Lizziecollie - don't take it as a personal attack. If you ask another question, about a less touchy subject, I'm sure you would get answers that were more amusing. There is just really no fun way to answer your question.
I could say that I was going to stop breeding and start getting my Collies from BYBs because I'm tired of the expense of health testing, competition, etc. But then I'd have to discuss the health issues I could run into because they aren't aware. Really nice people, sweet dogs, but they unknowingly produce pups with dermatomyositis, lupus, epilepsy, PRA, cardiomyopathy, and hip dysplasia. They're really sorry because all they wanted was to have a litter of puppies to give to friends and family from their two really sweet Collies. See how that can't turn out good? No one meant anything against you, but there isn't a pretend situation for this subject.
Try something else and see the response. How about "What type of leash do you like?" That could bring about links to designs, materials, lengths, or collectors like me that have about 5 or more leashes per dog, depending upon our activity. See where that could lead? Don't be afraid of the responses, just pick a different subject!
