Wow,
Id have to say that i totally agree with Brilliant dawn. You guys are being immature and selfish. You dont want things to change. Well news to all of you its the future things are going to change and improve and you guys arent going to stop it. As for the stud books being closed id have to see that. There are way to many breeders especcially in the USA who breed their BORDER collies in conformation. You all might as well give up already. Its been 10 years the popularity of the Border collie in shows is already way to popular. There are over 25 breeders that breed BORDER collies for show in the USA plus people who have them for pets and show them as well. Plus all the people from Diffrent countries who send their Borders to here to be shown.
Seriousely look at the big picture and Grow up! :cool:
