Love to see a happy dog, do you bath him???

by **Emm** » Fri Nov 24, 2006 6:31 pm

I bet he loves every minute of getting up to the eyes in muck.

Yes I have to bath and brush him often. If he is'nt filthy he smells of seawater as he goes to the beach often. Has anyone else got a collie and dont they shed hair all year round! It drives me crazy at times and keeps blocking my hover.

Well, I've got a rottweiler collie cross and he casts ALL the time. I have a Dyson and it is good but often I have to go round with a damp sponge to make sure it's all up - ten minutes later...it's all back!! :rolleye11:

You have beautiful collies with great markings.

My Tyke would fit in nicely with your pack and they could all show him some doggy manners, something he is lacking I'm afraid.

When we bought him he was the runt of the litter and has an inch overbite which makes him look rather like goofy the disney dog and he was unable to suckle his mother properly. This made him smaller compared to his brothers and they must of bullied him. No matter how much we tried to intergrate him with other dogs he was always scared and even now 10 years on tries to avoid them at all costs. With good feeding though he is now much bigger than the average collie so even the little ones can catch up. He still thinks he is a lap dog though and always makes me laugh with his strange character. I dont think he was blessed with much intelligence either.

I've let you see his best photos now I'll find a photo to show you his impressions

And to you - he is the most beautiful dog in the world.
Correct?
