to almost apolize. He's really sweet. I love him. 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

• P Smitty Posted : 4/2/2007 8:35:58 AM I think bc/aussie is a possibility. Cute dog!

• brookcove Posted : 4/2/2007 10:23:04 PM He falls well within the range of purebred Border Collie looks. Merles are not all that rare and of course smooths are quite common. He is merle not ticked like an ACD, elminating completely the possiblity of any ACD - the dog would have to have some ticking as that is a dominant characteristic. He's cute - congrats! 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.

Oh I wish you lived closer to me because I'm still trying to place Toffee (dog in my avie pic) with a good home and her personality is just about everything aussie and would make a wonderful agility dog. I see a lot of aussie in Kiwi, sure is a cute little guy.  The tail does make me think BC.  You are going to have so much fun with him once he comes home.[] 0 LIKE Like Share You have posted to a forum that requires a moderator to approve posts before they are publicly available.
