    All of the evidence presented on this thread so far tends to suggest your dog is a real hardcase @Ground Control?!?

    Looks smart Gibo.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    had same discussion with RUMPY the other day walking off the hill.
    for me a heading dog is a job discription just like huntaway or pig dog.....
    the breeeding of said dog isnt as important as how it preforms the task its asked to do.
    heading dogs have natural tendency that has been bred to improve....go get stock and bring it back to the boss.... classic is to get young pup in a small paddock with sheep,go stand in middle of paddock and say nothing unless dog goes to bite...it will all of its own accord,without knowing why round up all the sheep and bring them towards you and keep doing so. also called a strong eyed sheep dog...it eyeballs the sheep till they go away in desired direction,towards the boss man.
    along similar vein get in behind a mob of sheep with young huntaway pup and rush towards them shouting and clapping and pup will run up and start barking and continue to do so..its job discription is to hunt the stock away..bark at them to make them move,usually away from you .
    good looking pup whatever its genetics

    not to put too fine of point on it..but a border collie IS a heading dog..... it should be very keen on sheep and wont bark unless put under pressure.
