I have a Kelpie, and I live in a one bedroom apartment. Everything I've read says they are very very very ill suited for apartment life, maybe I just got lucky. Though when I take her to the dog part ('bout 7 acers.) she runs around and tries to "herd" any other dog that is away from their owner. It's kind of crazy to watch but funny.
My Granda worked 7 Highland Collie, (usually called Boarder Collie but the Highland is a wee bit "squwattier" if you get my drift. I found 2 Kelpie pups running in the rain in Texas and took them home....I had never heard of a Kelpie, I had 3 acers and they ran every inch. Very smart, easily trained BUT CAUTION these are, as the lads say, WORKING dogs they need the challenge and the space.
Not close at all. In a league of their own. Much smarter and have greater stamina. They show potential from 6 weeks. Border collies are great pets and well bread Kelpies are flat out working dogs.
Thanx, i'm a sheperd in the netherlands, and I have worked with 12 border collies. The most show their potential from 6 weeks to. I'm oriëntating for a new good dog, but the dog must be fit for the climate here ( -15 C sometimes ). Thanx for your comment.
lol, we brought a kelpie for a domestic family dog, she nevers stops, and on the few attempts i have got her tired, she has had a drink and 5 min rest then at it again.

Thanks - this reminds me of my Kelpie/Shepherd mix, who would "herd me" when we would go running in the morning on a soccer field and in a stadium. Hope whoever won him/her gave him/her a great home. Very intelligent dogs!
