Thunder Bay, Ontario, Great White North | Whatever you do, get a dog that will be good with your kids - you will never forgive yourself if your dog injures one of your kids or even worse one of their friends. We currently have a flat coat retriever, she is gentle as a lamb but pretty much useless around cattle, but I wasn't looking for a stock dog when we got her.
I had a Border Collie, was a little too aggressive with my dairy cows, he decided to snap at me once when I was wearing a yellow rain slicker, he lasted about 5 minutes after that. I have ZERO tolerance for a dog that will bite someone, just glad he didn't decide to get nasty with one of my kids.
I know a couple people with nasty facial scars they got from the family dog when they were little, please be careful when choosing a family dog. |
whats a good cattle dog?
