Title: Colliesense.
Post by: Stormin on February 07, 2006, 19:33:21

I wonder if our two Border Collies are trying to tell SWMBO something. :?  They get in my the 90 with no trouble, but will only get in her car if she shows them their leads. Even then, Rusty will sometimes go and hide under the S1. :D

the landrover signifies an exciting journey

the car signifies the vet visit

Nope! Nothing to do with the vet.  They like him, unlike my old collie cross. :evil:   I used to have to sit on him. :shock:

Had a try colour border collie for 8 years, boy was he mad :? , tryed every thing to calm him down, used to go for a run of a night & take him with me all he would do was run in a circle around me, for every mile I ran he would do three, & never get tied :shock: , the kids named him Gizmo as that is what he looked like when he was born, had him as a rescue dog as the farmer wanted to put a pellet in him due to he could not sell him or work him :evil: , god rest his sole & the german we had before him, got a Boxer now :roll: , think the breader had his brain removed before we bought him :wink: , MAD as two march hares.

Both of my Collies loved to go in the Discovery (& it's other LR predecessors)

Sadly, Jack (http://forums.mud-club.com/viewtopic.php?t=16682) never got to go in the 'Heritage' :(bigcry):, but Gypsy likes it.
She'll just lay down nice & quiet in it.

Jack used to bound about like an idiot (in any vehicle) trying to look out of all the windows at  the same time

For some reason they both used to sit in the trailer when it was stored in the garden as well :?

Ours doesn't like any car, mainly as it usually means a trip to the vet's is very close. We have to sedate her before we take her lol

I had a collie like that. If a car door was open she was in and it didn't matter whose it was. Fortunatley she had a disk with my phone number on.  I made several trips to the animal refuge in Carlisle to collect her. She could also scale an 8ft wall.
