Hello,
I have the puppy want really bad right now, and with my career change to be a dog trainer, I want a sport dog now. I still plan on getting a koolie, whenever that time comes. But for now, I think I will start with a smooth coated border collie.
I am starting to do research on several breeders and have a few in mind that have been recommended, but I would like to find as many as I can to help with research.
Ideally, I plan on doing mostly agility and disc with this dog. However, I would also like to dabble in dock diving and rally (and maybe some other stuff, who knows).
So preferably a breeder with smooth-coated BC's that are doing performance sports or from working lines.
I want dogs that have a reputation of enjoying (or at least neutral to) other dogs and people, good drives, but also have an off switch where they can curl up on the couch. I do not want dogs that are super soft.
Know of any breeders I should check out in the midwest?
