Hi
I’ve been a lurker here for years. I wanted to contribute but was always busy (or is the better word, overwhelmed?) with the homestead to write.
We got a mixed farm collie - according to Sue Hogan she’s a mixture of three collies. Therefore from what I’ve learned, she’d be a Type and not a Breed.
I have learned to never underestimate a Type.
A part of her line is from the venerable Tish Toren.
We got Bodhi from Sue Hogan 12 years ago.
Bodhi is still amazing and healthy and I need to connect with y’all and describe her. She has blown our minds.
She’s been our homestead dog and has worked hard for us. I’ve been a dog person since I was a child. And this dog,
I’ve never seen anything like her.
Is this the place to share?
Is Sue Hogan still here? Is Tish? Gratitude to you both.
Best wishes to you all here.
Kent Byron
Petersham, MA

She is old & on a downhill slope now; after she dies, we will be looking for a farm collie, sometime in the next year.
