What's your favourite collie that you do not own?

Honestly, there are so many stunning ones (waverly, is kinda amazing with designing) but I'd have to say it's a close tie between #68 and #40. Seriously beautiful collies!

Tell us about one of your collie's weird quirks! If you don't own one, have you any quirks planned for future collies?

I don't own any collies quite yet (rip) but I've always thought it would be cute to have a canine character with the quirk of *frequent* spinning. My real-life dog, Teddy (cream Coton de Tulear if anyone's interested) has this quirk; she's a bit of a high-anxiety dog, so we think it's either tied to that or potentially OCD, but it's always been an adorable quirk of hers. Even though it can make taking her for walks a bit of a challenge (and watching her can make you dizzy lol), it's kind of a running joke in the family and we've affectionately dubbed her the "Teddy Tornado". cx

It's gotta be #39! I love red and tan together, they go so well with each other. I quite like the curly fur lines too.

Athena doesn't like to admit she has any weird quirks or anything of the sort, but she secretly believes herself to be a bird in her past life and often dreams of flying far into the sky. She watches birds not because she likes them, no, she genuinely thinks that one day she'll find her previous bird family.

As for Fintan, his quirk is pretty obvious even if he doesn't outright say it: he has a strange attraction to fire and the smell of smoke. Often he'll fall asleep near campfires, despite most dogs' obvious fear of the flames spreading. He's unsure why he is so relaxed around them, but as someone who doesn't get much sleep, fire is a blessing to insomnia.

A few more questions, since folk seemed to get a kick/mileage out of the others! <3

Code: Select all

[b]Conformation competitors![/b] How does/do your dogs/dog act in the ring? Are they refined, regal; or are they a bit of a handful? Do they enjoy showing, or would they rather be getting their paws dirty? Whether your dog's a diva or ready to start a riot for just [i]being[/i] there, I wanna hear!

Code: Select all

[b]Agility competitors![/b] How does/do your dogs/dog act on the course? Were they born with four left feet and stumble over every obstacle, or are they the epitome of grace? Or maybe they're somewhere in between? Tell us your tales from agility!

Code: Select all

[b]Herding competitors![/b] How does/do your dogs/dog act while working animals? Are they the most drivey thing you've ever met and live to work, or maybe they're lazy as all get out? Does your dog prefer working with a certain animal? Any funny tales from the field you'd like to share?

Code: Select all

[b]Non owners![/b] What discipline are you most excited about participating in, and why? Do you think you'll trial your dogs in all three, or have dogs dedicated to one or even two types?

I hope you don't mind me answering a previous question !!

Herding competitors! How does/do your dogs/dog act while working animals?
Weiss would much rather be all dolled up and trot circles around the ring with humans and dogs gawking at him than chase after stubborn irritating creatures. Weiss, ever since he was a puppy, just despises the poor ducks and wants nothing to do with them.
He's indifferent towards the cattle and sheep, but has a soft spot for the goat kids and will happily herd them if he gets to play after.

Yukon will herd anything that moves! the grass, leaves, birds- everything! He lives for working and would run himself to death if he could. If he had to choose one to do every day, for the rest of his life it would definitely be cattle. He loves their smell and stubborn challenging nature.

Heya! I’ve decided to finally join this community. Been looking out for an active canine adopts community for quite some time but they never really became active. Finally changed upon Beaumont Collies. It looks beautiful!
Gonna try and see if I’m able to get my first Beaumont Collie.

[envious.]
