Hi everyone - I finally got around to finishing up the breed comparison chart I started all those months ago. I'd gotten so much input that I was overwhelmed there for a while and just ignored it. well, no longer. The basic ES/BC/Aussie breed comparison chart is complete. In some ways this is a fools quest since there is so much over lap between the breeds and telling them apart can be almost impossible but I figured it was worth a try, especially since many BC and Aussie people don't even know ES exist and would gladly claim any ES that excells as one of theirs and many shelters figure they are just collie crosses (which they are, sort of) Feel free to make suggestions but keep in mind ths is a guide and not a difinitive statement. Also feel free to pass this on to any rescue, shelter, BC, or Aussie people you know... it's at: http://www.uvm.edu/~jhilborn/whatbreed.html and will be accessible from the rescue page - jan [log in to unmask] http://www.uvm.edu/~jhilborn/rescue.html CUR Staion #117
