Thanks for the link. I am intersted in getting an English Shepherd for
our next dog.
Remember when everyone used to talk about the old farm shepherd dogs
and how nice they were and very hard-working? Those were English
Shepherds. I particularly would like to find the natural bob-tailed variety.
We have had them in the past.
English Shepherds have lost popularity to the Border Collies, but I
think they are making a bit of a comeback.
Again, thanks.

FH,
As few English Shepherd breeders as there are, and given you affinity for the breed, you might consider raising them. I've only recently discovered the true English Shepherd. I have a theory that English Shepherds got so popular way back that the population was watered down which is happening to Border Collies.

Is this a joke? Ok I'll bite, no never heard of them, what about them?
Seriously, I haven't even heard of them. I'll google them and see what is there.
