| Buckeye, Alright, thanks for the tips .-. |

| Noli, that's fine. Just get one with proper lineage and proven herding parents. Just happen to have pups now....lolz |
| Nolified |
| Buckeye, True, but I think I'll have enough time in the future to train the pup myself |
| Full Stride Farm |
| Definitely need to get the properly bred Border Collie for herding - and even then not every pup makes a super herding dog. Lots of time and training. There are already trained herding dogs available, but yo'u're going to pay for that service |

| Lol, looks like i'll have to do a bit more research before I decide on which breeds to get .-. |

| Also worth noting that being a collie doesn't necessarily make it a good sheepdog. At my old job we rounded up the sheep on foot and with a quad most of the time, as the lovely "sheepdog" was generally pretty shite xD Although he did save my arse when I discovered the tups had escaped while walking the farm dogs once bless him |

| you're better off getting a dog breed that's designed for livestock guarding like pyranese, anatolian, or akbash |
| Full Stride Farm |
| If you want to guard livestock, you are better off to get a LGD breed like Great Pyrennes, Anatolian, or even a couple of donkeys |

| Just be aware Dobermans aren't outdoor dogs, have no undercoat. Though they can be happy if you get them a dog coat, used to do that for my pair when we went hiking in the snow |

| I might just get a Doberman to guard the cattle, chickens, etc.. And get a Border Collie to help with the herding |

| Border Collies are not neurotic if trained. Well bred ones are easy to train "off switch" as the saying goes. And actually, over stimulation creates more neurotic behavior issues than people realize. Proper manners training, normal physical exercise, and some training to stimulate the brain, (like trick training, or easy sport skills, puzzles, etc) and they are lovely family dogs |

| dobermans melt in the rain, but they're very loyal and smart. They're not quite as "need a job" as the border collies, but also need a lot of exercise. And some people look at you funny |
| Minerva |
| Would not advise a collie as a house pet- they go properly neurotic unless you can spend hours and hours every day doing things with them |
| Minerva |
| What do you want the dog to do? Collie would be the obvious choice for herding, but if you want something big and scary as a guard dog they might not serve you as well |
