The collies are territorial but not sure if they couldn't be swayed by a chew toy. Like Avantes mom.

Nice save. That was almost a boring post.

I'm biased as hell towards BC's; mine is by far the smartest dog I've ever come across. Agree 100% on the 3 breeds you listed.

Dogs are too much work. I love them, but they require more than I'm willing to give ergo I don't own a pet.

My sis owns two border collies. They are very good. I wouldn't mind getting one if I wanted to account for an additional dog financially. My GS and G.Retriever are expensive a.f.

If you get a smart enough breed and have a doggie door; we've found that they truly aren't as much work as we were concerned about. The reward is much bigger than the work, imo.

There is such a thing as smart pit, like you said you've yet to meet one. My roommates dog used to trip me out with the amount of commands he taught her. For whatever reason the dog was obsessed with birds, he could say "where's the bird" and the dog would systematically go outside and scan the trees looking for one, and then stay staring at it until he acknowledged it. How you teach a dog that, I have no clue, but she learned.

That's how it always starts. The first question is ALWAYS "Have you ever owned a pit?".

I'm skilled in the art of trolling, hard to get mad online when you piss people off purposely yourself.

Except you have to make sure your fence is dog proof, get the shots, fix the issues, feed the dog, clean up the shit, watch it die. No thanks.
