Border Collie! We have had two of them, and with a little patience and training they will be the best thing you have ever owned. Our collie loads and moves hogs, watches gates, and heards cattle from BEHIND them. We got her as a pup and it took some work and some patience but in the end she does an amazing job. Most cattle dogs will do this but she enen distracts the cow when we are processing a new calf. Any cow calf guy will tell that its a nice feeling not having a cow breathing down your throat while working with a calf! haha They are hyper but besides dragging whatever wild animal she kills to the back door of the house she doesnt really do anything that affects the livestock at all.
