[QUOTE="Howdyjabo, post: 746087, member: 391"] Get a dog from someone that has been doing more with the parents than you expect to be doing with yours. And make sure there are generations of dogs(actually working) behind the parents. Careful with the Aussie-- very few real working lines left. Don't get sold on buying for the agilty/obedience stuff-- most good working dogs can do decent at those- very few bred for those activities can work well too. Do not do much with the rigid obedience till you get the dog working. It can get them screwed up looking to you to tell them what to do instead of following their instincts then looking to you for help or instruction. [/QUOTE]
