Zeke is from Kenmare Collies in Pasadena. I was lucky to find him, Check with southern cal collie rescue,

I'm getting another Smooth in a few weeks, my friend lives on a farm and her father-in-law has been training border collies to herd forever...I'm tempted to ask him to help me train a smoothie...whether he's up for the challenge is another thing!

@blamordercollies I have tried boarder collie trainers, be careful because collies dont herd the same way and they try to train them to be a boarder and they just are better herders then boarders

[bigorancho]

@blamordercollies Ive had a hard time finding a good trainer. He dos not heard the same as a boarder as you can see, a lot of border collie trainer only know boarder collies and don't understand the more relaxed composure of the collie

Where is Zeke from? My friend is looking for a well bred sable & white smooth. Do you know of any good breeders? She is in L.A. but will travel if need be or ship. We just want to make sure that the breeder is screening for health, temperament, and brains :-) and want to avoid commercial breeders/puppy mills. Thank you!

@blamordercollies Smooths were used more for drivibg then rough coats you can see that in Zekes test. thats what he wants to do he has had about 6 months of training since the video its a good time for him and I both. you should google sheep herding in your area

@blamordercollies It really was amazing, I'm sure if you look close my jaw is hanging down in wonderment
