The same superior and admirable traits that make this breed a great working dog often present a paradox for the average pet owner....pet owners do not realize that this loving and extremely intelligent dog is also very energetic and may spend time chasing cars and children, chewing, and generally misbehaving if his energy is not expended in a positive manner.
--Janet E. Larson, The Versatile Border Collie

Due to legal liability concerns, I have decided to close BC-Rescue-L. The mailing list is no longer operational.

Please join me in subscribing and actively participating in a newly-created Border Collie rescue mailing list owned by Diane Pagel. She has planned topical round tables and directed classes among other things which will be invaluable. Subscription information is available on the Web at <http://www.onelist.com/subscribe.cgi/Border_Collie_Rescue>.
